History Reclaimed in the Coronado Historic District
What do you do when you have an impeccable little home in a friendly, blossoming historic neighborhood in the Coronado Historic District, and your home has everything going for it… brick walls, hardwood floors, claw-foot tub, except it doesn’t have a fireplace? Well the Deermers, the owners of this charming house at 1342 East Almeria Rd, shopped Wisconsin antique dealers to uncover this amazing faux hearth, fashioned from the tin ceiling of a Gay ’90s saloon.
The antique tub came from this same Wisconsin antique dealer. You can see photos of the tub and all the other wonderful touches the Deermers put into their home during their recent renovation and remodel at the custom site we built for this house.
We just listed this home for sale last weekend, and as we always do, we built the website to introduce the home to prospective buyers and to help those buyers remember all the special features the house offers. Even if you’re not in the market to buy the house, you should take a look at its website, if for no other reason than to get some great remodeling ideas. You’ll get to look at some before photos, and afters. For example, just take a peek at what the Deermers did to transform their bathroom from a tawdry, marble eyesore into this delightfully comfortable room with an historic sensibility.
Pictures certainly do tell a story, but sometimes a picture alone isn’t enough. For instance, here’s a photo of the bathroom ceiling:
But how did they get a tin ceiling into a 1950 Ranch? Well, there’s a story behind that. Most homes, especially historic homes and custom homes and luxury homes, have a story. And who better to tell that story than the owners? So, beginning with this listing, BloodhoundRealty.com agents will include a video on the home’s custom website, which interviews the owners for stories about the house. Where did that tin ceiling come from? Go to the Video Tour link to find out!
