While much work has been done on the interior of the house as well as needed mechanical upgrades, the house needs a facelift from the road as well as a well-deserved foundation / structural upgrade. This FB page is dedicated to documenting the process for us personally, as well as for those who may have an interest in the renovation (specifically our neighbors!). History buffs may also like the information provided. The concept is to keep as much of the exterior facade which lured us into buying this money pit. That and location, which is hard to beat (at least in our opinion). We're doing the same in the interior wherever it makes sense, though we have replaced walls with drywall (shame!). Original woodwork is all kept, though stripped and re-stained. The house now has heat and air conditioning in both floors ( heat was a first floor only convenience when we bought it and air conditioning didn't exist). A wholly new high efficiency furnace and water heater add comfort and a pressure tank 1/5th the size of the original keeps water running thought the house. Filtered water, Wi-Fi, and two gorgeously remodeled full baths come close to finishing the interior, though a new kitchen for the cook is in order (me). Have fun watching as we try to return the house to a former glory - or at least one we can be proud to call our own as we pull into the driveway (which is new, too).
