Hey there! I’m Giovannina, The Queen of Vintage! I live in an almost 100 year old house in a neighborhood that was orange groves in 1910 and platted out as a community by 1920.
I’ve lived here for 20 years so far. Coming in at a spacious 1425 square feet, this 1920s Craftsman bungalow has seen some renovations over the near century and has served our family of 5 plus cat well. We had plans to renovate it and have our older two offspring live here during their college years rather than pay for dorms at college while we build a similar home on our second lot, buuuuuuuttttt…. Well, plans can and do change. In any case, enjoy the process of the house becoming what it’s meant to be!
The plan was to build a similar era-style home on what is currently our side yard, move in there, and THEN finally renovate our original home.
Here’s a (really old) panoramic photo of our entire property for reference:
