It's a teardown, a 1951 rancher on Wildwood about 2,300 square feet over a full basement. The last owners bought it in 1977 and I'd guess they lived there until the end. I went to the estate sale to look at the house. Architecture tourists do this sort of thing when we can.
It's a very livable house but they don't build them like this now. And you don't update ranchers in this neighborhood. You build 6,000 square-footers.
The master sink in taupe.
The other sink in blue.
The house has been demolished, summer of 2014.

I stayed at a B&B in Charlotte with similar bathrooms as this and the bathrooms were all in good working order, they don't make things like they used to.
ReplyDeleteThe sinks are charming and I hope someone has the sense to salvage them. I fear not, though.
ReplyDeleteNever seen this type of sink. Hope they will go into another home.

That's a really good description of the vibe of an estate sale. Oddly, I recently researching Pre-War and other vintage sinks, and this one looks like a Crane "Drexel" — http://bit.ly/1iEOG6g
