Oh, you know me, Julia! I love Victorians… Aren’t they extremely charming?! What about that front porch, huh?!
Have a lovely week, Julia.

Julia, When checking out some of the homes featured here I often see this comment: “I know this may be outdated but I like /love it anyway…” My question is”Who made other so called experts the ones to follow?Our homes should reflect us and be comfy and welcoming! I don’t personally know a lot of people whose homes are “picture perfect” down to every last stick of furniture! I love my house and get compliments ALL the time but we are neither rich or concerned about what is in! Who cares?I appreciate that you express liking what YOU like! I love looking at the houses! thanks so much!
I love lookig at the homes of your readers…real people. I have not seen a single one that I don’t like. The rich and famous certainly have what we may dream of, and it is sure fun to look at them, but every day readers also live very, very beautifully!
I especially love Jill’s Victorian…old houses get me every time! I’m curious though about that last pic in the listing…where did the sheep and deer come from?!?
Salivating over those Victorian houses for sure!

Hi Julia,I’m so happy I found you site. We have moved 11 times in 43 years of marriage. Why???? I love homes.!!! I love,just love to decorate them to my liking, and all of a sudden I need to move again. Now I’m not going anywhere. I found you and I’m just going to enjoy myself without moving from my chair. However if I had to move again it would be into house number 1. Thank you for you passion.
Hi Julia,
I can’t wait to catch up, the weather has been so nice I’ve had readers block….lol
We are stuck inside today Hurricane Irene is barking at our door, but thank God we have lights and we’re safe and sound…..I just finished a book by Mary Kay Andrews, Summer Rental, what a good read.. My neighbor just lent me a book called Maine, love Maine so I can’t wait to read it…..
I hope you and your family are all doing well….your .kids must be getting ready to head back to school…..I can’t believe summer is coming to an end
Looking forward as always, to your posts…..
All the best,
Kathy
Thanks Julia for posting my house, the blue Victorian!!!! (Jean not Jill
The deer is real, often times Mama’s and their babies. The “sheep” is actually a propane tank, no longer there as we put in a new furnace and moved the tank. My town is Ouray Colorado and I would HIGHLY recommend it for a great vacation spot in SW Colorado. Again, thanks for the post Julia. I too love looking at your readers homes, dreaming of living in all 50 states (and Italy!) as I love to explore new territories.
Oops! That probably means I mislabeled Jill’s house as Jean’s on one of these posts. I corrected it–thanks.
Thankyou for sharing all of these houses with us. My favorite was the blue victorian.
Another great selection of reader’s homes!
I LOVE what they did with the interiors in Elizabeth’s cape in RI. A great mix of traditional exterior and more modern/updated interior. Two thumbs up!
Thanks Dean! That’s just what we were going for. Had to pull off the vinyl siding and replace the fixtures and landscaping outside but we think it was worth it for that classic ‘New England’ look.
Just found your wonderful blog. How fun – house porn. Now when I should be working this is where people will find me. Thanks.
I think I love #4 most. Beautiful.
That 1st house, B&B, is so charming I may die.
They’re ALL really nice! Love the yard in the last one. Each home is very different but lovely. I hope they get their asking price.
Kathy
Thanks, Kathy!
Thanks Julia! I just love your site and all the great houses on here!
Julia: Thanks so much for featuring our house!
I love, love, love your house Martha!! We live only about an hour and a half from the Scranton area, in a house that was also built in 1870, I can only dream of having our house look as nice as yours one day!! just beautiful!
Julia: Thanks so much for featuring our home in New Hampshire.
The first one makes me think of the gorgeous Victorian on Charmed.
What a nice site! These houses all look great, but I have to say I prefer the 1870 home in Pennsylvania. Even though the upkeep can be tough!
We finally sold our house in Rhode Island. Our house remained in the top five-ten most popular listings in our zip code for the entire length of the listing, unheard of!
I think we owe some thanks to your readers for keeping us on page one of trulia and hundreds of hits on zillow. Thanks again Julia!
That’s great! Congratulations, Elizabeth!
Victorian homes are great!
So much elegance.
