Our "New" Old Home

It has been just about one month since we purchased our "new" old home and it has been quite an experience thus far. Each day is full of new surprises -- both pleasant and unpleasant.

The home is a three-story Queen Anne Victorian style house built in 1902 and situated in a quiet corner of Green Bay's Astor Historical District. While only three families have lived in this house in its 110-year existence, the last few years it has been vacant and neglected.  Rather than allow this majestic home to fall into a state beyond repair, we intend to give this home the attention it deserves and restore it to glory.

Through this blog we will document our progress as we tackle projects large and small, snapping pictures to share along the way.  Come back often to view our progress!
