Possibly my new town. :) We went to look at that house last night. Joe and I both really liked it. It's got A LOT of room inside. The backyard is small, but it's fenced in. It's in a nice neighborhood. It's QUIET. We were there over an hour. We heard birds. And our own voices. We saw 2 cars go by the whole time. It's in a nice subdivision. An older subdivision. We saw an old man running down the street as we were leaving. :) I want it. BAD.
It needs a little bit of updating. If we buy it, we're going to redo the kitchen and the bathrooms. The whole house is in hardwoods except the living room and the "bonus" room, which are carpeted. It has 4 bedrooms and a bonus room. Two bedrooms and the bonus room are upstairs and two bedrooms are downstairs. The bonus room was never finished... meaning, they didn't put the vents into the room, so it's not technically heated/air conditioned like the rest of the house. However, it felt about the same temperature as the rest of the house. It has 2.5 bathrooms. They're smallish, but with some updates, I think they'll be great. The living room has a fireplace. There is a formal dining room (I miss that in our house now). The kitchen is huge, but blank. There aren't enough cabinets or counterspace, but if we buy it, we're going to put in different cabinets and more counterspace. It has a beautiful stairwell and a screened in back porch. Our neighbors are really close (the only real downfall in my opinion), but across the street is just woods. Woods, woods, and more woods. :) We're only a few blocks from the Country Club (nice area of town!... not the ghetto!!!).
The realtor is supposed to call us back. He is finding out how much it costs per month to heat the house and to let us know when the A/C is turned back on so we can make sure that the air conditioner can keep the house cool (Joe and I both need it to be cold at night so we can sleep). Once we find out those things, I think we may make an offer. :) I'm so excited!!!
