Calling All Lookiloos

If you’re a lookiloo like I am (and I have a feeling you are!), then you’ll love the website Lookiloos, which offers “a peek into the style and stories behind every door.” They featured this house recently, which underwent a major remodel, more than doubling its original size from 2,000 square feet to 4,400. I [...]

Before & After: An “Everything Room” Makeover

When Hooked on Houses reader Michelle (From House to Home) moved into her 1920s Colonial, she wasn’t sure what to do with the awkward addition at the back of the house. She says they started calling it their “everything room” because the family gathered there to do, well, just about everything. It was a popular [...]

Home-a-Rama House #5: Nantucket-Style Living

This is the final day of our week-long series featuring homes from the Indianapolis Home-a-Rama. As you’re reading this, I’m driving to Nashville for the BlissDom blogging conference. I’m looking forward to meeting some of my blog friends in real life! This 6 bedroom, 8,000 square foot home, which has a stained-cedar shake exterior with [...]

Home-a-Rama House #4: Meridian Modern

By JULIA @ HOOKEDONHOUSES.NET

Today we’re taking a look at the fourth home on the Indianapolis Home-a-Rama house tour. This one was a little surprising. It had a kind of traditional Tudor look to it on the outside, but then it didn’t feel very Tudor-like when we stepped inside. It was built by Henderson Homes and [...]

Home-a-Rama House #3: New England-Style Traditional

By JULIA@HOOKEDONHOUSES.NET

Welcome to Day #3 of our week-long tour of houses from the Indianapolis Home-a-Rama: Luxury Edition!  This traditional New England-style house was built by Phil Myers Custom Homes and is still on the market for about $2.5 million (check out the MLS listing here). It was decorated by Deanna Whetstone and Theresa Sherley of [...]

Home-a-Rama House #2: Environmentally Friendly Tudor

By JULIA @ HOOKEDONHOUSES.NET

The next home I have to show you from the Indianapolis Home-a-Rama was built by Castalia Home Builders, which took a green approach when building it. Builder Frank Redavide says that his company’s goal is to build high-quality, green luxury homes: “The design of this home reflects an English Tudor style with [...]

Home-a-Rama House #1: Heartwood

Home-a-Rama! Those of you who have been reading my blog for awhile know that I’m kind of a Home-a-Rama Home Show fanatic. I have only missed one year’s show, and that was only because I had just had a baby (I should’ve planned that pregnancy better). No matter where I lived, if there was a [...]

Spanish-Style Oasis in Palo Alto

By JULIA @ HOOKEDONHOUSES.NET

When I saw this Spanish-style home featured on Lookiloos today, I couldn’t help but sigh. Doesn’t this look like a lovely place to hang out? And on a cold, icy day like it is today where I live, everything about this looks inviting to me. Ahhh…

I even love the old kitchen windows:

Tickled Pink (& Purple & Peach): Victorian Painted Ladies

Remember the Historic House Tour I told you I went on a couple of weeks ago in Columbia Tusculum, Ohio? I already showed you some photos of it in my Porches on Parade for Fall post but thought I’d show you some more, including a few I took inside.
The neighborhood has rows of Victorian Painted [...]
