1930s Mansion Interior Salvage Sale - Date TBD

OHU50K Notes

This might be of interest to some of you. A Lake Bluff, Illinois, mansion interior salvage sale is planned for the end of June.

My husband and I have spent countless weekends salvaging wonderful architectural elements from Jersey Shore tear-downs, nothing as spectacular as what this mansion has, but the elements sure made an impact on our house. When we purchased our 1915 foursquare, the pocket doors were cut in half, colonnades and bookcase built-ins had been removed and replaced with olive green plexiglass, ceilings dropped and a host of other “improvements” needed to be remedied. We found what we needed at the demo sales, and our home looks like it did it 1915 again.

Seller Comments

This 1930’s mansion is being renovated, and much of the existing finish work and fixtures are being removed and salvaged. Lots of elements from the era in which the house was built but also from a subsequent renovation in the 1960s. We’re salvaging everything we can. Some highlights you’ll find: Chandeliers & other lights High end stainless St. Charles cabinets from the 1960s. Sherle Wagner Bathroom Fixtures. Older but still in good condition luxury kitchen appliances from Wolf and Subzero. Decorative tile and architectural elements. Including Batchelder tiles. Marble & Travertine, tiles, slabs, and counters. Oak Flooring. Lead Glass Windows. Doors. Large Attic AC units. Cedar Closet. Steam Room. And much, much more. This is not a rummage sale, serious buyers only. Most items won’t be able to be taken day of. 50% deposit to hold the items for when they are salvaged from the house. Most items will be removed from the house mid June. There will be limited appointments available for the end of the month. Date TBD. Send us a message to schedule your appointment. The address will be sent to those who have made an appointment 24 hours prior to the day of the sale.
