Elizabeth Prenger

Where I live: We live in Fayetteville in the Rolling Hills neighborhood, which is close to Gulley Park. We bought our house one year ago, and we are totally in love with it. We like that it's close to Gulley Park. We spend a lot of time up there, especially in the summer when they have the summer concert series. We walked into this house for the first time and totally fell in love with it. It's an older house -- it was built in the '70s -- but the bathrooms have been updated. Everything was in great shape.

Occupation: Director of outreach at First Tee of Northwest Arkansas. I am responsible for the relationships we have with various community partners. We have about 860 kids in our program this year alone. We do a lot of outreach with the local elementary schools and junior highs. We do a lot of fundraising, so that's one of my responsibilities as well.

My favorite space: Our dining room and living area.

Why? We do a lot of entertaining. We love having people over for drinks and to grill out. It's a great place to watch some football on the TV, gather around the dining table or hang out on our sectional. It's got a wonderful stone fireplace. It's very cozy and casual, very eclectic.

If I could do one thing to improve this space I would: Have a bigger dining table.
