It's certainly a handsome room. I'd like to hear "My Snowy-breasted Pearl" on that Victrola. Staying tuned for winter developments.

Another old home project started, going to reinstate Gothichomes front porch. Pictures to follow.

I had no idea there was originally a front porch! Let's see those pictures!

Re: Gothichome, the restoration of.
Ok, a bit of a Waite but here is the porch so far.
I had a pro do the basic structure, I will be building most of the fancy stuff myself over time. Paint will have to waite, all but the roof is treated so will need to dry out before paint. Also waiting on the roof, had to go with a standing seam steel roof because I can no longer get the fancy shingles we have on the houseRe: Gothichome, the restoration of.
That must change the feeling inside the entrance and front room. It looks so correct. Do you have old photos for reference, or was there a porch present you acquired Gothichome?
