Replace or Repair for Antique Home

Benjamin Leung

Hey Everyone,

I am currently under contract for a 1925 florida build with still some original georgian windows. The windows need to be taken care of no matter what as some have panes that were replaced with plastic or have gaps between the frame and glass. I read a post it is highly desirable to keep the older style of windows and just have it repaired. Ideally I just want what will hold/increase the most value for resale. 

This is part of a larger renovation where I have found the same georgian style doors, hardwood floors and even classic glass doorknobs. Where does everyone draw the line on renovations or replacing items?
