Oh my, I'd have to pick two.......Love that view!

Sunny

Me, too, FCM! My auntie is going to an open house today to look at the inside for us...if it's great, she'll make an offer! Only thing that concerns me from the outside pictures is the closeness to the road right there -- but, who wouldnt' want a white picket fence out front?  ;D

Thanks for looking & your opinion.

Oh YES< YES! Two ... it HAS to be TWO!  Love the view.... LOVE a pond... be sure and send pics of the insides.

Do you and hubby like to do remodeling?  If there are small quirks, you could fix them as long as the foundations are strong...

how busy is the road that you see... maybe it is a side road... but i think that a white picket fence would be just perfect with this house!

Ah, thanks, LRHG! Yes, my husband is actually a builder (all around fix-it man)...so, if the land is conducive, he could even add on if we need to. The price would certainly allow us to do that.

Plus, he wants some land to roam on -- I believe that home has a couple acres, is somewhat out in the country (but only 5 miles from town), thus the road isn't *too* heavily travelled.

I can't wait for him to look Tuesday & take photos!

I like 1 and 4! I like the views from 2, but we don't know the other houses' views...

I appreciate your feedback, Daisy -- you know we so often think alike. I have pictures of #1 and it really needs A LOT of work -- plus, it appears to have foundation issues (which isn't totally a problem for husband).

#4 definitely is in a nice neighborhood & has a decent back yar, however, it's pretty close to town, a private college, and the property/school taxes are rather outrageous.

That's the benefit/setback to moving back home, knowing the quirks of the area...

1 would be my second choice, but 2 really speaks to my heart.

So, when and why are you moving/??? You'll have to look for a winter coat as soon as you move!

Is the view you show from 2 a view from the back??? if so, then 2 has a GREAT back yard,  too... !!!!!!!!!!!!

Ahhh, I know, LRHG...trading the vacation life (blue skies 360 days/yr) for blizzards & rainy days. Kinda crazy, huh?

Overall, it's been a wild & crazy 2 years -- hurricanes, death(s) in the family, job issues for husband, etc.etc.etc..so, I'm just really eager to return 'home'. I *miss* the changing seasons, snow at Christmas, autumn (mostly), the comforts & securities of being in your home town, plus, the extensive natural/professional support system.

Thanks for asking...

Ooh winter coats are one of my passions! (Yes, I'm weird) I could see Sunny in a long, peacoat style wool muted red and brown plaid, or in a ski jacket style, puffy and light pink. I have all kinds of winter coats. I get at least one every year! (I have a black leather below-the-butt-length Banana Republic, a brown brushed suede with a fluffy caramel lining that shows around the collar, a white "Michelin Man" coat ski jacket, a red Landsend zipup waterproof with my name embroidered on the breast, a long green one with a zipout fuzzy liner that I only wear in really nasty conditions, a blue wool peacoat from the Army surplus store...and those are just the ones Hubby didn't make me get rid of last year)

I believe so, LRHG -- I'll know more in an hour or two when my aunt calls. She *crossing fingers* should be at the open house right now.

Is she going to send you pictures from the inside???

Okay, Daisy -- that's just too freaky.  When I moved down to FL 2 years ago, husband demanded that I choose 2 or 3 coats to keep -- so, I chose a BLACK Wool Peacoat, a Columbia ski jacket & a black leather jacket.

Well, when I flew up to PA for my mom's funeral in January -- I didn't take a coat with me. DUH! HOWEVER, there hanging in her coat closet was a brand new PINK ski jacket -- never been worn.

I said, she must've known!
