After this whole Epic thing breaks for me, I want to spend my decline in a gorgeous urban townhouse. Like the one above that I swiped from The Inimitable Phillips. Or, to me, the mother of all great townhouses....the Delancey Street address in Philadelphia used as Winthorp's home in the hilarious movie Trading Places...
...which was subsequently given a total redo as recorded in Architectural Digest. Of course the butler has to be a part of the fantasy. Any Jeeves will do. Once I move in and get settled, you are all welcome to pop by for a snifter of something or other...

There was a great townhouse on 35th and N street or thereabouts when I was an undergrad at Georgetown. I would walk past that place at night when the interior was illuminated and just ... experience a yearning.
It didn't help when, later, the location was used in a Ralph Lauren commercial.
I'll bet that was NICE! There is just something about a ritzy townhouse...

If you get the Phila townhouse...does Coleman the manservant come with the package?
MLS, Absolutely! Someone has to drive me home at night from Whitemarsh Valley Inn!

And make crepes for me!
