This serene Avenel Estate includes a conservatory and evokes a sense of timeless sophistication through its symmetrical design, ivy-covered walls, and classic slate roof. Photography by Oleks Yaroshynski.

After Nancy Evans, who has lived and worked at the Avenel Equestrian Center barns for 46 years, received an eviction notice from WSSC Water, a petition was begun to save the center.

Avenel resident Jean Bae, owner of Salon Jean and Day Spa, launched new lines of clean skincare and anti-aging cosmetics under the brand JEANBAE.  “It felt necessary for me to make an impact in the beauty industry by creating a brand that offers more natural products for all ages and ethnicities. JEANBAE products enhance our consumers' natural beauty while contributing to a mission that gives back and improves the lives of animals with every purchase,” she says. Congratulations Jean! 

Jean held a spectacular party to launch her brand JEANBAE. Dozens of Salon Jean clients as well as friends, family, and local influencers were delighted upon arrival to find professional makeup artists available to apply the new product lines while educating the dos and don’ts of each product.
