OHU50K NOTES

This c.1915 foursquare fixer upper has gorgeous floors and built-ins! I like the penny tile in the second floor bath, too.

Having raised my family of seven children in a c.1915 American foursquare, I can attest that what the realtor says about this style architecture is absolutely true. Unlike this home, where the front door enters straight into the living room, mine had a center hallway that incorporated the staircase.
