Along the Ridge

I have already shown you this enormous new home a couple of days ago. I did want to explain that along this ridge...or crest, large homes are not a new thing.
Just in the next block sits this beauty, built over 100 yrs ago, and seems to be in fine condition.

In 1978 this home received a Historical Landmark plaque

I have been studying the history of this area and I find it quite interesting.....to be continued.

  1. It looks almost like the White House, the second photo. There are some interesting mansions there.

  2. A good mix of old and new Janey, makes for a more interesting neighbourhood don't you think.

  3. wouldn't it be odd to live in a historical home with a plaque on the gate? people peering in, wondering who lives there now. eek!

  4. Dearest Janey,
    Yeah, indeed, great to look at but not for living there... not much privacy I guess!
    Hugs,
