Houses change! 1310 W. Arch. Searcy AR New look. Built in 1925. Historic.

You can see the love and attention in each photo. I am glad they left the wrought iron on the porch; its character is hard to replace.

Thanks for sharing, make it a great Saturday and enjoy your Holiday

weekend!

Hello Barbara - it's interesting to me seeing how buildings change.  Thanks for sharing another slice of Searcy Arkansas history.  The bicyclists in the b/w photo adds an interesting perspective too.  

Barbara, what a beautiful transformation in this 1925 house.  Thx for sharing.

I like the first photo best too.  I'm not fond of the color painted on it in the last photo.  As an aside, the house I grew up in was a Queen Anne style home built in 1905.  When I lived there, the house was painted white with forest green trim.  Many years later, a new owner came in and painted it Redwood Red.  It was ghastly.  Finally, a few months ago, I drove by it again, and found an even newer owner had repainted it a pretty shade of blue.  I can live with that.

CONGRATULATIONS Barbara, on having this blog FEATURED in the Old Farts Clubgroup!  

Barbara S. Duncan  loved your post and how interesting, when I lived in Waterbury CT a hundred years ago, I bought an Old Colonial and wanted to make sure that I did not mess with the old stuff... just scrapped off 13 coats of paint on the inside, got rid of six coats of wall paper and the list goes on and on.... never got to the outside sold it as a fixed for more than what I paid for :)Endre
