The View From Here

When we began searching for our New England home, we came across a blog that not only gave us hope for our search, but also helped us to learn that we are not alone in our passions. The View From Here is a blog devoted to a couple's journey of restoring an antique home. It is warm, sincere and a light in the tunnel if you love homes that need love and respect, and are interested in the integrity of antique architecture and craftsmanship. A recent post is devoted to the house we are featuring below (images from their blog)--it is a beauty and in the unfortunate position that once grand homes are now stuck in; abandoned and abused in the midst of Tyvec and vinyl sided developments that continue to sprawl across our once pristine rural areas.
