If you are currently in the market for purchasing a new home but do not want the typical “cookie cutter” house, look into Everett, WA real estate. The typical houses in the north part of Everett, WA were mainly built in the early 1900’s and feature all of the glorious charm of the beginning decades of that century.
Nowhere else will you find such charming attributes in homes built in today’s time. Even the best and most expensive custom built homes lack the charm and solid building structures of homes built in earlier days. Everett, WA real estate offers beautiful homes with custom built-in cabinets, incredible crown moldings in all rooms and solid hand carved panel doors made by hours of hard earned labor, most likely from wood bought from the Everett wood mills in the early 1900’s.
The prominent homes in early Everett, WA real estate featured a “four corner” style home. These homes were typically three to four main stories of livable space from the basement to the attic, although, those two floors were not usually used like they are today; for playrooms and game rooms, for example. Kitchen sizes were not usually very large, but normally had very large dining rooms and living rooms or parlors, as they were called back then, for hosting lavish parties and get togethers.
If you have the opportunity to tour a home with the original floor plan in tact, you will most likely notice a small room right off of the kitchen. These were the maid’s quarters that helped with the cooking, cleaning and childcare for the Lady of the House.
If you desire a home full of charm and with a “Norman Rockwell” feel, looking into Everett, WA real estate. The possibilities are endless in the historic houses you will find in this area.
