Built by me and DH over a 4 year period. We moved in the summer of 1990. I touched every inch of the the place except the roof and chimneys. I could not bring myself to get up that high.
We did not put wreaths up this year, so this is from a holiday snow a few years back.
I'm hoping to decorate next year.
I have joked saying I will never leave (ashes to be spread in the woods near the house), and that I'll become like the woman in Beetlejuice when/if anyone else ever moves in.

I love it. Looks like a small castle.

Your home is absolutely beautiful! It is an unusual design, which I appreciate. And in a wooded area, where you are surrounded by nature. I am sure you worked very hard to attain your dream. Merry Cnristmas!

What a special, unique home! Thank you for sharing.
DH & I built ours in 2000, I stained the hardwood floors, white oak, hand rubbed, everywhere except, baths, kitchen and laundry. Yep, touched every sq. Inch & love it.
Second story balcony - 👍 !!!

At the time, that was to be the "smoking" balcony, but DH finally quit at 41.
While we don't often sit out there, I still like the way it looks.

We did work very hard and were much younger at the time.
I could never do it again. Had NO IDEA what I was getting into.
DH is a builder and brick mason. He suggested we build a Ranch style house and I had seen brick Victorians in Edenton, NC and Washington, DC.
So, I said, well, let's try one of those What did I know?
Like I said 4 years of hard work, but I am thankful every day.

It's actually not all that big inside (under 2,000 square feet on 3 floors).
But, plenty big for the 2 of us
