Generally the very best issues are proper beneath your nostril. That was the case for Liz Hottel and her husband, Ryan Hadley, who, when looking for a bigger dwelling for his or her household of three (4, counting the canine), wound up shopping for the home Liz’s mom, Catherine, had lived in for the previous 25 years. The Cape Cod–fashion dwelling in Silver Spring, Maryland, had every thing the couple have been in search of: one thing within the D.C. space with nice colleges for his or her son, proximity to the metro, walkability, and, as a bonus, the potential to renovate to incorporate an ADU for Catherine.
