I have almost house envy. Love that it wasn't gutted and you have so much of the original woodwork and flooring. Oh and the windows! I have what's called a Folk Victorian that was butchered in so many ways. I've bring back what I can as time and money permits.
I love Queen Anne homes! They are classic, traditional and have lasted through time. It just shows you how well craftsmanship was then compared to now, the homes they build today are falling apart after 10 years.
What a beautiful home! I love all the old woodwork in the house and the large rooms with high ceilings. I hope you can keep the original features such as its tile floor. The enclosed porch is beautiful and will be very nice to be inside away from bugs. They don't build homes like this anymore what a beautiful house it will be for you.
Gorgeous house! I am not a fan of open floor plans so it's refreshing to see doors which open up to separate rooms. My vote is for opening up the wrap around porch. You are very fortunate that the beveled glass and art glass windows are all still intact. The vintage ice box, once cleaned, may be worth a lot of money to a collector if you end up selling it. The outside space is a gardener's dream. I'm a new subscriber and look forward to watching the personal touches you add to the interior home and yard.
I live in Fl. where the land is flat and the houses are stucco squares. What a fabulous house and property, I like the view from the back of the property too, it looks old timey and clean.
Beautiful home, I owned a 1897 Queen Anne,it was pretty original like yours. Our kitchen had the original wooden countertops,and original cabinets that went to the ceiling. We had 14 ft ceilings downstairs and 12 ft upstairs. Enjoy your home!😊
Beautiful! I just bought my dream historic mansion. It’s a 1925 3400 sqft fixer upper, & my lists are long. My front staircase is like yours with paneling, but mine curves. The last owner trashed foyer floors & casements with dog urine. It’s something to get out. I am .70 & busy with a million things. I was hoping to find one the size of yours. But I had sold my home & had to make a quick decision. I love the old boilers, I’ve had them in all 3 of my houses, they are beasts. They told me I should replace my first one, but why? It worked fine. I’d hate to have to buy a new one in these days of price gouging & inferior product quality. Love the neat period pieces, the built in ice box! The yard is a perfect size for maintenance purposes. I think I saw this video. Nice piece f property guys! Congrats!
How great is this housr!! The flooring, woodwork and glass are amazing. I enjoyed your walk-thru. Good luck with everything. Take your time and do it right!
That house is downright GORGEOUS! Never saw a wall like that going up the stairs. At least they didn't paint the woodwork. Were the cabinets in the basement once in the kitchen? I'd refinish or clean up that old radio just as a decorating item. My grandparents had one when I was a child. Good sized basement. The only thing thing I can see can that would this house more PERFECT would be to have it sitting on 80 acres! LOL! congratulations!
Not my style of house, BUT it is really lovely! Someone did a lot of work before you purchased. You have much to do. Subscribed to watch your journey. 🤗
Love ,love this house! So beautiful on the inside , a lot of woodworking, I love the wood but,is hard to keep dusted. I know my home has a lot of woodwork also. Your wife is going to need a cleaning woman 😅👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👋
She is gorgeous!!!The woodwork is amazing. I think I heard something a out the dirt fog poor in the basement had something to do with controlling humidity in those older homes.
It's amazing! You could make an ensuite bedroom where your wife's office is going to be, for when you get older and don't want to go up the stairs. I hope you don’t cover the wood with paint 😊
What a lovely home! Can't wait to see what you do with it. Be very glad your wife is kind. I *might* have been tempted to jump out at you when you were filming your basement, lol!
We have a Queen Anne Victorian with a porch like yours but it's NOT enclosed. If I could change one thing about our house, I would get an enclosed porch because you can't enjoy it outside with all the mosquitoes. I live in Wisconsin.
The sink has a little damage, and I don't think I'll use it in the kitchen, but we definitely plan on keeping it and getting it up and running again :)
Really enjoyed your video tour. It appears you have a lot of work to do on your house in the future. How do you feel about that? Will you hire contractors or are you handy around the house?
I have worked on a queen in Santa Cruz Cali looks to be in good shape please be careful with the woodwork and if you really have hardwood doors your very lucky most foe finished pine doors the painters were very good back then
But the majority of it is wood! Brick built houses are better, if they are built properly and with top grade materials they will last a lot longer than the wood ones.
Now that’s when they made houses instead of the crappy houses they make nowadays.
Definitely !

Thank the lord that they did not paint the beautiful wood trim through out the house.
That icebox is a treasure! I've never seen one intact in a Victorian house before. Love your humor also😁

What a beauty! I wish this was the way houses were today still

Greetings from Fairfield Iowa! Our 1896 Queen has a lot of similar features. Congrats on your new home
I have house envy. Thoroughly enjoyed seeing all the original features of your new home.
She is gorgeous! Congratulations!

