Welcome to the official page for OldHousePage.com, a new blog focusing on old houses and the people who love them!
Chiara Evelyn Rossi It drives me crazy when the owners of these places just let them rot! Stop building new houses and wasting materials and fix up the old! Old houses were built to last.

I love old houses
for their smells,
their must and dust and mildew
and for what they've been
to people I will never know.
The character
of calked-up cracks
means more to me than plastered
walls and pretty paper,
walls that play the neighbor's music
when the radio I love
has gone to sleep.
The faces of old
are like old houses
every... line's a highway
from the past.
And so I love old houses
and the faces that sit rocking
on their sagging porches. ~
