For a long time, the neighbors could only stand and watch as this incredible house in York, Pennsylvania, rotted away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walls, doors, windows \u2013 everything crumbled, and it looked like it could collapse at any time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The house was built back in 1887 and is a magnificent example of Queen Anne-style architecture. It\u2019s named after Queen Anne, who ruled England in the early 18th century. Her name is associated with a sense of the old-world elegance, extravagance, and ornate details. Today, the style is quite iconic, and these houses are often asymmetrical, with highly ornamented facades and more than one story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and loads of intricate brick details, this particular house on 505 Linden Ave in York, PA, was truly special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But unfortunately, no one managed to keep it under supervision; the owners let it fall into disrepair. Fortunately, however, one person saw the potential and value of restoring its architectural history\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out this makeover below and see how beautiful it is today:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s hard to believe, right? The 2,879-square-foot house looks completely different!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The whole building has been carefully restored and is painted with inviting shades of olive green, terracotta red, and gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the house went on sale and its pictures went viral, people were clamoring to learn more about the beautiful house. At the time it was licensed to be a bed and breakfast but it could also be used as a family home; like it was perhaps originally intended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today it is no longer for sale, but according to Trulia<\/a> it\u2019s valued at $332,900.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
