The detached four-car garage wasn’t what attracted Rick and Pavy Bacon to the Silver Spring home they purchased 10 years ago. In fact, they didn’t even own a car at the time. “We had a scooter,” Pavy says. What sold them was the charming bungalow style architecture of the home, a neighborhood that was near public transportation and not far from the District, and good schools for the children they hoped to have.
