Connecticut, USA - 'Robin Warner's first impression of the 1908 Foursquare she now calls home wasn't exactly love at first sight. Driving past the Nob Hill house, she had dismissed the boxy, Marblecrete-clad structure as "a 1960s apartment building."

In the basement, Carol again took cues from Robin's salvage finds. The family room boasts a pair of French doors that Robin scored from a former neighbor years earlier. Carol also used a salvaged leaded glass window to lighten up the staircase, but unarguably the best salvage score in the basement is the Ming green double-drainboard sink that's the focal point of the new laundry room, which Robin discovered while browsing online,' writes Claire Martin from the Old House Journal.
