Here's the beloved house I grew up in. The "new" owners took off the shutters, and added more modern big wide open plate glass windows all over. It was more traditional looking with the shutters and nice wooden framed windows. The house sits on 3 acres of wooded land. Big back yard surrounded by a clothesline that mom used all the time. Neighbors close by but not too close....and so much fun to offer in the woods.
It's on a road that dead ends...the first bit of the road is paved, and then for years the portion that led to my house was dirt. Now it's tarred. Every few years they come along and re-tar it. One and a half lanes, through the overhanging forest, down about a mile. It's beautiful. It was paradise to raise kids in.
