Sometime between the winter and spring
months of 2013, I was cruising Craigslist for a Dollhouse. I know kind of crazy
since I had just started on my first house but I was already searching for the
next project. I found a handmade Georgian style house. It was a fixer upper. I
drove 40 minutes to meet this woman (she was very nice). Once I got there and saw how big the house
was, I thought, “Oh no.” I drive a 4
door sedan. This house was 48’W x 16’D x 28’H, huge!! Now remember I was still
living in my Condo (small space). Somehow this woman and I got this house in the back
seat of my car and it took some effort. How I got that house out my car and up
the flight of stairs to my Condo is a mystery.
Now I am face to face with this monstrosity in my Condo (buyer's remorse). Immediately called my best friend and told
her about my latest adventure in impulse shopping. Sad thing is I no longer wanted the house. She
suggested I donate the house for a Charity Auction at her son’s school. What a great idea!! So I did. Below are some
pictures of the house. And, yes it sold.
As you can see, I had to repair windows and replace the door. They were missing.
The interior was filled with old ugly wall paper. Tearing it off was just too tedious.
Had to restruct the interior walls in the foyer/entrance way.
The interior completed.
