Elegant Decay

I went through this house the other day up in Louisiana, Pike County, MO. The owner has completely restored the outside, though the inside is still in a state of elegant decay. I sort of love it….though of course, it needs to be finished.

When I was a young boy and when we stayed at our farm over the weekend, my parents took us to the Catholic Church up in Louisiana. I was always a little embarrassed…after staying at the farm, we looked a little homely for church. Well, we used to walk past this house and it was covered with ivy and all of the shutters closed. The exterior is beautiful now.  The owner has given a gift to Louisiana of resurrecting an eyesore. Now it is your turn to turn the interior into a showplace! It is for sale…contact me if you are interested.
