1906 Rusticated Concrete House

Post by Kashka-Kat »

AKA "decorative rockface," which sounds so much more fancy-schmancy than just plain old concrete block house. :)

The upper story and porch are wood - someday will take a picture of the sides so you can see more of the concrete and maybe tell me how to maintain it - still have not arrived at any conclusion about sealer vs. concrete stain vs. limewash vs. something I haven't heard of yet. Something eventually should be done because the concrete is eroding in places where rain/wind hit it.... just know that I do not want to paint it.

Anyhoo... been following yall around since OHW. Hope we can stay here a while! Thnx to those who make it happen. Cathy in WI

Welcome. That's a sweet house, and somebody is a gardener.
