I think a few people would have really appreciated my grandparents house before they got to the age of needing to move into assisted living. Lawns were couch and my grandpa attended to them meticulously, they were not far short off a putting green. White picket fence out the front with the rose garden. Dunno how ethical it is these days, but sandstone reatainers for the garden beds. Out back, same deal, couch lawn. Green house for the orchids. The house itself was built late 40s (not by my grandpa, he bought it late 50s but had some tasteful modifications done) but had sandstone facade in places. Oh, and there was an epic fish pond out the back.
So the place sold in 2010 and my grandpa was devistated when he found out it was getting bulldozed for duplexes.
