Wild, my Great Grandpa built his home south of there in 1904. His sister had contact and rumored romance with the director of the Weld Cnty Grange guy. I just couldn't imagine what life was like back then! She was the Adam's Cnty Grange person.
Very little has survived. You can see bands along the top of the wall, around the door, above the chair rail here where I’m working on the entryway. Upstairs there was a ballroom across the front of the house, that was later divided into three rooms. Pardon the mess, the Mrs bought secondhand cabinets for the kitchen. To the right of that first doorway is a closet, and the stenciling is preserved in it (the closet was likely added at the same time the room was divided).
The shop had a window rotting out. The window buyer mistook my “studs 24 on center” and brought home a 24”x30” rough opening window. I made it fit. I’ve also replaced the downstairs windows with some nice secondhand Andersen windows, but have the housewrap over them for now.
