This is not a house, but a dream. It is exactly what I dream of having, everything original, so much wooden details.... splendid!
As do I. Unfortunately, i wont be able to ever afford one where i want to live because flippers swoop in and buy them.

I just don’t get why in this modern age we don’t use pocket doors like people seemed to use before. It’s so much more convenient. This house is absolutely beautiful.
I grew up in an old Victorian home and pocket doors are my weakness!!!!!
The house that I have now has two pocket doors
I added them to my 1960’s ranch house for this very same reason. LOVE them especially in a smaller space where doors can take up room that is needed.
Having worked at a place with pocket doors I can tell you this. When they fail. They fail miserably and are much harder to repair than a swing out door.
They often aren’t in working order. I have some; one slides well, one doesn’t. For that reason, I cannot use them (yet). The last house I was in had them too. It was c 1898. The pocket doors worked but banged a bit upon opening, squeezed, and barely fit. I think they were made a bit short. For that reason, they weren’t super convenient. I had stripped them partially and had to sell the house. Wonder if they remained, but I hope so!
It is so rare to find a house from this time period that is move in ready with so many original features still intact. Absolutely beautiful!
I just love the pocket doors and the beautiful tiles, especially in the eating area. Great workmanship and design.
Though even with a move-in-ready historical home, there still might be structural issues underneath.
That place "suffers" from an over-abundance of places you would want to be. Morning coffee on the...balcony? Sun room? Patio? Garden? I CAN'T! Also, what's the attic like? Also also, thank you for the perfect tour. Perfect. Tour.
Sorry we didn’t make it to the attic this time.
@@OurRestorationNation Don't you dare apologize! That tour was beautiful. I was just curious.
Nobody would suffer here.It would be the gift that keeps on giving.If the “turret “ is accessible what a fun little room with a view.Plenty room for a big family.Would be echoey but with wall to wall carpet would fix that .My family lived in a Tudor style house we had carpets and heavy curtains .
It was a beautiful house.There were 7 children in my family.all others older.
Monday coffee in the turret.
Tuesday coffee in the sunroom.
Wednesday coffee on the patio.
Thursday coffee on the balcony.
Friday coffee in the breakfast nook.
Saturday coffee in the garden.
Sunday coffee in the parlor. 😂
It’s fine, I drink 2-3 cups a day especially if I have a day off. Just drink each one in a different spot and set for the weekend
The adorable Kitty goes perfect with the beautiful home.
Oh my word it seems not a thing has been neglected. WOW. We know the money/time/attention that takes, soooo much work. SENSATIONAL house. Hats-off to the owners for the love and care they've clearly taken.
Well! the house seems to be in great shape,but that is a very low price,so I'm wondering what's wrong with it? I do see some repairs need to be addressed outside,several cracks here and there in the garden.
@@pizzafries Are you sure its a "low price" for Little Rock, Arkansas?
It's a beautiful home but upkeep on all that woodwork alone would steer me away.
Spectacular house. I was gasping with each revealed beautiful original detail. My hubby said “is that restoration lady showing you pocket doors again”. He knows my heart. Those doors in this house are amazing! Thanks for sharing. I wish we could move to Arkansas.
I lol’d at pocket doors! Lol I also love them
That's so sweet! (You're husband's inquiry).
I love ❤️pocket doors, too! ❤️I'd never seen one til I was in my early 20's (1988) and I thot they were a super modern entity, and that that's why I'd never seen such a thing.
(It was in a partially remodeled apt built circa 1900). Lol! BTW: They are a feature in my cousin's 5-ish year super- modern, pristine home n'hood, so I'm guessing they're popular again. 👏👏 That's so exciting to me!!.🎉💃💃 Glad to know there's some out there who "gets me". Lol 🤗😂
Everything is so beautiful. Even the Cat is gorgeous!
I am SO GLAD you took the time to speak about why all the woodwork on the second floor is painted. That is the number one thing that irks me about older homes with beautiful woodwork. Every single time a home goes on the market, somebody decides it will look cleaner and brighter and bigger for prospective buyers if they slap white paint everywhere. I live in an area that has so many gorgeous old homes, but finding one with original, unpainted woodwork is nearly impossible. SO...after seeing all that SPECTACULAR woodwork on the first floor, I would have been grinding my teeth if you hadn't taken the time to explain why the second floor is painted. (I learned something, too.) Thank you. This home has truly wonderful original details. What a gem! Extraordinary.
