Welcome to our humble abode.

A dark brown Dutch Colonial Revival home in the fall

Our home is a 1915 center hall Dutch Colonial Revival. Before we purchased it, this home had a revolving door of owners and needed a little TLC.

We believe that with a little imagination and a lot of work, we can turn this house into a beautiful home.

Join us as we tell stories about our triumphs and (more likely) complete failures in home ownership.
