The Surroundings

Again, remember, these are thumbnails, so click for a better view.

The Yard

The yard is about 300 feet deep and 150 feet wide, for a total of ~ and acre. (For those of you who are better at remembering the size of an acre, don't bother to calculate: it isn't a right regular rectangle.) 

It backs onto the waters of Prospect Harbor, which, about .5 mile down the bay turns into open water--the Atlantic.

The Neighborhood

There are a lot of old Victorian houses about. Some of them in better shape than others.