What a stunning house. I was guessing that it was gonna have a million-dollar price tag because it is so magnificent and has all those original features. The bonus of buying a home where real estate is cheaper. This is my lotto dream house!
Just wow. And not even 700,000? That's gorgeous. Hope it sells to good and appreciative hands
Dropped to 550k!
@@CarlosG2288 wow
My house is no where near as nice and worth $650,000.
@@yeahright3733 me too!
I thought for sure she was going to say $1.2 million.
This is a breathtaking example of a fine Victorian lady. Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful home.
Just found you 2 days ago and can't stop watching! My home was built in 1772 German stone bunk house which was a fort during the indian wars. I've been restoring for 33 years and always wanted to expand my passion....just like the two of you! LOVE LOVE LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!!
Stunning house. I appreciated the craftsmanship and beauty of all of it, but I coveted the breakfast nook. That was the happiest room I have seen in a long, long time! The 1910 remodel was exemplary!
Just a shame that such beauty requires living in Little Rock! Love the house and the price is amazing. I hope it isxlovingly maintained thru the upcoming years,
Jim Hallett - Exactly. So sad it’s in Little Rock. 😢
Homes today are just not built to last like homes were 100 plus years ago. The fact that these homes are still standing today is evident of the quality. Builders of yesteryear were true craftsmen. Such beauty. Such quality. These homes are truly national treasures.
Laine, I just love the way you present. Your energy is contagious, your affect delightful, and you come across as well-spoken and educated.
Thank you!!!❤️❤️❤️
OMG! Your killin me small's! This would be beyond my dream home! I've never seen one as stunning as this gorgeous lady. I actually was expecting the price to be closer to one million. Thank you for sharing and letting me drift away into a dream and another time. 💖💜💖
I'm just in awe at all the original features of this home and how pristine they are. Wow. This house is spectacular.
I appreciate so much that you know A LOT about all these topics and you take the time to teach us. I always learn something while watching/listening to these videos.
Can someone please explain to me just why a house in the States is called “Queen Anne Victorian”?
@@Bethi4WFH it’s literally in the first 1 minute of the video
@@OurRestorationNation They obviously didn't make it to the second minute.
This is an AMAZING home! Fortunately, I know the lovely couple who restored and loved this home back to its pristine condition. What a treasure to have in Little Rock Arkansas! Every inch of this home has been restored with incredible detail and research. Just stunning!
They did an amazing job! The house is perfection!!
What a beautiful home. My grandparents are from Arkansas and we used to vacation there in the summer. This house is not expensive at all (compared to CA prices). I hope the new owner loves it just as much as the current owner.
650K for Arkansas? You must be joking.
Still a lot for me. Not cheap in my eyes.
New Englander here and can vouch for this easily being viewed as a million dollar home if not multi-million depending on its specific location. 650K is no little thing to look at but for what you're getting--it's a steal.
@@EyeGlassTrainofMind I understand that completely but still a lot even if it’s a steal from those type of homes.
Houses like these in San Diego go for SEVERAL million $$$. Being so near to the ocean though, their structures aren’t in as impeccable shape as this pristine beauty is. 😍 Simply to die for!
There are no words to describe the beauty! I never thought that I would leave my birth land for any other, however, this home spoke to my very soul! Oh, how I would love to live here! Thank you, Elaine, and may the Lord always shine his light on you!
What an absolutely beautiful house!! Compared to those multi- million dollar homes that have no character this is stunning!! And so cheap compared to those new builds I mentioned above. I don't live in the US and realize that it isn't in NY where property is at a premium but this is so much more.....warm,elegant and inviting.
I live in the US but on the west coast and it's expensive to live here. It's amazing you can get a beautiful home like this full of character for what a normal house, albeit a nice one would cost in the west.
One of the most beautiful homes Ive ever seen! Such style, it's a work of art that you can live in, it doesn't get much better than that! 👍😁
Wow! Living in a town that has a preponderance of these types of houses, I’m impressed by the attention to detail. Someone once told me (who owns one of these houses) that a true Victorian has at least 4 different paint colors on the exterior. Most of the houses like this in my town have been converted into apartments and office spaces.
The historic part of my city also has victorian houses turned into offices. Which is such a shame :/
@@fernanda5g I guess it's better than tearing them down, but it's so much nicer when they're kept as homes.
