Thyme to Sell

Thyme For Bed Inn has hosted visitors from all over the United States since it opened in 1999. With its four bedrooms and four a half baths, the Monolithic Dome has plenty of room for overnight guests as well as the owners Don and Sherryl Bainbridge and their daughter Somer. But with Somer heading off to college this fall, the Bainbridges are ready to travel the United States and then downsize to a smaller dome home.

So they have put the bed and breakfast on the market for $387,000. The property has generated plenty of interest, but no buyers just yet. But a glowing profile in Shore Magazine may soon change that.
