Bill & Mary Chatigny purchased this tired 1884 Victorian in 1993 and began the restoration in spring of ‘94. The summer of 1997 was spent re-building the front porch and enclosing it. Although Victorian homes generally did not have enclosed entries, we felt it was necessary because of street noise and the need to have a warmer front hall. Bill custom built the doors, windows, most moldings, as well as the stair spindles, posts, and finials.
