I won’t even start off by saying that it has been too long since I wrote. It has and I apologize. I do have a good excuse though. We put in an offer on a house and should be closing on the 29th. For a house that I didn’t even want to go look at, we both walked in and fell in love with it. We are so excited to finally move in and have it our home. The house itself is on 15th avenue and in the section of the city called Beacon Hill. It is only 2 miles from downtown and the park a few blocks away have the best city views. It will be about 10 miles for Rob to drive to work and we anticipate the traffic to be much easier for him as well. This will be a good spot.
The house itself is on a semi busy street and that turned me off at first, but it turns out its really not that bad. The windows are all leaded glass and it has the original big wooden door. The walls are plaster with a picture railing across the entire room and the fireplace has the original tile work. All the rooms downstairs have the original hard wood floor and they don’t need any work. The only thing that needs to be done is the kitchen updated and the walls cleaned and painted. We have a full basement with 1 finished bedroom and a not finished bathroom that we can do ourselves. The basement needs to be retiled, but that is not a big deal either. We will have a garage that Rob wanted and the small backyard that we can grow plants, but won’t require a lot of work. Here are some more pictures from Shutterfly if you want to check it out. I will keep updating.
