  • This was renewed about 10 years ago. It took quite long to find somebody who though he could pull it off. - Itkovian

    That's my grandma's house ;-)

    I am not sure how old it is, but I think it might be close to 100 years old. I think it was her parent's house, anyway, her mom slept on the third floor, iirc (which is the floor above the top one pictured here).

    Her parents bought the house in 1934 and she lives in it since then. The house has 7 floors!
    It was not your grandma's mom who slept on the third floor but your mom!!!

    @dorsur I double-checked, and apparently she moved down one floor when you were born. Anyway, the house was built somewhere between 1890 and 1899.
