Whenever I think about my time at the Castle, it almost makes me cry, says owner Kimberly Kepnes, when asked about her experience living at Castle Angelo. It is such a peaceful place. Every room inside and each garden outside has its own its own special meaning for me, says Kimberly. Kimberly has been the owner of the iconic home since 2007 and she says she poured her heart and soul, and, admittedly, nearly all of her savings, into the renovation. I started by gutting the kitchen, Kimberly recalls, and within a few short months, the entire place was under construction, she said. Most rooms were completely demo d and there were more than 200 sheets of drywall carried down the sloping landscape into the home. Some contractors only made it to the house once, she laughed, recalling how most thought she was totally crazy. I was known for changing my mind a time or two inside and also in the landscape; planting 27 bushes one day, only to have them removed and replaced on the next, she giggles. There is just something about that place, says Kimberly while losing herself in some memory, I think survival and resiliency come through the walls there and they manifested themselves in a kind of becoming for me. I just HAD to get it right! Your best life begins with a home that inspires you. Live Historic! Live Old Ellicott City!
