In what year was your residence built ?

Mine was built in 1964 ~~~ :)

My house was built almost four years ago. Construction began on it in September of 2000 and the escrow closed in February of 2001. Five days later, we moved into it. :)

Not too sure but someone wrote their name on a beam in the basement with the date 1915-I'm assuming the house is older than that. Our livingroom was once the local phone company.

The 1950's.

My house was built in 1996.

Sometime in the '60s, I think.

Early '60s

Ours was built in 1981.

1910,  I once went and looked up everyone who had owned the house before me.

Best we can figure, it was built in the mid 60's.  I live in Lyndon St, next to Baines St and Johnson St and intersected by Ladybird St. 

Seems a tad more than coincidence!  ::) :o

For Real?  That's cool. :)

My house was built during the 50s by the local council. Interestingly, my road is called Normandy Way named after the Normandy Landings. The American soldiers had a camp near where our house is built and they marched down the road to the river Tamar where they jumped onboard boats to Normandy (hence the name).

OUr house was built in 1929. 

My gaff is celebrating its 71st birthday this year...prior to which, there was nothing but a huge orchard - there is still a great big line of cherry trees running along the backs of the gardens...

...the cherries themselves are delish, assuming the birds haven't scoffed 'em all first...!!

I'm jealous!  :(

My grandparents used to have a big cherry tree in their back yard and had to cover it every year because of the birds. Whoever said "eat like a bird" never saw these. Half of them couldn't fly because they would stuff themselves with the cherrys.

Early 1930s I think. With the fake fireplace. ::)

I saw a spider viewing this thread not too long ago, so I figured I'd bump it up for those who haven't seen it

I've lived in a townhouse (in two separate units, but the same complex) since April 1996.

I'm not sure exactly when it was built (knowing me, of course I've asked that before, lol), but according to longtime residents of this area, it was sometime around the early 1970s. I do know that it used to be an orchard before that, as was alot of suburban San Jose in the old days.

I have no idea, but it looks pretty old.

The house I used to live in for some 20 years was built in 1977.  No idea when the one I live in now was built

Looking at the style of the house & the way it was built, I'd say 1960s.

Last several houses:
- 1923
- 1980s
- 1970s

In the mid-1960s, I believe.

my old house...was a barn once.
i'm almost certain it's 80 years old.

1930's which is great, the last one was built in the 1990's.

(Yeah I'm quoting from a 2 1/2 year old reply - so sue me)  ;D

My parents have a Mulberry tree in their yard, and the birds would stuff themselves silly, then as they pooed on our cars in rainbow colors - white with little splotches of purple.  Almost pretty.  Almost.

Our apartments were apparently built in 1986.

My parents home was built as a log cabin and modified over the years, I don't know how old it actually is, but my grandfather bought it off another distant relative in the 1950s, and it's been in the family since.

The house I live in at the moment was built in the mid-50s.  We have the paperwork relating to the original purchase of the land.

The apartment complex in which I reside was built in phases.

The 1 bedroom units were built in the early '50s.
The 2 bedroom 4-plex built in the early '70s.
The 2 bedroom units which were formerly the clubhouse were done in the late '70s.
The most recent, the 10-plex, where I live, were built in 1985.

There are to be a few more units built in the next year or so.

I think our house was built around 1986 making it about 21 years old. It's a cozy home in a peaceful neighborhood.

My apartment building was the original Armstrong Industries building.  Not quite sure how old it is. :-\\

We built ours in 2000 and the lake house in 2005 and hubby's itching to build another one....I'm not so keen on the idea, though ::)

The house I'm living in now - just a guess - was built in the late '60s, early '70s. It's a very typical ranch style house - 1 story.

Previous homes I've lived in:

From 1982-1994
Built in 1973 (Seeno Home)

From 1994-2001
Built in 1994 (Warmington Homes)

From 2001-2003
Built in 2001 (Willian Lyon Homes)

From 2003-2005
Built in 2002 (not sure who made it)

From 2005-2006
Built in 2002 (not sure who made it)

our house is around 80 years old (at least that is what they told us when we bought it)....to me, it's not old enough! ;)

My dad's last place of residency is about 105 years old.

Thank you! :)

My apartment was/is one of a series that was built in 1956, so it's already over 50 years old.

;D  I sure hope so Henk

Our house was built in 1925.  :o

A good barometer of when houses were built are often certain features. For instance, many houses built before the '50s didn't have showers, and attached garages started in the mid-late '70s.

Ironically, the place I'm living in now is probably one of the older places of all the other 10 I've lived in during my life (as I said, we moved around alot, particularly when I was younger). Most were probably built in the 1970s, and the townhouse complex I lived in in 1994 was built in the late '80s according to people I talked to about it then (so it was still almost brand new then).

I live in a condo that was built in 2000.

The house I grew up in was built in the early 60's - a typical ranch house of that time.  I've also lived in a few apartments.

I found out just last week that the house I'm living in actually partially burned down in 1984 (the kitchen and garage). But, I believe the house is still about 40 years old.
