Isn’t the Internet wonderful! My great grandfather, Charles W. Bruhl, lived in house #4 and my Grandfather, Guy Startsman, and his wife, Regina Bruhl, lived there and my father, Guy Startsman, Jr. was born there. But, I’ve never seen the inside of the house. But now I have – thanks to you and the Internet.

Thanks much.

i pick house one. it had a nice kitchen to grow plants. the mother in law quarters was very cool. and i just felt like a free bird looking at the pics. it would be the one that i could call home. and feel bad if i put it on the market. though it was a close tie with house 2. i liked the porch better on that one.

i was hoping the outside patio was the hottub. i was wrong. i liked the light blue trim in the newer bedroom. i just didnt care for the layout of the house.

can’t say which is my favorite yet, but have to say how much i enjoyed this tour of #4. (i haven’t peeked at the others yet)
our first home was a stucco american foursquare very similar to #4, but built in 1924. i love the split staircase, wallpaper in the nursery, the detail of the windows, and of course, the screened porch. it looks like a small getaway in your own backyard!
we always dreamed of adding on back then. the addition is fabulous & blends into the original house quite well.

Hi Julia
It was fun to catch up and take the tour with you inside all these wonderful homes. I loved # 4 as it had such a nice kitchen and backyard deck, but each house had it’s own charm.
Thanks! Pat in NY
