The house is ours!

Unless the inspection/loan/closing fall through, this will be our home at the end of February. We are under contract, yipeee!

Entry

Kitchen (I want to get new sink, counter, and backsplash, but the charming cabinets will stay)







The home of future Super-Delish Thursdays


Deck off of kitchen/dining room! Wooo!


Living room


From entry, looking into dining room (rightish) and
hallway with first bedroom (leftish)


Dining room


Hall


Hall bath



Say it with me now: STORAGE!!!


BR #1 (scary paneling to be painted, cute puppy to be petted, and for $50, the ugly drapes are yours!!)


BR #2

'>
Great closets for an old house!


Master BR


Master bath
(I love it, I see its potential, and we've never had a master bath so this is decadence.
The shower is big!)




Full unfinished walk-out basement with 1 car garage, which we plan to finish



Happy, happy me the first time we saw the house, because I walked in and got the "this is it!" feeling



____________

I plan to record all our renovating and decorating experiences here, so prepare yourselves. This is going to be fun.

Yay congrats!!! The house is great!

Heidi said...

Congratulations!!!! Those hardwood floors look amazing!

Cheri (aka "The Mom Lady") said...

Oh what fun you'll have! What will you do with the kitchen then (which countertops, sink, etc.)? Looks like current/previous owners have kept it well and done good maintenance/upkeep.

Truly happy for you both.

Cheri - I think I want a beadboard backsplash, undermount sink, and maybe soapstone counters. But I have no idea what that would cost, so I reserve the right to change my mind. :-)

I love the bumble bee bathroom (BBB). Can't wait to soak in the lovely tube when I come to visit:) It will be like a bubble bath in the brightest of sunshine!

Make that "tub."

Did I miss the exterior pictures? Can't wait to see how cute the outside is. The interior is adorable. I LOVE houses with character. I can't wait to see what you do with it.

EEE! How exciting! That house is fabulous! The bathrooms are amazing...totally amazing.

I can't wait to see the journey into this century, with some style! Our house was similar, lots more paneling and wallpaper but good bones so it was easy to update!
