Interior before-Parlor

This room was originally the parlor. It is on the Northeast corner of the house directly right of the front door. This room had the most damage from neglect. The flashing on the front porch had failed and the mortar failed causing water to be able to penetrate the wythe masonry. Due to freeze thaw cycles and being closed in the summer the conrete coat placed on the brick cracked, some bricks spalled, and the wallpaper grew a large amount of mold.

 This was after the room was sealed and the loose debris removed.

The large trim was nailed into 2x4s installed in the structural brick. They had rotted in the wall and I don't know if the trim can be saved as a portion of it had rotted.

The windows were all replaced with insulating windows and all have to be reinstalled due to improper installation. This window is very loose and the trim can't be removed without the whole frame coming out.

 This is the doorway directly to the right in the hall. It is a shame the original pocket doors aren't there.

 This is the North wall. There are two strips of lathe under the windows which is behind a cavity formed by the limestone window sill.

The West side of the room that leads to the living area. The door used to open the other way and was replaced with the same hollow core door type...
