These people took great care of their home it’s wonderful to see people keep these homes in such great condition and restoration work is great ❤

[@hsimpson6581]

I love it when she tells everybody not to screw these houses up. If you don’t like anything about a house you probably shouldn’t buy it. I agree 100% there is a reason everything is the way it is and if you go changing it you make a mess

[@IcelanderUSer]

Imagine how many flippers have ripped out original details or painted over stained woodwork. Happens all the time.

[@gregpendrey6711]

They remove venerable trees planned by the original architects! 😬🤛

[@markgarland9000]

@@hsimpson6581 I own a '41 Tudor Revival "Cottage" style home. I painstakingly restored the divided light wood windows as well as replaced a horrendous hardboard sided exterior wall with a half-timbered and stucco design. I am committed to retaining the style and design as originally intended. Almost daily I get offers from flippers to buy the house. Already these vultures have destroyed the charm of similar homes around the neighborhood.

[@kristindacus8642]

To a prospective buyer who might watch this video....DO NOT CHANGE ONE THING IN THIS HOUSE!!!! This home is beyond spectacular, and my favorite presentation thus far. It has obviously been loved for many decades.

[@tristazerbe8119]

Laine is preaching in this episode! 😂👏🏻 Love this Beautiful home!!! That sunken living room looks exactly like my grandparents home. I would love to live in a home like this, full of so much history. I wouldn’t change a thing!

[@Homeandthimble]

Wow!! I wouldn’t change a thing! I want a tour of the neighbor’s house too. 😂 looks amazing!

[@SpanishEclectic]

Tudor Revival is the one that could make me give up my Spanish style house. Many of them here in Southern California have very small rooms, unfortunately, unless it's a mansion. We had to give up our original 7.5 gallon tank toilet due to water conservation restrictions, but as you say, preserving everything you can is important. We also have those narrow strip white oak floors, though ours had been covered with (some rather disgusting) wall to wall carpet. That went to the dump and we had to pull the staples out with pliers, but it refinished very nicely. My second biggest regret is that because of the thick carpet/pads over the years, the prior owner had the bottoms of all of the doors cut off, including the gum wood ones. >:( I did some chain of title research and found out he lived here from 1951until 2002, and did no other permanent remodeling, so I guess I'll forgive him. :)

[@lisaknell1809]

I visited California in 1995 and fell in love with the Spanish/Moorish architecture. I would love to live in Whitley Heights. ( I know, dream on!) 😂 I bet your home is gorgeous!

[@deborahmatatall]

This one is a delight! It seems as if it was conjured from a fairy tale. I especially love the brick on the exterior. I would spend all my free time in the gardens or on the patios and balcony. Thank you for taking us on a tour of this magical place.🌸

[@liamkatt6434]

My wife's family home in Peckforton, Cheshire , England is 500 years old. It was an inn once and Oliver Cromwell stayed there while laying siege to Beeston Castle.

[@kennethstuckey7823]

The music on this video makes you feel like you're going to the opera inside this house. This house is a true architectural gem! When you first see it, it deceives as you never would think it is as large as it is until you get inside and be pleasantly surprised of it's spaciousness and airyness. A well flowing house indeed. Those outside grounds encapsulate a true treasure, a serene hidden oasis that is not only breathtaking but extremely private. The "oasis" is perfect for a swimming pool, but it shouldn't be a large one. That sunken living room should be renamed the Great Room for its spectacular size and views of the garden. This house's interior is a decorator's blank canvas that can be recreated beautifully and magnificently.

[@lindawashington500]

This home is beautiful!! I love that the bathrooms haven’t been torn out❤

[@jelsner5077]

The walk up to the house is magical. There are artisans who make custom, wood frame windows. Brent Hull in Texas comes to mind. I bet the original windows had some leaded and stained glass panes. Some of those 50s plate glass windows would look so much better divided. But I love the sunken family room! Definitely needs a bar down there.

[@merryhill4790]

Loved this treasure, just hoping the next owners will love and appreciate it. This home as many in that period looks solid as a rock.

