Brought Back to Life
A room-by-room, plank-by-plank record of restoring The Cady House — undertaken with patience, and a deep respect for what came before.
A Family Home Reclaimed
When two sisters became the owners of a family home that had fallen into disrepair, they faced a choice: let its story end or take on the enormous work of bringing it back to life. They chose restoration—preserving the character, craftsmanship, and memories held within The Cady House while preparing it for a new chapter.

The Work Continues
The Cady House remains a private family home and an active restoration project. For now, our attention is focused on preserving its historic character and carefully bringing each room back to life.
