Interesting to see this little house with its high stone fence. What is the historical reason for including the casita with a dwelling? Storage?

Here's my dream house in Charlotte, VT:

Look at those built-ins!! This is for the Shaker wannabe. Just gorgeous.

That is beautiful, catherine! But way more house than I want at this point in my life. I could probably live in that out-building, though. LOL. Love the surrounding land.

The New Mexico house just doesn't do it for me, all that naked dirt. It just looks like a barren wasteland or something.
I love the VT house Catherine, the built-ins are fabulous and that workshop is the stuff dreams are made of (at least my dreams!)
Love the Vt house for uniqueness especially the warm wooden floors, the cozy kitchen and the window seat. So many hiding places for everything. Wonder about the history of who lived there, the size of the family, etc? It has a story to tell.

The New Mexico yard is fairly typical of a lot of middle-class houses it seems— they just don’t bother.
Here is a photo of a nicely done little condo front garden next-door to the one where I stayed. All the spring mounds were in bloom and I am sure it never looks this good at any time in the year.