$650,000 is cheap, however the upkeep would be horrendous! It seems like people with a lot of money want everything brand new. What a gorgeous house! I hope someone that will love it and keep it up will buy it!
Here here, I agree on the price. Way too cheap. Love the sun and sleeping porches carriage house steals the show
Definitely.
Hopefully the new owners will be active to keep the home in top shape. It’s gorgeous and a lot of space in that home for the upkeep.
Please enlighten me about the expensive upkeep of a house like this one. Everything looks in mint condition, I am guessing the exterior wood parts are going to need maintenance at least every three years.
@@SofiNme365 heat, lights, water-mostly utilities, but I’m sure there would still be plumbing and electrical issues. Some sort of cleaning lady or ladies, grounds keepers, gardeners, house insurance, real estate taxes, to name a few! Some of these would be an expenses with any house, but multiply it times at least 5 or 6!
What a spectacular Queen Ann house. I’m still drooling. They could never make these kind of homes today. To think of all that detail wood work was all made by hand. I hope n pray that who ever buys it plan on keeping its beauty as is. Hope they don’t go in there n start tearing down walls n tearing up the kitchen to modernize it. If they did that as the seller I’d be mad as he##.
I have to compliment you Laine how well you speak of this house n all the others you’ve done. Give so much knowledge n education in them n I love that about you. It’s a beautiful house that would make a beautiful n happy home. ♥️♥️😊👍👍👍
Being the other side of the pond I was perplexed by the title! You gave the explanation straight from the get go. I really enjoyed watching this, professionally done. Am now subscribed!
Not like I'm an expert (as I am def. not), but I KNOW if one wanted to build something like that today (firstly, virtually could not, as those materials are finite and we couldn't get them, at any price), it would cost multiple X the asking price, NO DOUBT whatsoever. What a beauty.
I cried with joy at the reveal of every part of this beautiful Queen Anne Victorian. The owners have meticulously paid attention to every detail! What a delight!! 💗💕💗
Honestly,This is a Stunner !Wow
I believe you could make a shed sound awesome. This would be exactly what I would have loved to live in back in the day. It is stunning and has been lovingly cared for through the years. I thought the cost would have been a million or so but I live in California. Thank-you for taking us on a tour of this gem of a Queen Victorian.
She truly could. 😂😂 I can’t get enough of their videos. What a fun couple, love the work they do and her incredible presentation abilities!
Magnificent, gorgeous, wonderful wood work, craftsmanship. I hope someone who loves historical homes would buy this and take care of it
*Faints * This is my dream home Queen Anne❤️🥰Laine ,I love how you explain the history of the houses !! I also love the restoration videos you guys are the best ..Ty for what you do for your fans
i LOVE rooms separated by doors. thank you for closing the large pocket door at 8:50! :)
This house is amazing! Oh my word!!!! I love the fact that it retains so much of the original character. So beautiful! If I had the money I would buy in a heartbeat. Absolutely gorgeous! God bless
Did I watch this tour a second time? Yes, I absolutely did.
Forty two years ago, I looked at a Queen Ann home that I wanted so badly. It had stayed in the family since it was built. It was in wonderful shape despite it’s age, and had a third floor ballroom,and the original cistern in the basement. It still had the original carriage house, and hitching post in the front of the house. I have never forgot about it, but I’m too old now to take care of it. At the time, it was at $84,000.
How I wish I were younger so I'd be able to tackle a home and restore it like you do!! I'll just vicariously live through you both while you restore. I have used your paint stripping and antique linen whitening advice from your youtube channel. So good!!
I am in Toronto Canada and this masterpiece of architecture and exquisite craftsmanship would definitely be listed over $3 million. Absolutely beautiful restoration. I wish I lived in the US 😢
Would be $10 mil in Australia.
Wow. I feel so much respect and appreciation for the care and effort that the owners must have put into this house. Its so beautiful!
What an incredible home! Meticulously cared for and maintained! These owners were blessed to have this house in their care! I hope it sells soon to some wonderful people and caretakers!
P.S. Must add that the blue and white tile floor in breakfast area - stunning, as is all the tiling and embossments within and around the mantels. GORGEOUS.
Beautiful restoration! Thanks so much for sharing this with us. I can't believe the price. I expected more than a million. I hope someone gets it that will continue to love and honor it!
I love how you casually educate the viewers with little bits of architectural information, describing certain features and giving names and explanations of those features. Good job! Beautiful home. I grew up in an Queen Anne Victorian in Mississippi. We called the fretwork "gingerbread".
Amazing that these grand houses can survive a century and still look impeccable.
Oh gosh what a treasure! And thank you for finally explaining Queen Anne! I moved to MI from UK in 1980 and you are the first person who has clearly explained the meaning!! It all makes sense NOW! That really is a remarkably well-preserved home but still eminently comfortable and livable from what you were showing - the kitchen really was so impressive and the dining nook as desirable now as it ever was - so amazing it didn't have its heart ripped out in the dreaded 60's or 70's! Thank you for showing us around, hope it finds a sensitive, loving new caretaker soon. Looks like a bargain to me! (Where I doubt you could buy a decent dog kennel in Sydney for that $$!!)
I'm in awe at how perfect this house is. I hope the new owner takes care of it.
Wow, nothing built today has the same warm inviting feel like this house. This house is relaxing, cozy and warm all at once.
I am speechless!! This is MAGNIFICENT 🥺❣️ the house of my dreams!!
Breathtaking!! The wood and fireplaces are magnificent. Thank goodness no one ever got in there and painted the woodwork.
The tiles are gorgeous. I hope who ever bought it appreciated the stunning grandeur of this home. It took me years to find my 1924 home with all the woodwork never painted.
Unbelievable, this house is amazing. Love your channels. They make my heart sing to know there are still many houses of the early eras still with us. Thank you for another great video. ❤️
It is a beautiful home I have always loved the Victorian style and furniture. Thank you so very much for sharing this. From Edmonton, Alberta Canada !!!!!
$650,000 seems very reasonable for such a beautifully restored home. Call me crazy, but even with all of the beauty inside this gorgeous lady, the brickwork in the chimney at the end really caught my eye. It really adds to the appeal of the architecture. 💙
Ugh just so beautiful. I can only dream of such a home. I have a soft spot for older architecture. Wonderful. Painstakingly restored.
What an exquisite home beautifully maintained by the owners. Should be a museum vs selling to future buyers who may not appreciate this fine home. Thanks for the tour.
600k is a steal. Thank you for the tour. Interesting and informative. This would make a good movie set too. Someone should come up with a period drama and showcase this beautiful home.
Aloha, what a beauty indeed. I actually felt like I was living there back in the early1900’s! Those were wonderful times for many when it came to luxurious living.
You must be vibrating with excitement just standing in that beautiful home!!!! Exquisite!!
I wish this would be $1M+ but fingers crossed that this home will continue to be kept up like it has been! What a delightful treasure.
Absolutely agree my favourite, I’d buy in a flash! Just a little to far away!
I am in ciomplete respect of you as a realtor to show these fine older homes that are historical. Most modern homes are all just cookie cuter homes with no fine character. I appreciated the owners who restored this fine home. I hope it goes to an excellent new owner.
Thank you Tiffany. Just to clarify, I am not a realtor and am not associated with the sale in any way
@@OurRestorationNation I still appreciate your help and showing traditional living to keep our traditions! Most homes today are so boring and have no unquie character to it!
Absolutely jaw dropping! The detail they put into houses back then is incredible. Super beautiful home
That house is stunning! Homes constructed prior to the 1960s were built with longevity in mind. In contrast, modern tract homes are often designed to last only around 60 years.
What a beautiful home. Thanks for the tour. Watching from the Southern Tier of the Catskill Mountains in Upstate New York USA
Welcome John!!
Words cannot describe the beauty of this home I wish I could buy home and all furnishings as they are perfectly done by the owners and do justice to the home. The new owner will be very lucky indeed to call this residence home. Thank you for a wonderful tour
A home I could only imagine I lived in in another life. I have been drawn to Victorian style since I was 7. Having had a reoccurring dream of a larger Victorian home from then, until I was twenty one.
This is unironically the most beautiful house I've ever seen. It's exactly everything I've dreamed of since I was a child.
What a wonderful, wonderful house, but the best feature of that house: The cat in the flowerbed!
