Our New House!

So, the bungalow it is! I'm a bit hesitant to post this because I realize there is always the possibility that things could change, but we agreed upon an awesome price and all the paperwork has been signed. I still get emails from Trulia with local listings and was clicking through some other properties today when Nick reminded me our search is over. What a surreal thought! We know where we will be living now! Closing will be on or before the 22nd of March. If you are interested in reading about our path to homeownership thus far, read here.

So, here is a sneak peek of the winsome craftsman bungalow-ish home from the 1920's. If you are a home buff and by looking at these pics know the exact name of this style of house, please let me know. Take a look!

There are definitely some things that need to be fixed up/ remodeled, but those projects will be happening little-by-little, not all at once. Soon I'll be staring to post ideas for each room from paint to drapery to light fixtures. We'll definitely be hitting up the local flea market and resale shops and doing things on the cheap. I get so much joy from the hunt! I'll also be soliciting advice from any of you green thumbs. The landscaping is in much need of some TLC. I'm excited to start this journey!

    1. Thank you, Lora! We are blessed indeed! Could have never afforded something so unique and big in any of our former cities we called home. Moving to a small town has its perks! Stay tuned for the transformation!
