Last week we sold our house and bought a new one! Technically we don't close until the 5th on either house, but we're pretty much there. There is still a lot to do on both houses not to mention I've got to pack an entire house in the next two weeks. First though, let me introduce you to our future home:

Front of the house taken from the MLS because I somehow didn't take one.

View from the front door looking out at the courtyard entry.

Front living room

Back living room. I'm not sure what to do with this room.

Another view of the back living room. The wall not in the picture on the left is all a built in bookcase.

Kitchen from the utility room.

Sun Room

The Sun Room connects to the back living room and the kitchen has a window that looks out into it.

The Master Bedroom. Be jealous of my platform for the bed.

Master bath.

Bedroom Two

Bedroom Three.

Second Bath. I can't get over that half door.

Another of the bath.

Patio.

Koi Pond. Anyone want a goldfish? We've got about 50 too many.

Backyard

So much yard!

Side yard also in the back. I'd love to put the chickens there, but I think it's too close to the neighbor.
It definitely needs some love. Right away we have to work on the sun room due to some water damage. I'd also like to tear out the carpet in the front living room and the linoleum in the kitchen. I'd love to do the floors in the master and the back living room, but may have to wait. The platform in the master is concrete so we'd have to bust it up.
Of course there will be lots of removing old wallpaper and painting in my future. The front living also had a bad touch up paint job on the ceiling so we've got some glitter popcorn to remove in there. We're going to do it one step at a time though.
Fingers crossed that everything continues to go smoothly with the sale and purchase. We have one more repair to do on our house and we're good to go. I also have to dig up St. Joseph from the backyard. I'll give him a sunny corner of the sun room to hang out in!
