Love of Astro + failing eyesight = imaging
Imaging requires good, reliable equipment + consistent setup which indicates permanent mounting
Permanent mounting is best housed in an observatory
Observatory allows on-site control of camera, telescope, etc. etc. via a dedicated laptop
Laptop + electronic link to Home computer (say via TeamViewer) = comfort
Comfort increases the chances of obtaining decent results
Decent results reinforce love of Astro.

If you can afford it, definitely go the imaging route via an observatory.
