My New House in Atlanta

On September 26th, I finally closed on my new home in Atlanta's historic Old Fourth Ward. The house is about 100 years old, though you'd never know it by looking at it. Since the original deed information was lost in a fire at the courthouse, we are unsure of its exact age. However, I have been told it was built in 1903, 1907, 1910, or 1920.

The previous owners did a complete renovation of the house in 2002. All interior walls were replaced, the plumbing and electrical were updated, two new bathrooms were added, and the kitchen was totally replaced. I was told that the original house was rather primitive, and had only one bathroom that lacked a sink... the old lady that lived there brushed her teeth in the bathtub!