Wow! So beautiful! Hard to believe it’s only $650k! Then again I live in California. 🙁 Thanks for posting! It’s an amazing house! ✌🏻🙂✌🏻
Gorgeous house that I would LOVE to own, but that basement would scare the bejesus out of me! 😳😱
What’s the weird camera fuzzy there at the top of the stairs, looks like a visitor ? Beautiful home!
This is is an absolutely stunning masterpiece! If I could only win the lottery! Thanks for the tour!!
I actually felt faint when seeing that formal entry way, lol. Stunning.
I'm drooling over this house!!! OMG! GORGEOUS doesn't even begin to describe it!!!
Amazing Victorian home! Glad you pointed out the painted trim on the second floor. A lot of people don’t know they did paint the trim in those days. I love the 1910 kitchen and bathrooms. I live in a Victorian home built in 1910. It’s a beautiful home with pocket doors, large foyer, ect.., but unfortunately the original 1910 kitchen was completely remodeled in the 60’s, and the only original 1910 bathroom part left is the floor tile. My home is in a historic district and quite a few homes in my neighborhood still have the old gasolier fixtures. Mine fortunately still has the original 1910 light fixtures in the foyer, living room, upper hallway and a few of the bedrooms. I would not change anything about the 1910 kitchen in that house. Nothing wrong with those countertops and cabinets. The current owners clearly put a large sum of money into the preservation of that home.
Glad to see the traditional hunter green color on the patio furniture; always beautiful and classic with brick.
That house is so beautiful hopefully somebody bought it and will enjoy it and keep it beautiful as long as they can and never let it be abandoned like a lot of the old houses that are bended that are so beautifully made like Victorian houses this one is beautiful thanks for sharing that with us
Sooooooo many furnishings I’d LOVE to buy off of them if I were to buy that house. I’m gobsmacked how gorgeous that place is. Seriously, the only thing it needs is new kitchen countertops. Utter perfection otherwise. I’m drooling and dreaming. 🤤🥰
It is an excellent house, it has a lot of character and personality. I am really impressed by the magnificent restoration work. Thanks for showing this wonder.
I just love it! It would be so cool to have it. I do dollhouses and would love to build one like it.
We lived in a Victorian and the steeple (turret) was my room. It had a small door that lead to a different area of the house like secret apartment with back stairs. The walls were all mahogany! so many hidden places too. The details stunning like this
It's a beauty! Even the brick walls in the basement were pretty. I admired the furnishings and antiques. Thx for the tour!
Just the baby carriage in the front parlor - I could die for !!! 🤗
Every room is beautiful! If that were my home I would never go anywhere! And the backyard is a dream 😍
As someone who has a 1905 Victorian with Classic Revival features, this is fantastic inspiration!
Wow, wow, wow!!! What a stunner!!! Amazing that's its been kept in its original state, absolutely beautiful!!
Love all the beautiful woods used in the home. Goorgeous! But pocket doors are my favorite thing!Gorgeous! All I can say is wow, wow, wow! I love old homes, every detail, perfection! Beautiful reno❣
This house is very beautiful, a real showpiece. At the same time, it's also very formal and intimidating. I couldn't imagine raising children there.
This family raised three there!
I live in Wisconsin and we have a street called Cass St. and it has several houses that are identical to this one. They are truly beautiful and I wish so bad one of them were mine.
That’s so beautiful,it’s amazing,what a lot of work to get it back to the original state ,the architecture is mind blowing
I'm glad you sorted out that 'Queen Anne Victorian' thing. That never made sense to me.
I loved the look on that cats face when he looked up as if to say "what?"
That is a very well done house.
Wonder if the kitty comes with the house?
I really love it when you explain the different styles of architecture and also interior designs!
I'm so glad the owners have done a great job
Prayers that this lovely creature is sold to a *conscious, kind, high aesthetics - person(s). Healthy and fresh vibe to the place------------------------------------------- You're a lovely hostess, by the way. Much thanks.
Thank you for the Queen Anne explanation, you were right, I was very confused!!!
I am thrilled to see this home! Absolutely beautiful! I watched twice to be sure I saw all of the lovely mantels and take in their beauty!
You had me at sun porch and turret. Oh, I had that secretary desk you see upstairs. Oh! A balcony! Sleeping porch?! Love it all.
I love Everything about this house, furnishings, decor!! 😍. And the beautiful grounds, court yard & carriage house ❤️. My dream home
This house literally gives me charmed vibes like it lowkey looks like house from the show I love it
