Wow, what a great empty room. I feel like I want to go up the stairs or through the open door... also makes me think I need to paint. lol #1275518

Ron McEwan June 05, 2010

If I had the money I would love to restore what was once a beautiful estate. Well done Linda it even has pocket doors. #8666734

Carolyn M. Fletcher June 05, 2010

It doesn't look like it needs much restoring. Paint, maybe, but it's so great like this I'd leave it alone. Right into my faves, Linda~ #8666741

Randy A. Myers June 06, 2010

Nicely done. Have you seen this exact same house in Monroe, GA? I think it's an office of some kind. It's unusual to see the exact same house from that era duplicated elsewhere. If someone doesn't fix this one up before long, the whole rear section will be lost. Good job. #8668884

Linda- I loved the first one and the way you let us look in the open door and was I thrilled to see that you have taken us inside to see more of the beauty that still remains. Love the composition, the staircase and the doorways are layed out so beautifully. I espeically love the color and the look of the finish. That is so neat. Gorgeous.
Have a wonderful day my friend, take care. #8687365
