I love cottages. So as soon as I saw this illustration I immediately wanted to make it available here on this blog. It comes from a newspaper published in the year 1903. There are trees, a hedge,I think a fence...and a dapper gentleman standing in front. The description that accompanied this image said that it had six bedrooms (so it is a Large cottage...of course, the bedrooms were probably small too...I am currently typing this in a house that was built in 1907 and the bedrooms are tiny by today's standards).
The cost of the house and the lot it came on at the time...$5,500.
As usual, this image is in the public domain, because it was published before 1923...so you can use it any way you want!
