The link below shows a home near mine. I always wondered what it looked like inside. Well, now that it's for sale, I can see that it's everything I thought it would be. And it's in one of the nicest historical districts in town. Pretty hefty price tag, though.

Check out the link:

What a beautiful home! I think I need to move up north! I just bought a home in California for more than twice that amount and it isn't nearly as nice.

I don't know Spokane prices, but I assume they are similar to Utah, so the price is probably on the high end. Love the interior, don't love the exterior paint colors--but that, like all paint, can be changed. Incredible woodwork.

It is so interesting to see the art glass window in the interior. It was on this forum that someone posted an old catalog page from a company that offered art glass windows in the 1920's. That window is on the page.

In my business of making custom rugs, I have a client in a Chicago suburb who also has that design in their living room and we used it as inspiration for a rug. I am tickled to see that window all over the country.

Love the woodwork and built-ins. The exterior is screaming for some character, though.

In my neighborhood, that would be in the $500K range.

That house is awesome!! If it were in my neighborhood the price would be higher. That's a great price for such a home. Makes me wish I were your neighbor.

Here is a link to another home in a very prestigious part of town. This one seems to be more in the price range that everyone is talking about:

All I can say is Oh my God! Here in College Park, GA new bungalow homes are being built everywhere. I have yet to see one with authentic woodwork in the older homes though. Seems like more of the details were invested in Northern areas. But what do I know - I'm 1 year old at this.

What great houses! A coworker's daughter moved to Spokane a year ago and loves it. She and her DH recently bought an older bungalow (a long-time rental) and are in the throes of rehabbing. I'm not sure where they are exactly, but he's a prof at Gonzaga and can bike top work. It seems like a great place to live.

That second house is amazing. Even more amazing is that the real estate taxes are half what I pay for about the same size house! (I actually have a little less square footage)
