Pictures of the house (Read:fixer upper) we put an offer on!

You'll need to look at the pictures with rose colored glasses, and you will also need to consider that Roger is a plumber and is pretty darn handy in general construction. I also love to paint and do home projects.

This house is a foreclosure and needs work before we move in. It was built in 1890! I love old victorian homes. When we saw the house, we both knew we wanted to put an offer in. It would be so exciting to work on this house together and make it our own.

We're taking any good thoughts you can spare. Thanks!!

Here is the outside. Imagine a new paint job, windows, and that lattice ripped out! We'd put a wrap-around porch eventually too!


Both bathrooms have the original clawfoot tubs. They just need refinishing on the outside. I already checked out the kit at Lowe's!


The moldings are just stunning! And the hardwood floors just need to be sanded and refinished!
