Bold of you to assume I own a house

Our US one when we lived there: 1960s

Our Danish one now: 17... 50s? 60s? It's hard to know

some of you have ghosts in your houses

2024

New building code for rentals stipulates one room must be capable of cooling to 26c or lower. This building was built to that code.

So we have AC. It's fantastic.

My house was built as a summer cabin 1935. Then someone added a 2nd floor on top of it 1970. It then got winter isolated (for year round living) in 2006.

In sweden, so it can be pretty cold here

The one I live in now was built in the 1940s and expanded in the 2000s. The one my parents own that I grew up in partially was built in 1844.

Unclear, but somewhere between 1865 and 1875, which makes it right around half the age of my parents' house

1890 here as well. I love it, it's nestled in the woods and built into the hillside so these massive retaining walls surround the first story. With all the trees and shade and basically being underground, this makes the first floor naturally cool. I've gone whole summers without AC. What's also interesting is there's a door on the second floor landing that goes right out into the hillside. There's like a 2 foot wide platform and then the hill. Not much up there other than a steep overgrown mountain though.

Another thing I love is being able to see the river from my front stoop. I'm still in city limits of Pittsburgh though, so I can easily walk or bike down to more of the city type stuff. Or I can bop across a bridge to a couple other towns.

I'll definitely spend my life here, as I'm slowly remodeling the place. But of course, a house this old comes with its own slew of problems. I try to tackle as much as I can myself tho.

1861 it's sweet except for when it's not

2015

Somewhere between 1925 and 1932 depending on which paper you want to read.

The other house built in 1992

1981

1926

In the 1940s or 50s. My family has owned it since the 60s.

Somewhere around 1998-1999. Which means right now we’re going through replacing everything (roof, siding, HVAC, god knows what else). It’s fun!

1955

My apartment building turns 100 this year.

1954

since i moved back with my parents, my house was built in 1993. before that i was living in an apartment that was built in 2021.

We just celebrated 28 years of this development, so 1997. We live here since 2002.

1880, right after the Great Fire

1910!

I bought it in 2022. It's tiny but mine lol

1962

1992 - and it has all of the luxuries that 1992 had to offer in a house (oak everything! almost no right corners! shiny brass fixtures!)

1850

2006

1929. Not particularly old by European standards, but one slightly unusual feature is that it still has its original roof.

1985. I was also born 1985.

the house i grew up in was built in 1800 (it was a duplex) and honestly it was the creepiest house i ever lived in. it had the old style stone cellars and wooden steps and i always used to have to put a chair in front of the cellar door cause whenever i tried to close it i honest to god felt a force making it hard to shut. and i'm absolutely certain that i woke up in the middle of the night and looked down the stairs and saw two people in period clothes just standing there and it's far too real to have been a dream.

i lived in this town so mostly all of the houses were built for the mill by the family who owned it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitinsville,_Massachusetts

House I used to own was built in 1958, but the house I'm currently renting an apartment in was built in 1890. The apartment itself was added in 2020, and I'm it's first tenant.

1910. It's got old-school marble and stone work. Classy AF.

1927...

1870

2006

2020 is when it was finished :3

1976

Also my birth year.

Built by the owner of a greenhouse in a suburb of the city where you could prohibit the sale of land to blacks. They ended up buying 2 more lots and building two more houses. USA, Michigan. Sadly, the title still states that the property cannot be sold to a black or mixed race. Its no longer legal, but the title says it. Other than that, its built well. Almost all the stuff done to the house after the 70s is garbage. Ie. Vinyl siding, replacement windows, counters, plumbing.

Early 70s

\2022. Apartment building. 95,5 m², 25 m² balcony. We enjoy it.

2021 from a small local home builder. Much better quality (even for a COVID build) than the Oakwood garbage that’s in the rest of the neighborhood and much better insulated than an older home.

1906 or earlier from what I can see from historical rental listings in our local newspaper

Before - 1932, now 1995.

The house I’m renting and the house I own are both around 1930, which is considered modern in the UK. The house I grew up in is about 1800.