[@LaurenOliviArt]

I also love Kevin’s video work! Thanks Kevin!

[@deannamcnamer1424]

I am sure you get tired of hearing people's views on your outfits, but that blue is stunning on you!

[@charityhostetter8123]

Love this house! The "hobbit" front door is perfect. Such a beautiful place to call home and raise a family in. 💗

[@KentuckyGirl]

Lovely, what a lifestyle to live in this house. Kind of a lord of the Rings vibe going on.

[@justaguyandsomemovies6492]

Yeah, I wouldn’t change a thing I love this house it’s beautiful I love the bathrooms. I love the kitchen I love yard just gorgeous but those Mika lights have to go back up.

[@wckdaintgood]

This one is easily my favorite

[@missusd1130]

Art tile! Art tile! I LOVE art tile!

[@wildfireintexas]

What an absolutely stunning property. I LOVE the gardens. I don’t usually understand what Laine is talking about, but painting over those fireplace tiles in the front parlor 😳.

[@jillianmaloney3798]

Love the windows and door frames from this era. And yeah, like someone said Tudors seems to usually be a lot bigger than you expect from the outside like this one! Gorgeous grounds and patios. Love the cottage-y feel of tudors. I wonder which house was built first with that view 😹.

[@jennieloump96]

That home is really beautiful ❤️

[@lowentx]

Beautiful home. I love all the hardscace and flowerbeds. ❤

[@culdesacgrocerygarden]

Gorgeous home. I wouldn't change a thing except the paint color in a few of the bedrooms. Thank you for sharing.

[@what1dreamt]

Gorgeous, wouldn't change a thing in it!

[@michaellui74]

Beautiful house

[@jennifercollins2592]

Beautiful!! And the house next door! 😍 Almost makes me want to move to Arkansas. 😉

[@susandunaway8290]

The gardens and those fireplaces are beautiful!

[@charlesthompson457]

Love to see that a dog graces this home!🐶🥰

[@brendaprice4664]

Love to see so many original details maintained and restored. That basement is a gold mine!

[@laurasmith6021]

I have watched this episode over and over. I love this house as is, 100%! My dream would be to buy it furnished with the decades mixed of furnishings. Those views. A home to make memories.

[@AdrianaDuckworth-ce9mh]

Just WOW a beautiful home thank you for showing us 🙏

[@debbralehrman5957]

Ok I think you have found my favorite type of Architecture. Not to say I haven't love seeing the other homes you have shown. But yes for me is the one I like best. 💓 Thank you both for always sharing these amazing places. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@infinitelightcouncil]

When I was little I thought this was how Rich Folks lived- and I think I was right! The garden is lovely- my Grannie had those big "Snowball" bushes. I was in my 20's before I found out they were Hydrangeas

[@claudiamann7111]

Thank you so much for another wonderful tour. I am so glad that they left so many of the original items. People are way to quick to rip out. The gardens are also gorgeous.

[@lorascelsi8102]

❤ perfect condition. Stunning.

[@susiecox8413]

Gorgeous home! Thanks Laine and Kevin.

[@chucksuter6551]

If I was a betting man, and those gardens were put in in the 40s or 50s (originally ofc) that is probably a Lambert Landscape (Dallas founded 1919 extensive work across the country), which means it’s a heritage landscape of great value. Doesn’t mean it can’t be be changed just means it’s a treasure

[@terrielee8622]

This home is amazing!!🫶✨

[@birdsndog5932]

Beautiful. Unique. Reasonably practical, too. Love the original en-suite bath. Amazing. Someone will have a honey of a home.

[@birdman5223]

OMG u read my mind right off the bat😱 UNCANNY😵‍💫

[@QueenCityHistory]

I LOVE Tudor revival houses. There’s a whole neighborhood in my city that’s threatened to be demolished of homes just like this.

