a house in the heights


Last weekend we spent two days looking at over 40 houses in the east Cleveland suburbs. A few days later we bought one! Here's some photos of our home-to-be:


Fireplace, mantle, and built-ins.


Dining room with window seat and more leaded-glass cabinets.


Kitchen.


Breakfast nook off of the kitchen.


At the top of the stairs looking into 1 of 3 bedrooms.


Upstairs bathroom.


Attic family room.


Basement and corner workshop.


Backyard and garage from an upstairs window.


Mailbox?


View from the front...


...and the back.

All in all, considering a 1925 birthday, things appear to be in pretty good shape. Some window coverings, light fixtures, and a whole lot of wallpaper will have to go... but what's a home without a project?
