    I LOVE YOU ❤️ YOU SUPPORTED AND RESPECTED THE ANTIQUITY OF LOS ANGELES REGIONAL ARCHITECTURAL UNIQUENESS! WOW AWESOME JOB BRAVO BRAVO if the pictures were in black-and-white it would look like they were from the 1920s you did such an awesome job. Congratulations I wish they were more people like you that cared about our cultural historical architecture. ❤

    One thing you neglected to show was closet space in the bedrooms. Typically in homes of this era it seems that closets were an afterthought and you just didn’t get much storage space. The bedrooms are definitely big enough for armoires but you can’t beat a great walk-in

    It’s too bad that terrible 90’s kitchen wasn’t renovated as well. The $99 commodes also take away from the reno especially when time and money is spent on other fixtures like the lighting. The home is lovely otherwise, hopefully whomever purchases it has a lot of money aside for the kitchen renovation.

I left my 1949 cottage home in Pomona after restoring it and moved out of state to a brand new home. It just doesn't have the charm of my old home. I painted the walls in my house Alabaster white by Sherwin Williams too. It was lovely.

There is nothing quite like sitting on the living room sofa and seeing kitchen appliances. Open concept was okay in most of the 20th Century when the dining room and living room were partially or completely joined, but once they took the kitchen walls down, they lost me!

    Too bad that it is in Riverside. With regards to the cooktop in the kitchen; I am seeing more and more homes that have been "renovated" and some new builds that lack ventilation for the cooktop, especially one that uses gas. No hood and I presume that it is not a pop up down draft thing. In doing major work, were seismic risks mitigated?

Awful area then worse now as the Inland Empire is nothing but warehouses, slums and trucks. Yes, once upon a time up until WW2, the area was beautiful. Now, when I think of Riverside, I think of Riverside County and more specifically, Palm Springs. These days I live precisely 300 miles away in another state. Coming down the 15, hitting Barstow, it just gets uglier and uglier until Palm Springs or Coronado.

I like to go to Palm Springs for lunch and the Tramway, which is great. I think that you meant Corona. It’s still horse country but is built up. Highland is still horse property and such. San Bernardino City is really run down. BTW, We approved a study to secede from the state in the last election.
