This house looked like it was about to fall into itself until one family stepped in
Over 130 years old, this house, built in 1887, was once so dilapidated it was deemed unsafe to enter. For decades, no one dared to buy it—until locals Jim and Jean Leaman saw its potential. Captivated by its classic architecture, the retired couple decided to restore the crumbling structure.
After five years of relentless effort, they transformed the ruin into a stunning home. The result is almost magical, especially inside, where it feels like stepping into a Harry Potter movie. Vibrant stained glass illuminates floors crafted from five types of wood, while each of the five uniquely decorated bedrooms on the second floor offers its own charm.
