Finally, I have the house keys! The Realtor still hasn't removed the lockbox and sign, but that's okay! http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b37/kafalk/DSC_1051E.jpg http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b37/kafalk/DSC_1052E.jpg http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b37/kafalk/DSC_1054E.jpg http://i16.photobuc...

Thanks, Diane! That downtown is what made me fall in love with the area. The first time I was there, I knew I had to eventually own a home there.

I get the keys to it tomorrow! I'll have a bunch of pictures to share by the end of this weekend.

There have been some stressful moments between June and now, but through it all, the house waited. I neglected to mention in my original post that I had been quietly watching this house sit for sale for about a year before we even looked at it; the list price at that time, however, was high.

I had a chance encounter with the family we're purchasing the house from today, and I learned a lot about the house and a bit of its [recent] history. I wish I had asked more questions, but I didn't want to take up too much of their time. I'm sure we'll keep in touch. Anyway, they've owned the house...

Anyone else have any fun listings to browse?? Sure! Here are some near us: m m m m m m m m m m m m And so on. We have a lot of old houses here. Oh, and THIS ONE! My absolute favorite house near our current home. We actually looked at this one ten years ago when we moved to the area, but it sold the...

I also have "before" pictures up on Pinterest, for another that's on there. I'll post some when I'm not so tired! m Cute staircase! I love it. It looks so inviting walking in through the front door. I can see where the kitchen appliances may need a little updating. Don't feel too bad abou...

I just realized I neglected to post a picture of the side of the house with the sun porch addition. Sorry about that! http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b37/kafalk/DSC_0089E.jpg Also, here's a picture of the inside of the sun porch. You can see one of the original exterior windows. There's another on...
