I like these old stone homes like this 1900 gem in De Pere, Wisconsin. It's been renovated and updated, still has original features, but also has some strange ones, too, and it already has an active offer. 4bds, 2.5ba, $574,900.
Tumblr media
So, let's see what we have here. I love dissecting and trying to piece reno'd homes together. It seems clear that the entrance hall was expanded, walls were removed, and the whole staircase was redone.
Tumblr media
It looks like the walls also got new wallboard, molding, and paint; the ceilings got can lights; I'm not sure about the floors, and the fireplace is definitely new.
Tumblr media
Walls have come down- that looks like a support beam on the ceiling. They made an open plan between the dining/living room and you can see where the wall was by the dividing piece in the floor on the right.
Tumblr media
This is a side or rear entrance that was reconfigured and leads into the kitchen.
Tumblr media
Kinda like the stair effects. This may have been an outside entrance b/c of the original exterior stone.
Tumblr media
There is a powder room down here, too.
Tumblr media
Check it out. This is an addition, b/c that's the original exterior wall.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The large new kitchen addition. Not terribly fond of the pickled wood finish they chose for the cabinetry.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The primary bedroom could've been the original kitchen b/c bedrooms don't usually have an outside door to the porch.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There's a newly constructed en-suite with a huge walk-in shower.
Tumblr media
New screened-in deck on the back.
Tumblr media
The upstairs landing is very large. They put some similar stone (or faux stone) on the perfect wall to try to make it look old.
Tumblr media
Barn doors open to reveal a home office. I don't know what this was, but there are no windows.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Of these bedrooms, this larger one must've been the original primary.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The bath features a vintage reproduction tub and a modern stone shower.
Tumblr media
The tub is just a tiny slipper tub.
Tumblr media
Nice big mud room in the back.
Tumblr media
I love this barn.
Tumblr media
It would make a nice guest house or studio.
Tumblr media
Here, you can see the new addition. The property measures 2.68 acres.

Old Stone House, Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania
Over the weekend, we passed the Old Stone House in Slippery Rock several times that we made plans to stop by the house on our way back to Ohio.  The home, a two-story, six-bay structure made of sandstone was built by John Brown in 1822 and is today, a museum of rural life. Perfectly situated at the crossroads of the Pittsburgh-Franklin and Butler Mercer Pikes, it was the perfect location as a…

I thought for sure this was a European property, but it’s in Myerstown, Pennsylvania and only $519K for a huge, ancient historic home- it was built in 1720!
Tumblr media
How can they ask only $519K for this big refurbished home????
Tumblr media
B/c Pennsylvania has very reasonable prices for homes. LOOK at this. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Can you believe this kitchen? The old cooking hearth is still here. Plus, they put in beautiful cabinetry. And, look at the ceiling beams. 
Tumblr media
Is this the coolest? 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then check out this Americana style dining room. Whoever restored this home did a great job. This is like a ballroom. Notice the powder room hidden in the closet.
Tumblr media
And, it leads to a hidden laundry room.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This room with bath was used as an office. (I guess they went modern in the bath, b/c there wasn’t anything to duplicate back then, not even claw foot tubs or indoor plumbing.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Amazing. Look at the patina on the door and the charring in the fireplace. 
Tumblr media
Looks like original architecture.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here’s a gorgeous bedroom. they left all the odd doorways and cubbies.
Tumblr media
Another bath.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Beautiful large bright bedroom. I love that they left all the quirkiness- the tiny storage closets, and mazelike structure- look at the little sink.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here’s the workshop that they used to renovate the house.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A gorgeous property.
