I'm sorry it didn't work out. I had hopes that my grandfather's farm would stay in the family, and then my parents house, but neither were to be, and I certainly wasn't in a position to buy either one. It's sad when a house passes from the family. I hope that someone buys it who will love it. You know, if the height markings are actually on the door jamb and not on the wall next to it, you might consider asking the realtor to have a carpenter rip it out for you and replace it with appropriate molding/wood? It's not the same as owning the house but having a literal piece of it/its history might be cool.
