h, C.J., that house would have had me, too. Window seats, bookshelves, the smell of wood........wow!

Yeah, this was my version of “The one that got away.” But it has a forever spot in my memory and I can live with that.

I’m glad to know you’re a Victorian House aficionado, as well!

Weird mind of mine went to a song, "To All the Girls I've Loved Before" replacing "Girls" with "Houses" and never bought either the girls or the houses, but remember them well, their looks, their charms, their appeal. Wonder what they might have cost? Yes and in several cases, I did "buy" and considered them investments that paid off well. Yes, both categories of life experiences.

Not weird at all, Gary. To each his own, they say. I’m glad you have your memories, too, and that they were worth tucking into your memory bank <wink>.

Thank you for sharing your experiences. 😁💕

Isn’t it great to have a memory bank with so many deposits that we can withdraw anytime? So many stories, so little time.

I loved the house we almost bought from the moment we opened the front door to the foyer and it just got better and better with every room <sigh>.

Just one time, you should see one, Aria. You won’t ever be sorry. A realtor would be the best way.

I know what you mean about attics. I used to love going up in my grandmother’s attic!
