Yes it's true. Call me crazy, insane, completely cuckoo. But I'm a sellin my beloved 1906 bungalow.
The hubby and I decided that while we LOVE this place like crazy, we LOVE rescuing old houses more. And there are SOOO many out there that need some lovin. Our kind of lovin:) Beautifying old houses is hands down, our favorite thing to do in the world:)

Wow! I am in love with your home. I can't believe you are selling it but I know what you mean about loving to fix up older ones. We've done that before as well, but then decided to build ourselves a new one. I love it, but really am ready to sell and find an old one again! Ha! Good luck! I shared your post on FB. :)
ReplyDeleteWow, I can't believe you are selling your beautiful bungalow??!?! I understand that draw to renovate an old home though. This is our last one....this was a much bigger project than we ever anticipated!!! LOL...I can't wait to see the next project!! Good luck!!!

Wow! I am shocked that your selling your beautiful home, but excited to watch the progress of your next one. (Which will be just as stunning.) Really, really wish I could buy it, will all the furniture and everything. I could move right in today. Will you take a check?? ;) ~Rosanne
ReplyDeleteYour home is gorgeous! I don't even know what my favorite room is the bathrooms and kitchen are amazing. Love all the furniture and vintage touches. Look forward to seeing what you and your husband do next!
ReplyDeleteI love that house! I can't imagine moving but I understand your need to renovate and love on old houses. My dad is 73 and he is still hard at work on old houses in his hometown. Can't wait to see what you do next. :)
ReplyDeleteOh how exciting. I can't wait to see your new house, and follow along. I bet your home will sell really fast ~ it's beautiful =)
ReplyDeleteOh my heart! How I wish I could buy that bungalow and settle right in on the front porch! You know I have a particular fondness for this house for a good reason and I hope It goes to someone who loves it as much as you do and doesn't change a thing. Will you still be in Mesa? I cannot wait to follow along!
ReplyDeleteI too share your old of the old beauties -- looking forward to what you'll find to love on :)
ReplyDeleteBlessings!

How exciting! I am new to your blog and absolutely love everything you do, I know you will bring much love and beauty to your new home!
ReplyDeleteI love the photos of your home but am selfishly happy about your choice: as a first-time homeowner renovating an historic home in downtown Phoenix, I look forward to learning from your expert renovation in the next home you buy!
ReplyDeleteI feel like one of my beloved neighbors is moving. :( But on the upside looking forward to your next remodeling adventure.
ReplyDeleteHi! I live in Riverton, NJ. I showed my husband your pictures and told him this is EXACTLY what I want. We have had plans to remodel our little home but we could not find any plans we LOVED. I stumbled across your blog one day and was like, "This is IT!" I wish I could put it on a flat bed and move it to NJ! Super excited for you and to see what you do next. You and your husband are so talented. I love that you bring life back to these homes. Good Luck!
ReplyDeleteWish I lived close enough to buy it. Just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteWow! That's really big news! I can't wait to "watch" you do the next one. I was so hoping someone would convince you to do the Home Tour again because I was ready to plan a winter road trip, but maybe the new house :) I love how you see change as an adventure! Best of luck!
ReplyDeleteYou have such a talent for decorating and design plus it'll give you more to blog about!! Looking forward to following your next project!!
ReplyDeleteStumbled on your blog recently...if only it were in WV! Love your home...but understand your excitement to begin a new adventure!
ReplyDeleteOh I will miss seeing this beautiful home! I hope that you will continue your blog and I wish you and your DH a fantastic journey on your new adventure.
ReplyDeleteI have told you before how much I love your home. I would certainly buy it if I lived there!
I will be eagerly waiting to see your next home. :)
I too am new to your blog and fell in live with your home the moment I saw it! I hope this means we will get to follow your new adventure on your blog and you're not moving on from it too! I look forward to opening it every Tuesday and seeing what great ideas you come up with. You all have a great talent and eye for design! P.S. Wallace is awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness!!! can't believe you're selling it. soo wish we were at a place to buy again right now. this has been my dream house for a long time.
ReplyDeletecan't wait to see what's in store!
Dorie - What a fabulous space! Truly magical transformation.
ReplyDeleteMove on and we hope to see you at Sweet Salvage. Lot's of treasures to be found for your new endeavors. ~Cheers

Oh darn it!!! I've been praying and praying you would do the next home tour so that I could come back and bring my best friend to see your beautiful home!!! I hope you won't stop writing your blog. Hmmmm- perhaps you might have a moving sale (fingers crossed).
ReplyDeleteI just noticed your bed. How is it made? Is that just a blanket, cover under the folded comforter. At first glance I thought it was a bedskirt but then I see that might be your bed cover. Love the oatmeal color and just fullness of the skirt. What is it?
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your sell and new buy. How much fun will that be. Starting over is always fun. :)
when first reading this.....I was sad....then I realized how fun it will be to follow along on your next remodel journey!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou have done such a wonderful job on this place, cant wait to see your next project!
ReplyDeleteVery nice do you have some brabbu furniture in there?

I was browsing realtor.com because I'm weird like that and I saw your house for sale. I was like "What the HECK is Dorie doing? I better hop over to her blog and see!". So I did. I don't know how I missed this posting. Anyways, I get it. I'm almost finished redoing my house and I'm bored. What are you supposed to do with all your time if all the house projects are finished? Best of luck finding the next old house! I hope it's close so I can drive by and admire like a stalker.
ReplyDeleteVery nice!!! Lovely home!!!
ReplyDeleteWould love to know where you found the light fixture in the dining area? Just saw these pics. In love!!!
