I love when I have clients that want to look in the historic neighborhoods in town, especially when they are my friends! Last week Andy came with me since we were looking at two houses in Five Points. And it totally gave me an idea for bridal shots! Perhaps I can convince brides to pose in these awesome, vacant houses where it was originally built to let the light flood in perfectly. I will pass this idea along to the upcoming brides I’m working with and see if any want to. More perks of being a Realtor!

The house on McCullough was originally used as the professor’s dormitory for Williams College in early 1900s. However, it was most recently rented out as a four-plex. There was quite a bit left behind…including that weapon of somesorts that Andy is modeling. Pretty odd.

The yard is filled with Eucalyptus trees! Beautiful leaves, but they don’t smell so great when they bloom. The house boasted over 8 fireplaces, and only one had the original tiles (that I drooled on). I wonder if the current owners stripped all of the others of their tiles. There were also pocket doors missing. It’s so sad when houses lose their original qualities so someone can make a pretty penny. At least most historical home owners that plan on restoring can win the various scavenger hunts that arise.
