As I was leaving, I spotted this house for sale, 7 bds, 6.75 baths, 10,000 sqft. (asking price, $3,699,999). If you're interested, check the link. The mansion next door is even more amazing. I'll post it next time, just for fun. So, this year I've been to this town 4'X, at the end I said to myself, I must take a couple pics. of such. The street, Upper Mountain Ave is full of mansions like this.

Note: The baseball Great, Yugi Berra was the longtime residence of this town, Montclair, NJ.

For anyone interested, the house shown in this photo is available for rent (as of June 2024) for the bargain price of $115,000 per month (according to Zillow).... Let me know how you enjoyed your stay there if you decide to rent it!

This home sits nearly in the center of downtown Adairsville and is unoccupied and crumbling in on itself, a definite eyesore. Zillow indicates the house was built in 1901 and that it last sold in 1994.

Former Narberth Methodist Episcopal Church, built 1929, converted to condos in 2016 according to Zillow.

A 2,200 sf 3 bedroom, 3 bath unit sold for $659,000 in 2021. Pictures show a very modern, open floor plan. Looks great!

I took this with my phone while photographing the oystercatcher. If you'd like to live here (I sure know I would), it's kind of a good news / bad news situation. The good news is that the property is available. The bad news is the asking price is $40 million. But then again, you don't have to pay it all at once. With 20% downpayment and a 6.5% loan, it's just $202,262/mo (excluding taxes and insurance) spread over thirty years. And on top of that, it has been listed for 163 days, so maybe they're willing to bargain:) The Butterfly House (1951), Carmel-by-the-Sea, California.

Note (8.29.23): You snooze you lose. Sold recently at the bargain price of $29 million.

Note (1.9.24): Whoops, I just realized this is actually the house next door to the Butterfly House, which was built by the same architect.

This one wasn't for sale, but I did find a few really nice hillside homes on the left of the bridge for sale on Zillow, when I was so excited about this northern Oregon town that I contemplated retiring there. (Rainfall for 75% of the year turned me off). It was a nice sunny day when I drove through this past May, however.

One site in my labyrinth of Japan shots has slipped my mind for a while now, but I have an excuse. While I was at Gotokuji it started raining and I haven't made a habit of wiping my lens with a dedicated cloth or something similar, I was using my sleeve (novice mistake in every way, seriously, if you're getting into photography, NEVER wipe your lens with your clothing). So a lot of the stuff is either uninteresting cause I couldn't even get my tripod out, or simply because there was visible water on the lens the whole time.

But there are still some outliers, and this was one of them. This was either a staff building or a merchandise store (incase it was the former I didn't go in) And it's a very beautiful residence, sizeable lot, multiple stories, has the traditional appeal, and Japan is having a housing surplus right now anyways (though understandably a stance against immigration/integration).

So the sky wasn't really blown out this time so to speak, but I was still unhappy. In editing I turned the brightness down as much as possible, I brought the saturation up on the roof and the vegetation, and the rest of the photo remains untapped from the original image. So what do you think? Good first impression? Put this image on zillow and see who bites first

" . . . The house Good designed contains 2,150 square feet on two levels. He calls the style "ultracontemporary" given his preference for steel rather than stucco throughout"

I couldn't resist the Zillow megapack from Addams, especially not at the discount price.

Iowa Interstate heritage unit 513 leads a 110 car train of mixed freight by the former Port Galena Inn in Peoria Heights, IL. No longer a B&B, but privately owned, this home sold for $104,000 in the summer of 2020. I bet most railfans, given the chance, would have paid much more than that based on the location along the Illinois River/Upper Peoria Lake. Here is a link to the listing on Zillow: www.zillow.com/homedetails/4406-N-Galena-Rd-Peoria-Height... 4 bedroom/4 baths, a killer deck and patio with its own boat slip. Does it get any better than this?

NS 219, having endured an hour+ of delays getting out of the St. Louis metroplex, finally stretches its legs out in the flat-ish-lands of southern Illinois. With the rear of the train still clearing Germantown, the head end is at MP45, looking at Bartelso. Perfect sun at this point in the morning, and one of my favorite shots of this move.

I'm checking Zillow to see if that house is for sale.

In the neighborhood.

A place with a view, but somewhat short on amenities.