[@gigglesribera2379]

OMG. The choice of music 🎶 🎵 leading up to the walkway of the amazing splendor of the home. OMG. I couldn't stop bawling. 😢 Literally, the majestic scene is phenomenal. TY. TY for sharing. ❤❤❤❤

[@pattymiles2688]

Love it EXACTLY as it is! I’m an odd ball but to me, it’s perfect! Unfortunately it’s more than I could afford🤧

[@gabriellapettit7655]

That’s a lot of house - and it is gorgeous. Everything (especially the baths) need to be retained. I would buy this home for the established gardens alone! My life would be spent in these gardens. Magnificent. Thank you for this tour - great job as usual.

[@patriciamason9884]

love these homes! I think I was born in the wrong time span.

[@SteveL2012]

We have a 200 year old house, from the Georgian era, and all the mouldings and wood work were always painted. The bias toward unpainted wood work cannot be generalized. Several periods started with painted wood work, and it is often period appropriate.

[@anthonypopola5773]

You are correct, but Cotswold, Tudor, Tudor Revival almost always had dark oak or chestnut woodwork, it’s a nice house, but no real Tudor features…

[@davidpatrick9865]

Video is beautifully done in every way! Thank you.

[@LaurenOliviArt]

Can I just say that I love your channel! I love love loveeeee it !!!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@OurRestorationNation]

Thank you so much!!

[@filenotfound6203]

Love the plaster panels! It would be so amazing to have an archive of finishes like that. So glad that information has survived!

[@karenstanislaw8912]

Beautiful home, beautiful property. Handsome, gracious place.

[@pamhutzell8268]

Very beautiful!!

[@EAP2films]

That wrap up was poetry.

[@WinstonSmithGPT]

It was amazing to see you standing in front of my kitchen door!😂 my house is colonial in and out, unfortunately, since Tudor is my favorite. The door to my kitchen has a nice half round arch though! Exactly the same!

[@califdad4]

There's a beautiful 1929 Tudor home in my neighborhood , it's stucco was timbers and still has the original windows, but not wood trim, they are the painted iron roll out pained windows , they are quite beautiful, still sitting on 3 acres on top of a hill , and original sunkin living room from 1929. The people who built it owned the local Ford Lincoln dealership and this was was then outside of the city limits. This house has had a large swimming pool since it was built. It's quite beautiful and about 3300 Sq ft. This is in northern California

[@mariamyousef4224]

OMG THE SETTING!!

[@terrysuemakesvideosforyou9940]

Hi! I love your videos! Could the art tile in this house be from Pewabic Tile Company in Detroit Michigan? They have been making art tile since 1908. I know that this house has the feel of historic homes that I have seen and lived in . In Detroit and other Ohio homes there are tiles like these. You can still get replacements if you need them! Thank you for showing one of my favorite styles of homes.

[@shantavanee]

I love it!❤❤❤

[@TheresaHanssen]

Wow! I love this house, and I’m crazy about the original bathroom!

[@zanna9857]

I'm going to have to do some research...my home has 50s aluminum windows (on the main LV picture window), but has 40s light fixtures & the exact narrow hardwood floors in this episode. I thought the house was built in the 40s but the (incorrect) paperwork says 56. It also maintains its original banana yellow counter & backsplash w/orange boomerangs! 😅

[@OriginalBigThing]

Always wanted a house with a green tiled roof!

[@lisaknell1809]

Gorgeous home inside and out. I ❤ the gardens too!

[@bonnie2057]

I like watching your channel Its like being taken back in time seeing these little treasures i like that you have alot if insight into details of the homes

[@lillyashnightveil4678]

What a cute house 😍. I was astonished to see real glazed tiles on the roof. They give the house a real fairytale like look. Where I live this kind of roofing is standart, but it seems something that is not used so much in the states?

[@CassieDavis613]

I wish I could see these houses in person. I used to attend local fundraising home tours, but they got pricey, were done in the hottest time of year, and the crowd was suffocating--so many people and it became a rushed event.

[@chastityhunter8018]

Love the music! And the home! 😊

[@paulavogel9447]

I wish all people who buy old houses would leave to the time period with all there fixtures colors if you want new buy new you buy older houses for the extras that are there this house is beauitfull

[@elviracontreras5928]

Beautiful home.

