Are the leaves alternate? If so it cannot be boxwood.

Probably Euonymus japonicus 'Microphyllus'.

A closer view would make it easier to tell.

Euonymous with Buxus behind and to the right.

Here is a link to a page of px on Google of various euonymus shrubs:

Pieris can look quite similar; it gets distinctive bunches of small white flowers in spring.

I'm betting there is some of that on your new property as well.

Thank you all! I'll take a look at those links.
