My Latest Purchase v. Home Ownership (Updated - remodel pic heavy)
Well on Thursday I signed my name more times that I have ever did in my entire life.
Its a perfect size for me. No wife, no kids (that I know of).
Its appox 1000 sq ft, 0.75 acre lot, 2 bed, one bath, full basement. Roof is about 10 yrs old, water heater and central heater were both replaced appox 3 years ago and the central air is about 7-10 years old.
The house only had one family that lived in it. It was a retirement home for them. It was built in the late 60s. No pets, or kids ever grew up in this home. Just an old couple.
There is enough room to build a garage and double the size of the house.
First plans are to do the bathroom, full remodel.
Living room is huge! 12 X 21
Kitchen is ok. I can live with it for a few year. The cabinets are all solid wood, hand made.
The two bedrooms are similar in shape and size. This is where the Tinder action will take place.
Like I said the first order of business is the bathroom. This wont be started until the 2nd week of setpember as I have the Tour this weekend and my parents are going on vacation as I get back from the tour. My father will be assisting me (probably doing most of the work) in doing the bathroom when he returns. I have minimal knowledge in doing restorations, so it will be a learning experience none the less.
