How old is your house?

[Kitty 34]

Our house was built in the early 40's so over 60 years old. I feel like we're always "fixing" it, too!

Hi Kitty

Our house is 22 years old. We had it built and it is for sale.
Anyone interested?

Mine was built in 1912 so that's what, 97 years old? We're getting ready to sell this spring too.

My house was built in '80.... 1780! So I am quite familiar with the 'always fixing it' theme

When I saw the 1780 I knew you had to be from my neck of the woods.

Only if it's in a warm climate and I don't think yours is!!

nearly 7 years old. We bought it new.

 

[Golf4food]

Currently: 1959

In a few months: 2009 (under construction now)

We decided we had enough of being in a house that is older than we are (and almost older than our combined ages).

It was built in 1924.

It's gorgeous but dang, every little project turns into one bigger because of the age of the house.

1911, always under construction.

DH built our 5 BR home 30 yrs ago when we were busy raising our 4 children. It's as comfy now as it was then, but way too big for 2 of us and now needing more and more attention.

But they knew how to build things back then... you are lucky.

our townhome was built 1958 and the previous owners were not kind to it.

we did 13 windows for $13K all new elec for about $6K and some plumbing worth about $2K

MIkeeee

Our house will be 5 in August.

ours was built in 1963; but the house I grew up in was built in 1922. That was my favorite house-I can still drive by it and think "that's my house" and other people are just borrowing it. And my crazy parents have moved to Fla and built and 5000 sq. ft mammoth-with no kids to fill it

Mine was built around 1908 so it is 100 years old. I have lived here 30 years. It was purchased on land contract from the original owner! The nice thing is, in 30 years everything's been updated/redone; new windows, insulation, central air, etc. It is around 2100 sf for just youngest DS and me...and the dogs!
