Wordless Wednesday: Victorian Home, Peekskill, NY
That is a classic.
It's amazing how the true Victorian, 100 years old plus offers the perfect slate for a remodel that will just knock your socks off.
Those high ceilings (keep the tin seilings) came BACK in style in the 1990s except that they were called "volume ceilings". However, the room sizes diminished to keep prices down.
Those huge kitchens are everyone's dream but hard to find in homes constructed after 1980. Builders answered consumer demand for large kitchen with "bump-outs" and charged accordingly for the upgrade.
Those bay windows that come naturally in the true Victorian are an expensive upgrade in new construction.
Don't forget the exterior and interior TRIM. Beautiful trims are a part of the true Victorian.
The Victorian is a truly beautiful home.
We have some beauties in Virginia and Maryland too.