[@ale7564]

Ugh! I so want to take the door hardware off and clean it. It was be even more gorgeous.

[@conniebarnes7383]

Love this home!

[@earllutz2663]

Another great presentation.

[@stephenburns3678]

Enjoyed. Thank you

[@joanreichenbach4896]

It looks like there could have been a third floor(see 16:58). There is a very cool awning.

[@KittyHannah]

With all those tree I know that beautiful landscaping is so much work!!!! I know because my property has a lot of tree like that. It's beautiful and shady in the hot summer but BOY is it a lot of work.

Free the fish! Open the indoor koi pond! You can never have too many fishes! ;-)

[@danasorton6688]

Okay Restoration Nation, I need suggestions. There are 3 lovely homes in my small city close to Seattle that look like fairy tale cottages. Gorgeous. Yesterday I saw on Zillow that 2 have been purchased along with 2 other lots. Because of everything that has been going on in this area, I'm certain that they will be bulldozed and the ugliest condos you can imagine will be put up in their place. I've seen cottage after cottage fall to the wrecking ball over the past few years, but these houses are special. They were never for sale on the market, so no one could have stopped it. I know that everyone gets to do with their property as they please, but this infuriates me. Any suggestions?

[@OriginalBigThing]

That’s A LOT OF HOUSE for $925,000!

[@dougl945]

But in Arkansas. No thanks

[@audreygf2663]

A serious question. Originally, would the exterior portion of the front door have been painted?

[@libertycan6959]

🎉

[@San-vg4tu]

❤❤❤❤

[@larrypicard8802]

Lovely grounds but for the price the kitchen is lacking. The fireplaces are gorgeous and I can't believe someone painted them over.

[@susanharrah3462]

I didn't see anything wrong with kitchen. A little dark maybe

[@megfuchs9425]

If you want to modernize a house, don't buy a historical home! I do not understand why people look at historical homes and get all excited about how they will modernize it!

[@birdman5223]

You guys would like a tv program called Restored if you dont know already.

[@OurRestorationNation]

We really like him.

[@IcelanderUSer]

The garage may have had a pit to work on the underside of automobiles.

[@jennieloump96]

There are so many people who want a old house just to make it all over to look new it makes it ugly to me

[@nicki8731]

16:30

[@philhoward4466]

i could not see where the rooms are. after the garage scene the camera went up carpeted stairs. was this over the garage? when out on the 2nd floor deck a turn around view showed a 3rd floor window. what was in the 3rd floor? did Richard Norman Shaw ever come to America? how did he have such influence in America?

[@stephenburns3678]

Layne. Have you published any of your design thoughts ? Regards. Steve Burns

[@connieparker8896]

Love this home, how do I find out more about the purchase?

[@OurRestorationNation]

The Zillow listing and realtor contact is in the description

[@mtnwoodsy3738]

The question I usually have is.. why are the owners selling??? these are ..homes for 2 or 3 generations of the family to live in and pass down. I could understand how older people would need to move , with no heirs...if I had seen this ..back in the 80's wow..

[@OurRestorationNation]

Sadly the children have all moved FAR away due to marriages and careers. Trust me. There were so many tears when they were moving their precious parents out.

[@ThePinkPrincessJEN]

The price went from 504 to 925. I wonder why.

[@jobellecollie7139]

If I have ask… How. Ugh?😊

[@patrickmullane30]

How much are they asking?

[@OurRestorationNation]

The Zillow listing is in the description.

[@missusd1130]

Is anyone with me that the ultra brand new modern homes are UGLY, unaffordable, and something that NEVER should have happened, especially the ones with hideous futuristic outsides and with dark slate grey, burnt orange, greyish navy blue, and dark army green. I wouldn't buy one of those in a primo locale even if I was a multimillionaire. I have no patience for ultra modern gated communities. I want my smaller Tudor or neo Victorian collage! AC sure, and pool and internet, but the rest I can dispense with. I hate industrial too--those aren't houses they're office buildings. I LOVE this Tudor!

I wouldn't change a thing!! If you did, it would destroy the integrity of the home!
