Wow I really enjoyed this, I really related to this here recently:

“Yes, it’s an old house. In fact, it’s over 100 years old (it’s been renovated since then, but still). I usually tend to get creeped out over old places, however in this case, I think the age is part of its charm. I love the high ceilings, the arched door frame in the hallway, the stained glass windows above the front door. I love the old-fashioned light switches and the ornate door knobs. I despise modern interior design. There’s something so cold and lifeless about the lack of colour and the “minimalism.” When I look at the details of my grandparents’ house, no matter how old it is, I’m reminded of how lacking in personality modern houses are.”

The details here make me think a little bit about my wife’s grandma’s house: so old and so much personality and unique detail!! Then we have these subdivisions going up with 5 versions of the same house. Anyway this was a great read!!

My grandparents moved house about 20 years ago and I still think about their old house. Take loads of pictures!
