What a 1950's Bargain (or is it?)

Not having been born (or even a twinkle in my Mother’s eye) in the 1950’s, I’m not sure if this is a good price or not, but it seems phenomenal to me these days. I was particularly interested in the front of the house and 1950’s landscaping! It’s amazingly difficult to find any (if you have any sources, I’d be thrilled!)

The interior photos are fantastic (I have a few more) and I could post interior 50’s photos forever.

Speaking of which we’re redecorating – we’re going to rehang all of our pictures. We have a very “arty” look to the house (definately not really 50’s) but we try to stay fairly close to the period.
