Back in 2006, the housing market in DC was inflated beyond many people's ability to purchase in the metro area, including me. So we decided to seek out nearby areas for retirement homes. We found this great little fishing and sailing town in Maryland about an hour and half away from DC within reach of the Chesapeake bay. It is far enough away from DC to want to stay overnight but not close that you would feel compelled to retun to DC the same day. These are pics of the house and yard on closing day.
Garage in the back of the house with the garden on the side. I'll show pictures in future posts of how the yard has morphed over the last few years.
Take note of the front. You might not notice it
from this pic but there's a gorgeous old fashioned
pink rose on the right. It was tiny then, but became
a monster. I cut it back this spring, but I'm not
sure if that was the thing to do. I'll post a pic later.
I'll post pics of the second house in a future post.
