Front View. Note how high the chimney sticks up past the roof.
|
We spent weeks digging these yuccas out.
|
Fireplace with fake brick surround.
|
This
used to be a screen porch that was closed up during the 60's. |
|
Side window shoved all the way to the corner
|
I have no idea why they bumped the drywall out like
that. |
|

|
The
bathroom used to have two windows before the family room was added on. |
Front porch showing classic craftsman bungalow lines.
|
|
Kitchen showing pantry and what used to be the back door
before the back popout was added. |
1970's kitchen remodel |
The beam was added in the '70s when the screen porch was removed.
|
It
appears the basement was dug later. Note the different posts. |
This was the first time I saw rib lath and plaster used on an
exterior. There was no waterproofing behind it, and it did not hold
up well, especially behind the concrete brick.
|
Two of the three palms that had to be removed. I
hate these things- tried to sell them, but no one wanted them. |
|
Old electric panel that was upgraded in the '70's. |
Water heater shed. Notice the vent on top... |
|
|
Rear view showing the flat-roofed family addition on the left.
|
Plumbing underneath was a mixture of galvanized, CPVC
plastic, copper tubing, and black pipe (for water service!). |
| I had a house inspector look it over before we bought
it. His report is 38 pages long, and he took a ton of photos.
He's using the photos for training purposes now! |
