Been a little under the weather the last couple of days and seeing the white stuff fall out of the sky doesn't make me feel much better.
I worked with a few photos of the house we restored and have had on the market. We received a call from our realtor who had been contacted by a writer from the New York Times. Apparently, this writer is working on a story for their weekend magazine covering homes with rooftop views
When we bought what we call HuntWood Cottage (named from the previous owners of the house... since 1889) .... the cupola, which had been destroyed by the 1938 hurricane, was missing. It had never been replaced so we took on the job of giving this old beauty her crown back. The B&W photo shown here, shows the house as it was around the turn of the century. The cupola fell during the infamous hurricane that ravaged the northeast. When the cupola was blown from its perch, it destroyed the porch below, changing the look of the house for 66 years.
Here's a photo of the restored cupola. I think it really gave the character and distinctiveness back to our little Victorian cottage in the mountains. One more photo .... this one from the cupola .. (btw we call it a Belvedere ... meaning beautiful view). The scene is from HuntWood Cottage looking towards Mount Tecumseh and the Waterville Valley Ski Resort.
