There's a house in Mom's neighborhood listed at $260,000, it's not big by the neighborhood standards (which isn't that big) and has more than a postage size lawn. It's been on the market for almost 3 months now so I don't think it will get what they are asking.
Mom desperately wants to get out of her town home and into a one story house, but she can't afford to buy anything in the neighborhood.
The house down the road from us, identical in size and era, is going for $314,000.
Can't say that I'm shocked.
Wonder if it will magically turn into three $350k townhomes...
t pets her affordable, Midwestern housing prices
Sure, we have next to no culture or scenery. Not sure if equity is a good trade-off.
What's the square footage on that house? It's gorgeous. I like that they weren't afraid of color inside. I'm a big old sucker for Craftsman stuff, though.
To-Do List for Next 5-10 Years
1. Write best-selling books
2. Contemplate Seattle housing market
3. Contemplate political direction of country, lack of universal healthcare, etc.
4. Move to Canada. Or England. Not that the housing market is any better in Vancouver or Victoria or London or Bath, but universal healthcare!

Over 2000. Can't recall the exacts.
Emeline = the cute, in spite of scary Miracleman DNA.
What's really scary is that she looks SO MUCH LIKE HIM. Which boggles the mind, because I've seen MM in a dress, and he makes an UGLY woman, so how did Emma get so CUTE?

I'm guessing no, since these are small lots, and the zoning in this part of town is rough on anything other than mother-in-laws.

2600 sq. ft. It's 5 bedrooms and 1.75 baths. I think the rec room could be guest quarters, as it has a small kitchen and a bathroom with a shower.
I do like they way it's staged. I believe the couple selling it is in the business of buying/fixing up/selling homes. They've been working hard on it all month. I wish she had sent me some before pictures.
Hi Seany! See you soon too!
Okay, I've only got 5 minutes left before i have to go get food. Jilli is probably right this minute en route to the Neil Gaiman reading that's occuring at Msoft.
