    I do actually. What big houses. Here they would be turned into about 5 or 6 apartments

    While it's easy on the eyes, I bet it's not so easy on the wallet. Nice find. Hope all went well for you with Isaac.

    In CT, victorian style homes are all over (I live in Ansonia, lots here). Although, very few are adorned with the period detailing so lovingly restored. This west nd home is beautiful. Love those rotund porches!

    It's not a color I would have chosen for the house but it is striking.

    How lovely! Growing up I used to dream of living in an old Victorian home - preferably with a turret :).

    Your district must have the highest concentration of pretty - and large! - houses in the entire USA. This is wonderful, love the curved balconies.

    Beautiful building and it looks like a gorgeous neighborhood. It looks as if it may have been split into a duplex, yes? I see two number plaques on its front.

    I wouldn't have thought it, but the red is quite attractive.

    A grand old lady in a saucy red dress. Perfection!

    The color looks good on this building and bakes the one next door look dull. Has it been divided up into two apartments? The two entrances made me wonder.

    Looks rather like two houses made from one. Either way, it's very nice although I'd guess it cost a pretty red penny!
