THE LONGMIRE HOUSE, MYSTERY SOLVED
THE LONGVIEW HOUSE
Please don't ask me why I called it the Longmire house,
because I really have no vailid reasons. When I bought the house on
eBay it was listed as "Rare Longmire House". I knew the lady that
was selling it and emailed to ask why it was called that. She didn't
know either, the dollhouse had been her mother's and mother had always refered
to it as "The Longmire House"!!
The house was not the best example, but this
house is so rare, I had to take what I could get, hoping to upgrade later. Well I finally got that upgrade. The house was MIB and I found out that it was a Sears exclusive and that it was calle The Longview House. The pics have changed to show the new house. The house is metal, but it is not glossy and shiny like all the other
Marx houses, it is dull and rough feeling. The siding is vertical rather
than horizontal and the roof is an unusual colour, as is the patio floor.
Other than that, it is basically like any other Marx Colonial.
While the Longview House has an outside that
looks like one of the updated Colonials that used the French Provincial
Furniture, one look at the inside tells a different story.
As you can see from the above picture, the interior styiling of the house indicates that this house used the traditional style of furniture. Click the house below to see the furniture.
