My house is historic and terra cotta pipe still in places.

Cookie cutter homes on tiny lots, some McMansions and a sea of terra cotta tile roofs.North of Sheldon Rd on the West side isn't Elk Grove anymore, and neighborhood quality quickly drops from B to C then to D in a matter of blocks.

@Adam CraigPerhaps the front door could be a terra cotta/ rust color that would tie in with the color of the brick foundation?

I like Sand Castle and Terracotta Sand from Dunn and Edwards.

original electric  maybe 60 to 100 amp , not enough for today , old steam boiler  ,  galvanized plumbing ,  terra cotta sewer pipe clogged with roots , 3 layers of shingles on a 12/12 pitch roof ,  termites , Lead paint , no fire escapes ,  the list goes on .     

We still used our standard "magnolia spray" for the living room and entrance, but painted the end wall of the living room in "terra cotta" as an accent wall {reds ... four bloody coats}.  

Hey all,I know the countertops question has been asked quite a bit, but wanted to get some answers from people who have installed butcher block (Ikea specifically) in their rentals and how they have held up.My kitchen will have terracotta tiles, so I'm thinking white cabinets with a light, neutral colour for the walls.

A corner of the crock on top of the chimney is broken (it is not a danger but will be replaced in a month or so) and some terra cotta has probably spalled off of that onto the roof.
