This is the front walkway. |
This is the right side of the house next to the master bedroom. |
This is a view from the next door neighbors of the right front side showing the upper balcony door. There used to be an outside staircase and we intend to replace it. |
This is a view of the Widow's Peak and the left side iron work. |
This is a photo of the left side door. Beautiful woodwork indeed! |
These are the double front doors. |
This is a shot of the left side of the house. |
This is in the very front lawn under massive oak trees. |
This is a distance shot, showing the massive trees, the entire house and front grounds and the garage which is a masterpiece in itself. |
This is a gazebo in the backyard. |
This is a photo of the back door and back patio. |
This isn't the most beautiful shot, but it shows the rose beds and part of the garage. |
I think these photos shows most of the outside of the house and grounds. I will next time, post photos of the interior of the house. And we are in the middle of remodeling the entire upstairs into three bedrooms. There are approximately 23,000 bricks that were used in the making of the house and flower beds, and back patio.
ENJOY!

Good morning dearest friend,
WOW...you just gave me an insight to that raindrop photo that I have never thought of but can now SEE in my mind's eye as you beautifully describe the action of the drops turning into crowns! I AM STUNNED to think of how that coincides with my inspiration to speak of CROWNS in this piece!!! But God does turn tears into gems and embeds them into crowns of glory, doesn't He? what a fascinating concept my dearest! I wish you a quiet and creative week; off to school I go this morning to try to do my job, inspire and keep sane!!! It is quite a busy year so far.
MUCH LOVE AND THANKS for your insight...so touching!!! Anita

I'm on pins and needles waiting for the interior photos! So beautiful. Congrats. Love your profile pic. The doll you made in Joanna's class is gorgeous.
Love your awesome home, what a beauty! Will return for more visits! Hugs Marilou
Now that is one lovely house with BEAUTIFUL character, which is so rare to find in a home these days.

And oh, wow. Just two hours from the Giant Sequoias? I've always wanted to see those in person. I would imagine hugging those trees is a pretty impossible task, huh? :p
My uncle has lived in California since after high school, and my aunt and her family lived there a few years until recently. My sister fell in love with San Diego. So much so that she and her family visited twice.

What a beautiful home! I immediately thought of it as a setting for an interesting novel- so inspiring! And you've got a wonderful name for it too! I am sure you and your family are making wonderful memories here! take care! Patsy from

Seriously? You live here? This is every interior designers dream.....ugh, the envy......I love it. Don't be alarmed if I show up at your door one day- suitcases in hand!
I love your home and hope to see more pics. It is a Victorian lovers dream home. I have a 130 year old brick Victorian farmhouse, not large like yours but it is very quaint and feels like home. I love the romance of Victorian homes. You really have a beautiful place there.
Warmly,
Pat
Wow! Your home is gorgeous! I see some mention that you live in CA? I used to live in Sacrameto, for almost 20 years. I miss it a lot. Also, your dolls are fabulous! You're very talented. So very nice to meet you!
Hugs, Cindy
