Here are some pics to go with the previous post...
View from the rear forward into the Living Room, through what used to be a partition wall, builtin shelves/desk, and hidden brick chimney.
View from the same rear corner, sideways to where there's no longer a closet. Actually, the beam above and post in the center delineate what was probably once the rear wall of the house - everything to the right appears to have been added later.
Ceilings running side-to-side in the ex-Library part. New framing under the bathroom at the far-right.
Ceilings running to the front, with a mysterious box in the middle that I am guessing was a heat register when there was just a wood stove downstairs (later plastered into the ceiling).
From the front outside corner, toward the rear-middle.
Side wall, down to studs. Apparently no insulation in this room - have to fix that.
Exposed closet under the staircase, which had been walled in. Also the center-hall (still with a sheet of plastic across it for dust control) out to the front entry, which we re-opened by demolishing the closet someone put there.
In the center-call area, probably the oldest decoration we've uncovered. Seems to be a couple feet's worth of wainscotting below, and old wallpaper on plaster above. Was walled in to the back of the closet.
Top of the wainscot, with moulding/nosing.
Wallpaper detail.
A different border/trim on the wallpaper.
