Project anyone?

Well, that last post was on the heavy side. Let’s lighten it up a little!

This house just came on the market a block away from us. We noticed they were holding an open house when we were driving by last weekend, so we stopped to take a look.

It’s actually one of our closest neighbors, even though it’s on a different street. We can easily see it from our house; it’s at the bottom of the hill to the southwest of us.

It’s the same territorial style as ours, except it also has the traditional white trim that goes with the territorial style, that ours should have, but doesn’t yet. John’s really anxious to get some white pergolas built, but first things first. He needs to install the kitchen cabinets! And maybe unpack a little.

The neighbor’s house is also the correct stucco color.

LOL, “the correct stucco color”! I won’t even go there. All you’d have to do to get John and I to run screaming from the room is chant, “stucco color!”, “stucco color!” Ahhhh!

Here’s the back:

I didn’t take any indoor pictures because, oh my gosh, it’s a project. The carpet looked older than I am, even though the house isn’t as old as I am. Crazy wallpaper everywhere. Carpet can be changed easy enough, but it’s an awkward layout, plus they added a strange addition and it doesn’t flow well. But it’s a great price per square foot in an excellent location!

Don’t worry, we’re not buying it.
