Are you getting tired of looking at houses yet? This will be the last one for a while. Lots of pictures here.
This house is my ultimate dream house. Like I said in the previous post, it was for sale a couple years ago. Let’s tour the outside.
The home was built by Harold Kier in 1912, as a wedding present for his new bride. They raised a family here and made it their residence until 1968.
Pictured below is the rear balcony, it also has one on the side
The house sits on about 2 acres
I don’t think I even have to say anything. It just doesn’t get much better than this
carriage house
Ready to go inside? I thought so. Here is the foyer
I love this kitchen. it’s not very big but that’s ok
back staircase
side porch, there is also a screened porch in back
library
formal living
Not crazy about the decor….
the windows!
formal dining
casual dining
Need to take a break while we go up the stairs?
landing
The house has 5 bedrooms
The master has a fireplace and access to the balcony
I love these original bathroom tiles and sink
media room
basement
Andy liked this part
I sure hope the people that bought it are taking good care of it for me!

I LOVE this house. I remember this house from when you posted about it a few years ago. that is how long I have loved your blog!
and I so know what you mean when you say all the things about how older homes make you feel. I am the same way. I love the old doors and windows and hardware. they just don’t make it like they used to!

Very nice! Wow, love all the windows! Being from a different part of the country, I am wondering what something like this costs?

Looking through these wonderful photos, all I can think about is the history that has taken place in that home. The children that must have loved growing up in such a wonderful place. Think about the birthday parties and the Chrismases and family cookouts! I love it. What a dream house. I can see why you have fallen for it.

Awesome house, love the story behind it. And I adore all of the buildt ins !! The bathroom with the tub is to die for.

Are you kidding me? Keep posting! I love this style and I’m creating my own digial “this is what I want my home to look like” folder. AND, it does include some of yours. I’ve got a 1989 typical “Texas house” and we’re starting to remodel soon. I’m going to try to push this style, while sill trying to make it work.

WOW! That house is beautiful especially the outside. Don’t like the decor either but boy what you could do with it.
