    I just love the structure of the Edward Beals house. It just looks so cozy! I love looking at old homes and learning the history. We purchased a home 5 years ago and it turned 100 this past January. They just don’t build them like they use to.

    I love architecture from past generations! I grew up in a 1800s era house and have always had an appreciation for old houses.

    I haven’t seen any of these except Glen Oaks – quite pretty. Glen Oaks is now a banquet hall, though – my swim team in high school would hold our yearly end of the season banquets there.