I love it. I love old houses, I hope you’re able to keep some of the original floors. This house has a lot of potential.
Beautiful details...wood floors, beveled glass, lots of windows... would love to own a victorian home ❤
It's a lovely home. You will be very happy there.
Beautiful house. I love the stained glass and the wood work throughout the house also the flooring in the bathroom.
It’s a beautiful home.
What a beautiful house! The woodwork & floors are absolutely gorgeous! My husband & I were wondering where it is located?
What a find!!
The basement could be where the kids/grandkids hang, put a WE box down there and a mini fridge... Well, you know where they are. :) m
So well preserved! Complete with a horror movie basement. What more could you ask for? Please post updates. Great commentary.
What a beautiful home!! I can’t believe it’s not torn up
Absolutely Stunning May the Good Lord Bless and keep you and your beautiful home.
Greetings from Germany. All the best in the new house, I hope I can watch many more videos. Good luck and see you soon Greetings Maria

Absolutely stunning!!
Great tour , great house ,enjoy
Love the house, looks like it’s in good shape. Congratulations!
Hi, neighbors! Up here in NE Iowa in an 1898 Victorian!
That house is downright GORGEOUS! Never saw a wall like that going up the stairs. At least they didn't paint the woodwork. Were the cabinets in the basement once in the kitchen? I'd refinish or clean up that old radio just as a decorating item. My grandparents had one when I was a child. Good sized basement. The only thing thing I can see can that would this house more PERFECT would be to have it sitting on 80 acres! LOL! congratulations!
Nice vintage home that will benefit from some TLC.
I cannot imagine taking all that on. So much to clear out and clean, repair, replace. I’m tired already. But, I am cheering you on!
Beautiful house.. how lucky you are!! Best wishes..enjoy your new home
Not my style of house, BUT it is really lovely! Someone did a lot of work before you purchased. You have much to do. Subscribed to watch your journey. 🤗
Wood work and floors are stunning ...❤ windows ❤❤..why will those beautiful rooms be offices? Love it..
happy for you, you well have a lot of fun, i know i would.
I love it! My vote is your office on the 2nd floor! In case you're taking a survey. Happy for you and yours Bartz! 💙
Thanks Zubrod! I don't think I can go wrong with whatever room I choose 😁 It will be your turn for a home walkthrough video next!
Congratulations Robert. Cool house.
Please keep making videos as you move in and make it your home. I just subbed.
Love ,love this house! So beautiful on the inside , a lot of woodworking, I love the wood but,is hard to keep dusted. I know my home has a lot of woodwork also. Your wife is going to need a cleaning woman 😅👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👋
Beautiful home
She is gorgeous!!!The woodwork is amazing. I think I heard something a out the dirt fog poor in the basement had something to do with controlling humidity in those older homes.
That basement is perfect for a root cellar, pantry for food storage such as canning, etc and I don't drink but a wine cellar comes to mind, lol.
It's amazing! You could make an ensuite bedroom where your wife's office is going to be, for when you get older and don't want to go up the stairs. I hope you don’t cover the wood with paint 😊
What a lovely home! Can't wait to see what you do with it. Be very glad your wife is kind. I *might* have been tempted to jump out at you when you were filming your basement, lol!
Lovely property. Hope got a good deal. You have a great deal of work to do. Looking forward to see what you do.
Nice house
Great video 📹
Lots of very cool things going on in this house
We have a Queen Anne Victorian with a porch like yours but it's NOT enclosed. If I could change one thing about our house, I would get an enclosed porch because you can't enjoy it outside with all the mosquitoes. I live in Wisconsin.
That beautiful sink in your basement ❤️ Hope you plan on using her😊
The sink has a little damage, and I don't think I'll use it in the kitchen, but we definitely plan on keeping it and getting it up and running again :)
The basement looks like the place where Norman Bates put his mother.
I wonder why the basement was built with separate rooms.
Please I beg you don't paint the wood . amazing staircase , beautiful house. That ice box was very cool.
Really enjoyed your video tour. It appears you have a lot of work to do on your house in the future. How do you feel about that? Will you hire contractors or are you handy around the house?
Will be a combination. I'll do what I can, but I'll have to contract out things that are out of my depth :)
Any updates on house?
I have worked on a queen in Santa Cruz Cali looks to be in good shape please be careful with the woodwork and if you really have hardwood doors your very lucky most foe finished pine doors the painters were very good back then
No servants' stairs? m
Radiator heat not radiant heat, two totally different things
But the majority of it is wood! Brick built houses are better, if they are built properly and with top grade materials they will last a lot longer than the wood ones.
Is it haunted?
Not that we've seen yet!
Photographer moves the camera too much quickly and makes a person dizzy and kind of sick to your stomach.
That's awful when people paint beautiful wood
