If this house could talk, what secrets would it tell you about its history?
This house would talk about the wonderful builder who created it—a strong, pretty, timeless solid structure with high ceilings, separate owner and guest wings, a huge dry basement, attached oversized garage, etc. But mostly the house would tell the story of the current owners who have poured love and unparalleled care and taste into it, improving not only the systems, but the landscape as well.
