The Lavender Ghost: a Hudson, Valley Victorian Home

March 3, 2020 By Maria Leave a Comment

Amy and her husband, Jim, were on the search for a weekend home. Jim did not want a home that had an old and Victorian look. At first, Amy complied, but their broker persuaded them to look at an old Victorian home. Jim fell in love with the home and the style. The home had a good balance between Victorian and modern features. The couple began working on the home full time and renovating it. The couple eventually made the home their primary residence. Amy loves the combination of modern and vintage features. Amy’s favorite room is the living room because of its’ excellent lighting and open space. Every piece of furniture within the home has a story attached to it and meaning, and this gives the home a unique look and style. The lavender exterior gives the home a unique touch and it disappears in the sky. The couple is still working on the home. Their strategy is to stabilize the classic features of the home and to update anything that is broken and dated.

Key Takeaways:

  • Amy’s husband did not want to look for a Victorian home but was blown away when their broker showed them a lovely one.
  • Jim and Amy began working on the home full time and they have decided to make it their primary home.
  • Amy loves the living room area because it has excellent lighting and full of open space.
