Most buyers took one look at the dilapidated 1887 Victorian and kept walking—but not Jim and Jean Leaman. The retired couple saw past the rotting wood and precarious structure to the home’s hidden grandeur. Half a decade later, their leap of faith has resulted in one of the most stunning home transformations you’ll ever see.
Every inch of the house now tells a story of revival. Sunlight dances through meticulously restored stained glass, casting colorful patterns on floors woven from five different wood types. Upstairs, five uniquely designed bedrooms offer charm at every turn, while a cozy attic space invites creativity.
What was once deemed unsafe to enter is now a warm, livable work of art—proof that with enough passion, even the most neglected houses can find their happily ever after.
