I WANNA live there Wednesday # 115

Sometimes - in the midst of gutting out a home - it helps to see what others have done.

When I came across this house at This Old House - I was completely blown away - but sadly it didn't help at all because now I want to sell the one we bought and find one like this instead LOL

Wait till you see what vision can do !

It can create this


from this






























You can read all about it by following the link  This Old House - what an amazing journey 

I most definitely WANNA live there !

Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone 
Hugs,
Me

  2. What a great old house, Suzan. I love a French mansard. I think people either love them or hate them. One of my friends and my ex-sil absolutely HATE them. lol To each their own.
    They did a phenomenal job on this place.
    Guess what? When you are done with your project there it is going to be just as worthy of I Wanna Live There attention! xo Diana

  4. Beautiful bones but OMG those colours! and so many different ones, too - a bit over the top for my taste. Lovely house though.

  8. Gives us much hope, doesn't it? We can do it too (especially since my whole house can probably fit in that gorgeous dining-room)!

  9. Beautiful home, so happy to see they rescued it and brought it back to life. The same applies here and your house too. 2 crazy ladies with a vision 😀 but then reality slaps us and we have WTH moments. xo Patty

  10. What the heck is a french mansard? Inquiring minds want to know... LOL! Beautiful home! But with less color :-) I'd be painting up a storm!

  11. I'm finding I want every house except the one I have. This has sent me in a spiral downward. Don't know if it's all the snow and ice but I dream of starting over. If it were Spring, a for sale sign would be going up I think!

  12. This a a great example of restoration. It appears they tried to keep the original footprint of the house. The entry hall is my favorite with the glorious door. However, a sour note with the bath. Looks like a box store vanity.
