Looking Again

When we moved to the house we're in now we were all like "we're not moving again for two years because moving stinks!"  Oh the innocence of 6 months ago.  Not that we're moving, but we are looking for a house to buy which means we would move if we found something.  It just doesn't make sense to rent the house we're in when we could buy [the house below] for the same monthly price.  When we bought our Idaho house Tom had already walked through 200 houses.  But it was pretty much destiny that we found that one.  So anyway, now we are "in the market," so to speak, and we'll probably look at a whole bunchy bunch that I'll post on the blog (if they are blog worthy).  Let me show you the house I want, or I think I want (because we haven't actually been inside yet).

I have ALWAYS wanted columns!

Love the french doors and the porch.

Kind of a small kitchen, but it's pretty.

The banister would need to be stained dark brown and even though I really like the color of these walls, I'm so obsessed with the foyer in the show Revenge that I would try to make it look more like...

I've also always wanted a claw foot tub with a chandelier above it, which this house just happens to have.

And I like how fun the basement is.

So, we'll see.  It has been on the market since May.  I don't think it will go anywhere anytime soon but I could be wrong.  Maybe seeing it will be on the agenda for tomorrow.

  3. Kelli,
    I don't know how I found your blog, but I've been following you for a while. It was your home buying information that got me hooked. My Husband and I took a class last week about purchasing homes, and we'd like to get started trying to invest in Real Estate. Thank you for the past info, and I look forward to any more information you share!!
    This home is Beautiful!
    Carrie.
