Re: Big Barn痴 Retirement Farm Shop
We moved into our house almost three years ago. At first we were a bit sensitive as to what you could see in our bathroom from the road, because we can clearly and easily see cars driving by and have near floor to ceiling windows in that direction.
However, after living there a while, it's become readily apparent that unless you come to a complete stop, and the light is right (to reduce glare), there is no way anyone driving by can see anything.
Google street view:
Here's a pic my wife took the other day slightly part way up the driveway, which shows it a bit better. Our bathroom is in the second floor area with the Palladian window. And the shower opens directly to the windows.
I've concluded that unless/until I'm convicted of indecent exposure I'll leave the blinds open and not worry about it.
Funny related story - my nephew and his wife visited us last winter. Since they have three small children we gave them our bedroom because there was room to have the kids in cots/crib all in the same room. First night the wife said to our nephew "what about the windows?" to which he replied "they're one way glass". When she found out they weren't, words were exchanged....
