I should never have found this website. I have this love-hate relationship with older homes. We live in one and I love it and hate it. Love the older architecture and character. Hate the way it never feels done or clean. But I absolutely love to look at pictures of older homes. One of my major weaknesses.
Anyway, this site is historic homes on major, mega overload: Historic Properties
You have been warned!





I love old homes, too. However, living in one built in the 1960s takes enough work.
Where my daughter lives in New England, it is not uncommon to have a house for sale built in the 1700s. They almost bought a farmhouse that she fell in love with built during that time but her father-in-law talked them out of it.
Her hubby is not what one would call “handy” with a hammer and saw. He has a PhD in math.
Sallie, I’m with you. You know that we lived in a 12 room Queen Anne for 17 years before building our present “no-outside maintanence” home. I’ll always love to look at them,
so this treasure has been added to my favorites. I never had a house with a candle-snuffer roofed tower, but I do enjoy the stained glass window in our “new” house.
