A Young Old House

For some odd reason there were some open houses today, rather than Sunday, so we stopped by one of them. The house is 101 years old and officially part of a historic district. And I find it hard to believe - well, except for the unfinished part of the basement, which smells like old house. The rest? Outside looks post-WWII; inside looks less than 10 years old. If it weren't for the radiators you'd never know from the inside how old the house was. And with three staircases from main floor to second, two more to the basement and an infinite number of connected rooms, we got lost in there a few times. Even the driveway was twists and turns and wrapped around the two garages. Very nifty overall. We liked. Sheesh, I wish we could afford one of these.
