CONTINUED FROM PAGE B:1 the responses have been won- derful." She personifies a saying on T-Shirts advertising the She- pley Lumber Co. of Hyannis: "Attitude is everything'- and a positive attitude, says Aspden. iswhat got her through despite a "stomach ache" the day they moved the house. For example, she said that whileridingwithHayden shesaw unavoidable damage beingdone to the house'sexterior from tree branches. "If you hadn't been there."shesays,"you would have wondered where the damage came from and why." Patience and upbeat willing- ness to gamble on business instinct has paid off for Asp- den. When the mother of three was a hairdresser working for somebody else, she harbored a dream of some day owning her ownsalon.Soshe quietlylooked around. Opportunity knocked - and Aspden answered - when she found her current Colonial 4-bedroom. 2-full and two half- bath,2,764squarefoot residence in a village business zone that would allowher to have a home occupation - the salon. "Then I figured the kids could come home from school and walk thoughthe salonto sayheUo and check in while I worked." She sold her house for funds , bought the place and shortly thereafter used IRA savings and equity in the house to buy six surrounding acres wrapped in a "legal mess" that included a parcel leased to the postal ser- vice. More hoops. More jumps. Then, in time, success. "I eventually sold off most of the sixacres but kept oneparcel next to the salon for a future parking lot." But when she learned of the Chatham House, shewent toTownHalltoexplore the zoning. "I was told that I could have another house on the same property. That's rare. The zoning really is what made it allpossible.At the time,it was an investment and a chance to recycle a perfectly good house that I could rent." The move was prescient. Shortly afterwards, her son in law suffered a broken neck, a precursor of difficult financial timesahead.Now,Aspden says, her daughter andfamilywillsell their more expensivehome and move into the cottage. The salon, she says, is the kindof placewhere someclients "come a half-hour before their appointment and stay a half- hour afterward" to enjoy the camaraderie and a cup of coffee. "Sometimes there's food, too." It'sanetwork place, she says. "Look," she said, walkingto a counter to retrieve an album of business cards. "These are people I've dealt with and been satisfied ," which, she says, is "always"in her case. "If a client happens to mention they need a certain service, we go through the book," she said, to find a suitable provider or vendor. Aspden says she can't esti- mate the number of hours she spent chasing permits, getting advice, "just thinking," acquir- ing, moving and finishing the cottage. But she'll recite costs for this or that permitor service that, in the end, she says, will figure out "to about $70,000 for athree-bedroom,one-bath cot- tage in very good condition." Ever the optimistandrecycler, Aspdensaysshe now feels quali- fied "to guide anybody though the details of moving a house." In that vein, she advocates one central,officiallisting,perhapsby the county,ofallhousesslatedfor demolitionon the Cape but first being offered free to takers. She believes there is oppor- tunity for housing authorities and municipalitiesowningland to take advantage of these offerings to create affordable housing, or private parties who can, evenunder more stringent zoning,usethemasadditionsto existinghousing. Acentrallistingseemsagood idea from a woman who knows - but will officialdom pounce?