What is left of one of the many trees fading from existence on Armand and Horsepen Bayous. This grand old snag is prime real estate for the pelicans that visit the bayou during early fall and winter. Not certain if they spent the night on these old branches, but they were there when I arrived on the scene before the sun reached this section of the bayou.

Depressing loss yesterday after loosing a biddy war, a blind bidding war, on this perfect home.

So Sad that I totally took myself out of the real estate market. What could I do? By another place nearby so I could take drive by of the one that got away.

If you are interested in Victorian homes and architecture, you owe it to yourself to look at the photos of the home's pristine interior that are part of the current real estate listing; www.zillow.com/homedetails/1103-37th-Pl-Seaview-WA-98644/...?

=================================================

From the application for National Register of Historic Places Status, granted in the late 1980s:

The Peter Schulderman House is a well preserved Victorian cottage characterized by a picturesque roofline, projecting bays, a broad veranda, and an octagonal corner turret. The two story frame house is located on a small lot (measuring 150 feet by 90 feet) in the ocean front community of Seaview, about one-half block west of the beach. The house is bordered by large bushes and rests on a lawn with tall fir trees and shrubs; a deteriorated carriage house sits in the southwest corner of the lot. A wooden picket fence, with two entry gates, encircles the property. Since its construction as a summer home in the 1890s, the house has retained nearly complete interior and exterior integrity.

The frame cottage rests on a post and pier foundation and is composed of a central cube with hipped roof and two-story gabled bays which project on the front (south) and west side elevations. The projecting bays are rectangular on the upper storys and are chamfered on the first story. An octagonal turret rises at the southwest corner of the house between the gabled bays and above the front entry. A veranda wraps round the front facade from the west gabled bay to the south bay; its rooftop forms the deck of the second story balcony. One story porches project from the east side and the rear of the house. A shallow one story rear addition was built about 1912 to accommodate a bathroom, the only known exterior alteration to the house.

The exterior walls of the cottage are clad with rustic cedar siding on the first story and variegated shingle siding on the second story (in fish scale and diamond patterns). The roof surfaces are covered with cedar shingles (decoratively patterned on the turret). The front veranda is composed of square posts with fan-shaped brackets supporting a flat roof with a shingled skirt. Above the roof is a balustrade which serves as a railing for the second story balcony. A lattice-work skirting hides the foundation and a brick chimney with arched cap rises from the center of the hipped roof.

The cottage is amply lighted by windows, all of which are double-hung, one-over-one wood sash units with simple wood surrounds. Single windows are located on each wall surface of the chamfered first floor bays; second story windows are paired. The polygonal turret features a double hung window on each face, with decorative arched brackets placed over the upper sash to give the visual impression of Gothic windows. A single leaf, panelled front door is placed in the south facade (beneath the turret); similar doors are placed in the south wall of the west bay (leading to the front veranda), on the east wall of the south gable (leading to the east porch), and in the north wall (providing access to the rear porch). A single leaf door in the south wall of the second story opens onto the balcony. Each of the exterior windows and doors has heavy wooden shutters that are closed during the winter months.

Much of the exterior applied ornament is reserved for the eaves and gable ends of the building. The eaves are boxed and feature a moulded cornice supported by decorative brackets. The cornice of the turret features a dentil course and a panelled frieze. The peaks of the projecting gables are decorated with ornamental sunbursts with a band of turned spindles. A tall flagpole rises from the peak of the turret.

The interior of the house is remarkably well preserved and is typical of the summer cottages of the late 19th century. The front door on the south facade opens on to a central hall with steep stairs leading to the second floor. Three downstairs rooms -- a front parlor, a rear parlor, and a dining room -- project off the central hall. The upstairs features three bedrooms and an observatory in the turret. All the rooms in the house have visual and often physical access to the outdoors and the porches and balconies that surround the structure. For example, the first floor front parlor has a glazed bay projecting on the south and a side door leading to the east porch. The dining room has bay windows overlooking the west yard and a door to the front veranda. The rear parlor has a door to the back porch. Upstairs, each bedroom has paired windows overlooking the property. A door in the upstairs hall leads to the front balcony and the small turret is enclosed by windows facing east, south and west.

