From YouTube: Englewood Moments in History: Historic Homes
Description
In this #tbt we kick it back to a time where do-it-yourself homes were prominent in the Englewood community. Residents could select the cost and style of their house to best fit their needs, and materials would be shipped directly to them! The best part is these custom houses could grow with the family, additions could be ordered and built onto these homes to provide extra rooms.
Would you order a do-it-yourself home?
Thank you Englewood Historic Preservation Society 501c3 for your help with this video!

The
made
to
order
houses
didn't
have
the
amenities
the
refurbished
houses
have
today.
It
wasn't
until
1917
that
manufacturers
offered
the
option
of
an
indoor
bathroom.
Some
of
these
structures
still
stand
in
inglewood
and
the
homeowners
may
be
completely
unaware
put
together
piece
by
piece
and
brick
by
brick.
These
century
old
homes
offer
a
window
into
the
historic
neighborhoods
that
were
built
from
the
ground
up
right
here
in
what
we
call
inglewood
colorado.
