Foundation. Stone and brick foundations from the 1880s move. A structural look at the foundation walls, the sill and the porch piers is standard on every Victorian we write.

Wiring, plumbing and the sewer. Knob-and-tube, galvanized pipe and a clay sewer line are the three questions. Ask for the invoices; the answers set the price.

Historic districts. Many Boulder Victorians sit in a district with exterior design review. Windows, siding and porch changes go through it; interiors do not.

Layout. Victorians were built as rooms, not open plans. Opening walls needs an engineer; most buyers keep the parlor and open the kitchen.

Insurance and windows. Some carriers price a 140-year-old home high. Original windows with storms are the district-approved way to a lower bill.

Tell us restored or project. A restored Boulder Victorian and one with original wiring are different budgets and different lenders.
