1840s Ashland, Virginia Home
It’s been quite some time since I featured one in Virginia! This house was built in the 1840s in Ashland, Virgina. I came across this town on an Amtrak ride to DC. The train went right through the town and out of nowhere, we were surrounded by old houses on both sides of the tracks.…

1870s New Orleans Double
Here’s a sweet little New Orleans double that was built in the 1870s. It’s been well-kept all these years. It’s hard to tell, but those top windows are stained glass. I don’t know if I love the brick sidewalk or that beautiful tree more!
