My husband Ken and I bought the Russell Robinson House in Sept 2010. We would love to know the original street address for this home before Ashworth Drive was built in the late 1990's. When this home was first built in 1954 the driveway entered off Garrett Rd and meandered all the way back to the original home that was situated on approximately 14 acres. In 1997 the previous owners, Mr. and Mrs. Carter willed this MCM to their grandson, Ricky Carver and his wife Tracy. The Carvers subsequently sold off all but 1.24 acres to a developer and this developer created Ashworth Estates and Skipwith Court. At that time Ashworth Drive was developed for the neighborhood consisting of 20 homes including the few on Skipwith Court off Ashworth.
If you know the original address of this home please email me. Thank you very much.sr

Just a correction to Stephanie Rowe's comment. Skipwith Court is a part of Ashworth Estates!
