A typical "Summerville cottage". Lots of local residents call these home.

This challenge should be interesting. Good idea, Deb.
What a wonderful cottage, with that roof and big windows.

[sjasis]

those are cute little cottages, Deb ... how many bedrooms are in a typical cottage?

[DebinSC]

Just one. "Cozy."

In a nearby community there used to be a 'little house' similar in size to the one in your pic, Deb. It was always a conversation piece until the owners had an addition added thus causing it to lose its uniqueness. Of course I could understand full well why they did.

great idea for a weekly challenge, Deb!

This is a shot of my childhood home, where my Dad still lives.
The actual structure is well over 100 years old:

Nice to still have that connection, Sj. We sold the old homestead after my parents passed. I still go by occasionally and take a look, though. :)

[Bebop]

So nice to have those roots, SJ. I love the pink with the green.

[sjasis]

actually the house is 'barn red' but your comment made me realized how pink it looks in this picture.

[GTO]

nice memories to keep.....I always drive by our homestead whenever I'm in town too!
