One of my mom's must-haves when they were house-hunting for the house they now live in was indoor laundry, which was hard to find! Mostly it's out in the garage or completely outside, apparently (mine is in the garage). I'm not sure wood-burning fireplaces are even allowed here these days. Not in new builds, I'm pretty sure. Good luck, with finding something that will work for you, Calli!

That place is gorgeous, Hec, I can see why Emmett would want it!
