A Heart For Old Homes

Meet Claire

I believe old homes aren't just structures—they're time capsules of craftsmanship, character, and stories waiting to be preserved for the next generation. As a Twin Cities real estate agent specializing in historic and character-filled properties, I have a simple philosophy: every vintage detail, from original hardwood floors to hand-carved woodwork, deserves to be celebrated, not covered up. These old homes have been with us for 100+ years and I coach clients on how to keep them in pristine shape to last hundreds more.
