My great-grandfather lived in this house, and my dad grew up next door!! When we would go to my grandparent's house next door for Thanksgiving, all the grandkids would go to the abandoned house and my dad and my uncle would tell stories of the house. I love this house so much, and it brings tears to my eyes to see someone giving it the love it so truly deserves.

Funny story, I was the last person who lived in this home before you bought it. Look forward to seeing what changes you make. Good luck!

Thank you so much for the lovely introduction to your new home. It brought tears to my eyes. Since I was a child, I have felt the soul of old homes and cried over the loss of the ones abandoned and no longer loved. So happy for you and your beautiful home - that you now have each other. ❤❤

Isn’t it heartbreaking to see one’s fall into such terrible disrepair that they can’t be saved? I’ve always loved old houses.

I’m am soooo happy that you and your husband have purchased the house and are going to put your tender love and care into it. My Great-great-great-great grandfather (Dr. Samuel Sevier) was once the owner and resident of the house. I always wished I had the time, money and know-how to restore the house. It makes my heart happy that someone is going to do just that! Congratulations on your purchase, happy renovations and welcome to the neighborhood!!!

I love Practical Magic and I love your house. Are you in Florence now? I'm in Pulaski. I just had to sell my over 100 yr old home because of divorce after 30 yrs together. Why should I have to sell my home for a divorce where my husband cheated with my best friend and she got pregnant? So after my attorney fees ...about 35k ..I'm left with not much of anything. Your magic can cheer me up.
