Next: After: True Edwardian Style
Built in 1909, this home has interesting features, such as an ornate oak mantle and unique mother-of-pearl tiles on the fireplace. Edison and Brigida have made the wrong color choices in this family room twice already; the current red and yellow don't work with the Edwardian style of the home. They want a warm, welcoming feel and colors that are true to the historical style of the home.
