In 1988, as a teenager, I moved across the Atlantic from England, to a house on Ridge Road where I lived for 5 years. 23 years later, I returned to the same street. My husband and I purchased a 1930’s Dutch Colonial that was in need of love and attention. We had only seen the outside and a FaceTime tour before taking the leap to put in an offer. With a leaking roof, peeling paint, and some questionable plumbing, we set about making this our home as we returned to the Ridge.
