This Old House

When I read this article in the Post-Bulletin I was tickled pink.  Of course, I have talked here about my fondness toward old houses, but old, well-preserved houses, are the next rung on the ladder.

The author of the article, Cindy Scott explains an in depth history of the property, built in 1856 by Hiram K. Ireland, the first of many other houses around that time by Mr. Ireland.  Since then the house has passed through many hands, all of whom have left their mark,  and pleasantly, updated and maintained the structure.   See, there are happily ever afters!  Check out the article on Postbulletin.com for the whole article and to see the house now!
