Dear Future Owner, we first laid eyes on the house in 2001. It was tired, worn down by time, and in desperate need of care-but we fell in love instantly. The crooked hallways, the worn stair treads, and the built-ins whispered of generations past. This was no ordinary house; it was a piece of living history, and we knew it. Over the years, we began bringing it back to life. We started with the basics-new bathroom fixtures, updated plumbing, paint, sanding, and repairs throughout. We raised our family within these old walls, filling them with laughter, warmth, and mittens drying on the old steam radiators in winter-just like at my grandmother's house. In 2016, we moved out to begin a larger renovation. We upgraded the power to 400 amps, replaced sub flooring with new ergonomic flooring, installed kitchen cabinets and windows, added lighting, and replaced exterior doors. Sheetrock was added where needed, and all hardwood floors were sanded, stained, and sealed. We removed large trees from the property, relined the chimneys, and even adapted the dining room stove pipe for a pellet stove. We drilled a new well in 2021, replaced the pump and lines, and brought in fresh electrical work throughout the home-there's no knob-and-tube wiring left. An electric heater insert was added in the living room (removable), and new outlets were installed as well.
