If you've noticed it's been really quiet here for the past week, it's for a very exciting reason. We have been in Ohio visiting my Grandparents and finding a home! We found one we absolutely adore, and the seller has accepted our offer! We've already knocked out the home and termite inspections, and we're thrilled to find there are no major issues with the property. It does need some cosmetic work in order to reflect our taste, but what home doesn't need some personal touches?
The home was built in 1924 and has been very well maintained. It's got tons of character and charm, and is perfect for my family. It has 4 bedrooms, a living room with built-in bookshelves, and a HUGE family room that has French doors leading out to the deck! There's also a ton of storage in the home, which is always a plus when you have a lot of stuff and 3 kids!
The home is also located in the town I grew up in and has a lot to do for families. It's within 5 minutes of the Natatorium, an indoor waterpark, and also WaterWorks, an ourdoor waterpark. There are also tons of parks in the area, and we will be within walking distance of the riverfront where they hold a lot of festivals and have live music every Friday night in the summer time!
We close in a couple of weeks and will make the move shortly thereafter! So there is lots to be done here. We need to pack, and we also need to try and sell as much as possible so we can afford to hire movers. We also need to find a couple of AC window units before the move. That's literally the ONLY bad thing about this home. No cooling! So while we save up to have a proper central air system in, we plan to use window units. Hey, I cannot survive the summer heat!
Anyway, here are some photos of our new home! Again, it needs redecorating, but it's simply a wonderful home with a ton of potential!
