Doors can be such interesting features. This is the front door of 245 N. Hawthorne Road in Winston-Salem. Very distinctive shape and construction (wide, too). Just the kind of front door a Tudor Revival should have. The whole house is gorgeous, as its $525,000 price suggests. It went on the market last week, and the owners accepted an offer four days later.
It’s a shame what’s happened to doors in most modern houses — bland, mass-produced, boring. This one is red on the outside, also distinctive. If you need a door for a historic house, interior or exterior, don’t settle for Lowe’s. Check out Architectural Salvage of Greensboro.
