Termite Hill Section vs Spring Garden Section

Every town has their sections and a name attached to it.  I was once told by a neighbor that there was one particular area of the Spring Garden section that was better known as Termite Hill.  I'll leave that up to the town historian.


This little gem is probably one of the older if not oldest in this section of Spring Garden, aka, Termite Hill.  Notice the roof and the wooden shingles.

The 5 houses above have the style of a Craftman's Cottage.  Small in size but BIG in when it comes to architectual design.  The last house has had lots of work done to it over the past few years.
Nice carport especially on a rainy day.


Another great house with character.  The red roof works well with the green.


Virtually maintenance-free exterior and another nice porch.


The color combination is perfect and this house looks to be on a lot and a half.
I like this house for a couple of reasons.  One, is the house is nicely shaded during the summer and because the front is facing away from the street.


Neat clean lines and the color compliments the natural landscape.


I never gave much thought to this house but I saw a potential.  Now that it has been recently painted and landscaped, the front porch really pops out.

I guess it's obvious that I like old houses.  The garden beds along the front walk are packed with zinnias every year.  Nice big trees too.
Very inviting front entrance and very nice windows.


I watched this house transform from a stale blue to the colors you see now.  I heard that there is an elevator in this house.....interesting.

Nice slate roof and beautiful brick sitting on one of the larger lots.  This place is like a mini castle.


This house too is on a nice size lot. 


To me this is a great combination of colors.  Another nice big old oak.


Thanks again for stopping by.


Don't forget to change you clocks this weekend, Daylight Savings begins!!
