Restoration of a New England Farm

Despite its condition, he is captivated by the spectacular view of sweeping vistas and substantial road frontage. Shortly thereafter, he and his wife purchase the property, which they discover is an estate of historical significance.

The couple embarks on the formidable restoration of the farm. The Roman Revival house and Victorian Era barns require much more work than was anticipated. Fortunately, the couple’s background in construction helps them to resolve the many problems encountered. Several years later—after many trials and tribulations—the restoration is completed.

In addition to the documentation of the work undertaken (and a detailed history and genealogy of the property), there are over one hundred photographs of the project from start to finish that allow the restoration to chronologically unfold.
