Curious To Explore A Snapshot Of Your Home’s History?

A simple but beautiful way to capture the story of your home when only a few records survive.

Not every property has a long paper trail. Some homes reveal only a glimpse of their past. The Snapshot House History is designed for these cases, offering a concise, display-worthy record of what has been uncovered.

To really bring the records to life, every Snapshot House History comes with an A4 Wall Art. Thoughtfully written and professionally printed, this presentation option combines meticulous research with narrative storytelling to really bring your home’s history to life.

Perfect as a gift, or as the first step in exploring the history of your own home.

    Customer reviews

    Oak and Willow did a wonderful job of gathering as much information as possible, even with limited records to work from. The final result looks lovely, and their communication throughout the process was excellent. Everything was delivered quickly and with great care – highly recommended!