All interior walls and ceilings are finished in redwood and pine tongue-and-groove siding (laid diagonally on the angled walls of the first floor bays). The floors are hardwood with a dark stain. Because all the interior surfaces are finished in woods, the house has no painted or plastered wall surfaces (except in the bathroom addition). Mouldings around the doors and windows feature simple surrounds with bull's-eye corner blocks. The staircase has a bannister with square newel post and square balusters. The steps are the only carpeted surface in the house and the original carpet is intact.

The carriage house is located in the southwest corner of the lot. It is a gable roof structure clad in drop siding. A small opening in the gable end allowed hay to be raised to a hay loft. The carriage house has a deteriorated foundation and is in need of repair.

The Peter Schulderman House is an architecturally significant example of the Victorian summer cottages built in the late 19th century on the Long Beach peninsula. Constructed about 1894, the house maintains outstanding interior and exterior integrity, and reflects the picturesque aesthetic and rustic quality favored in the resort architecture of the era. According to a survey of historic buildings in Pacific County (1979), it is one of the best preserved 19th century summer cottages in the peninsula's ocean front communities.

Historical Background: Located on the southern end of the Long Beach peninsula, Seaview is one of the oldest resort communities on southwest Washington's ocean beaches. The unincorporated community was platted in 1881 by J. L. Stout, who laid out a grid plan that ran parallel to the vast and sandy beach. The first cottage in Seaview was probably built in 1881 by Edward Devaney (no longer extant), and by the 1890s numerous cottages -- many built by prominent Portland families -- lined the beach front.

Unlike the famous ocean resorts of the eastern United States, the Long Beach resort communities were relatively informal, and cottages were often extremely simple and rustic. As the local newspaper reported in 1900, if retirement be the desire, one can pitch his tent and enjoy solitude and life in repose. Many from Portland and the heated interior have purchased retired, secluded sites along the shore where neat cottages peep from the shrubbery which man has not yet robbed nature of. In summer months, these are occupied by those who wish to escape the heat and turmoil of the city and recuperate health and enjoy life to the utmost. By 1900, an estimated 20,000 people visited the resorts at Long Beach annually.

Peter H. Schulderman lived in Portland, where he owned a transportation and freight business. According to his descendants, he first visited Seaview in the mid-1880s; in 1894, he purchased a parcel that was once part of town founder Stout's 10-acre Seaview Hotel grounds. (The hotel burned in 1892 and was not rebuilt.) Shortly thereafter, Schulderman hired a Portland contractor, Henry Christianson, to build a cottage on the lot using cedar and pine. From its completion until the present day, the cottage has been used exclusively as a summer home by the Schulderman family. When Peter Schulderman died in 1930, he deeded the property to his son, attorney Henry Schulderman. The property is currently owned by Henry's only child, Marie Schulderman Collie, who continues to maintain the residence as a summer retreat.

Among the Portland families who spent summers at the beach, many built simple, rustic cottages, typically one story and gabled (according to historic photographs). The Schulderman cottage was larger than most and reflected the Victorian interest in the picturesque and rustic. The picturesque -- revealed here in the multiple and varied roof shapes, the irregular profile and massing of the house, and the variety of surface texture and ornament -- was seen as an aesthetic well suited to rural settings where the structure could harmonize with the natural landscape. The rusticity of the design was expressed through the use of wood siding, interior wood finishes, and an ample use of porches, bay windows, and a glazed turret which helped integrate the indoors and outside. The Schulderman House is an exceptionally well preserved example of these themes and a reflection of life at the ocean beach before the advent of the automobile and motor court.

I wish I had taken more photos of this house while it was still in this condition. At the time, it was occupied by an elderly woman who obviously did not have the means, either financial or physical, to care for it. When she moved out, I had a chance to see the inside, and it was in a horrendous state. It was raining that day and water was cascading down the inside stairs like a waterfall. Only a few rooms looked relatively habitable. When it was purchased in 2015 for $110,000, the new owners painted it baby blue with yellow trim, which was not a good choice. They repaired the interior and exterior some and built a fence across the front, but the house needs someone with more of a vision and deeper pockets to help it realize its greater potential. It changed hands in October 2021 for a sum of $595,000! Zillow indicates it was built in 1900 and includes 3179 square feet.
