    That first photo looks like it could have been a scene from Dr. Zhivago. :-)

    The bird house is so cute! Love all pictures but that first one is really fantastic, and it is more splendid because the snow, your picture is perfect!

    Beautiful houses. The abandoned home has kind of a ramshackle charm to it.

    I have a feeling that the inhabitants of No. 56 win the cosiness prize.

    OK, I think you've got the range of housing options there. Each is charming in its own way.

    That quote is fantastic, and that abandoned house somehow the most compelling of all. Happy 2014, hope it's off to a great start!

    they are all three beautiful homes. i would prefer the second one to live in if it was fixed up. the others are gorgeous but way way to big for me.. the Victorian is my favorite for looks

    A nice selection of homes, well done. I like the abandoned one best although it may leak in the rain and be cold in the winter.

    I really like the first two; the rest not so much. But any house can be made into a home with the right ingredients. Lovely photos. The bird house is very cute. Wonder what "56" means.

    That's quite the range of homes. The first two are beautiful,but too big for my taste.

    The first two look so pretty with the snow! I'm not sure if any birds can fit in the birdhouse though. :)

    The top two are very nice but there looks to be an awful lot of dusting and window-cleaning to be done. A charming selection.
