Finny Moore gazes through her master bedroom skylights each night and appreciates being alive.
She and her husband, Ron, added the skylights, among other renovations, to make the house comfortable during her cancer treatment when they bought the home in 2009. Doctors told her she was supposed to die in 2011, she said. But after she survived and went into remission, the Moores added a structure in 2014 with an infrared sauna so she could enjoy its detoxification benefits.
“That was part of staying healthy after cancer,” she said.
A kitchen renovation also provided a larger, up-to-date space for the couple, who rarely eat out, to cook healthy, organic food. They retained the architectural details they loved, such as big windows and doors, in their midcentury modern home.
“It’s our happy place,” Finny said.
