House hunting

I love virtual house hunting. I get a kick out of perusing realtor Web sites so I can look inside other people’s homes. You’d be surprised at the great decorating tips you can uncover … the inspiration you may find.

There are perils to such a voyeuristic hobby, however. Like the rare occasion you see the next house of your dreams … knowing full well it will never, ever in a million years be your house. That’s happened to me a couple of times. I get my fix visiting the online photo galleries and then … boom. The links no longer work, which means someone bought my next dream house.

I couldn’t help but appreciate THIS house and I wanted to share it with all of my fellow antique lovers. This home is for sale in Hartville. If you’re looking for a primitive-style dwelling in Northeast Ohio with lots of history under its belt, this may be the house for you.

Someone put a great deal of time, love and care into this house. I wonder why it’s for sale … it makes me a little sad for the current owners. Anyway, enjoy these photos. I did! Maybe you’ll even uncover a bit of inspiration to use in your own home. And hopefully the homeowners of this house won’t mind … after all, maybe one of you will fall in love!

P.S. This is just a sampling of the photos. To see all photos of this house, click on the link above.

The end!
