A while back, I was fortunate enough to have been given an old real estate photo album of the house and property where I was born and raised. Many many thanks to those who got it into my hands for this project!
This was a realtor’s book showing the house and grounds that my parents bought in the early 1950s.
The photos are from the 1930s, and we assume the people in the photos may have been the original owners of the estate.

Compare these backyard views to the last 3 photos in the series above, to see the effects of the major renovation in 1952.
The "Redwood" House was built in about 1965-66, I think. It was on the same estate grounds as the main house.
We moved into it, and rented the "Stone" House to a family, whose dad was in the Canadian Armed Forces, and served at nearby Ft. Custer in Augusta, MI.
We moved out of the Redwood House in 1969, and went to Florida.
So happy to see these photos. We currently live in your old house at 7321 Pinebrook. I would be happy to send you some pictures of the house as it is today. Let me know where to send.
