Our former life - Derwood

Picture of front of town home.

Prior to putting our townhouse on the market, we did some work on improving it. In some ways, after fixing and decorating, it was hard to imagine leaving it. But, we could definitely imagine leaving the commute behind. Here are some photos of our former home, highlighting some of Margreta's quilts that were scattered through out the house.

Our townhouse had three bedrooms upstairs.

Our master bedroom with walk-in closet and bath. The bath had a separate shower stall.

We used one of the other bedrooms for Jeffrey's study.

This room had a quilt on the couch. The quilt was made by Margreta's mom and her friends.

The other room upstairs was used as Margreta's study.

The home had wide hallways and stairways, a good place for displaying quilts.

The main floor had a dining room, kitchen and formal living room.

Plenty of wall space to decorate in the dining room and over the railing for the cut out floor.

The formal living room also had space for quilts, including a wall mounting quilt display rack.

The kitchen had lots of counter space and table space for eating.

And, once again, some wall space in the hallways for quilts.

Downstairs was the family/living room, a separate bedroom and shower and storage space.

The home served us well for 8 years.
