It looks as if it is ready for the next tour group to pass through.

Nothing about it looks very comfortable ...

I don't like anything about it. None of it is to my taste. I agree with bunnyhug It doesn't look comfortable.

I think it looks like one of those houses on the "Ghost Haunts This" shows. And that trying to keep the place warm would be really expensive.

I like it! I wonder if any of the furniture or artwork comes with the house?
If I owned it, I would definitely reach out to Jon and Kristina from HGTV to get their take on it.

I think it is absolutely haunted.

I think it's cool but think the current decor isn't doing it any favors.

I love it BUT not great to live in, I wouldn't think!
We looked at a couple very old homes in PA (not this old, one was from 1740 something and another from 1780 something) and while I LOVED the old home feel and history, the bedrooms were tiny. Only enough room for a double mattress at best, no dresser, no closet. Maybe one bedside table. Low ceilings, tiny steep stairs. Which made them affordable for us but also not too desirable!

It looks like a museum.
I like a couple of the antique cupboards.

That's so cool. Looking at the pictures I really just thought it was a historic place until I saw a modern refrigerator. I'm shocked that it's up to code enough to live in.

Oh, heck yes. I'd buy that in a heartbeat.
I wouldn't personally feel the need to have so much of the furnishings & decor be antiques, though. I prefer an old house to be filled with items from a more balanced range of time periods.
I do like how it looks, now, but more as something to look at rather than to live in. I'd go for simple modern furnishings for things that would take more use and abuse---sofa, beds, kitchen table, and then older items for things like occasional tables, decor, hutches, etc. But again, I wouldn't want to try to for within a certain time range when buying items.
