Sometimes I really get to go to some great places. This is one of them.
Built in the late 1700's and finished in the early 1800's, it had languished for years in disrepair on a hilltop in Winnsboro.
But this beautiful home is coming back to life.
Each room painted in the colors of the day and even some of the orginial paint (milk mixed with indigo) to make the most lovely light blue color can be seen. Wide heart of pine floors just glow and a brand new tin roof tops it all off. It really is like a step back in time.
As I went from room to room, I felt as though I should be wearing a hoop skirt, which if I had I would have surely knocked everything off every table I passed by!!
Currentlly the new owners, who have been working on the home for the last few years, are almost ready to reveal it to the public. They were kind enough to let me post a few pictures, but this October the house will open to the public. Keep tuned to the blog and I will let you know when you can see it for yourself.
