Yes the House is 50 Years Old



My son and his wife bought this 1950's house. It was in pretty sad shape and hadn't had any tender loving care in years. BUT LOOK AT IT NOW! It's amazing what a little bit of paint can do to bring a house back to life. Also they refinished the floors themselves. I thought they could never be brought back to life. After spending a fraction of what it would have cost to have somebody do they work they stripped, sanded, and applied a protective coating. They are beautiful and have all the character old oak floors should have. Way to go kids! Ya done good!
