Re: More Pacific NW Older Home Styles

I like the bigger homes. Some of the exterior colors I personally wouldn't have chosen, but other than that very nice.

Re: More Pacific NW Older Home Styles

There are some really awesome Queen Anne type homes in Seattle. I loved some of the architecture out there. You get out "east side" they called it and they get very similar in some developments I'm sure just like across the country.

Man, I'd love to walk thru some of these homes. Unique architecture has always tripped my trigger. Thanks for the pics Wallmaxx.

Cool pics! Older homes have alot more character- I would love to find an old fixer and bring it back to its original "grandeur"

The red one in the last batch is for me.
And the one with the concrete stairs at the corner. Saw that a lot growing up.
Good post. Thanks.
