Squeee!

I'm so, so, so happy to report that Ben and I got the house we wanted!

If I could make out with a house, it would be this one.

Things were looking a bit dicey there for a while... the seller's were playing hard ball and there was another buyer potentially in the mix. We're paying slightly more than we wanted to for it, but it's a great house in the perfect location. It's basically move in ready, minus needing a fence for Stella and paint in Will's room (currently pink). The decor is a little bland right now, but as a dear friend put it, "I can't wait to see you Sam that place up!" Right on.

Here's a few shots from the MLS site. Sorry they're such low resolution. Hopefully I can snap some better shots at the home inspection next week.

Dining room. They have a chair in there, which we think is weird.
But we love the fire place! The chairs you see in the foreground
are for the kitchen island.

Kitchen. We'll eventually upgrade to black or stainless appliances,
maybe new countertops and a tile back splash.

Living room. Does the fireplace look familiar? It's a two way fireplace
between the dining room and the living room. Love!
