I absolutely love old, historic houses. Not all of them, obviously, but the ones with character, charm, and owners who are willing to preserve them. I love the gorgeous brickwork, slopped roofs and decorative chimneys. The houses that are masterpieces from all sides and have withstood the test of time. I hate driving through newly built neighborhoods because every house looks exactly the same, the entire front of the house consists of the garage, they have no lawns and because precious farm and woodland had to be destroyed for these monstrosities to exist. I really wish that more builders would draw from historic architecture, (I'd love to see a second Tudor revival), where homes become works of art and work with the natural world around them.
