The Victorian is def out of the question after looking at the basement. It's rough. And scary. Good for storage at best. I got a closer look at the exterior of the house and it needs siding, windows, gutters, and a roof. Also it looks as though it was once chopped up into 2 apartments. Found the 2nd apartments door way. Its just too much money to sink into it for the price they are asking for it. It wont fit into our budget.
That brings us to the next house. This house was darling. Lots of built-in cabinets in the living room and cute spice cab in kitchen. Part of basement was finished and had a half bath. Also had a funky shaped kids room that made it very small. Oh and it's off a busy road and wow was that loud. I couldn't have a conversation with my agent on the front porch because of traffic noise. So that's a no. Sucha shame!
The 2nd house was on a beautiful, quiet street. I can picture us taking walks and the kids riding bikes here. I loved the paint colors, the flooring, & the woman of the house's decorating style. I want to stalk her and force her to be my new bestie. Kidding :/ Adorable kitchen, new windows, fenced yard, garage, new bath remodel, awesome arch ways, moldings and a black front door,gas stove- omg I gotta stop cuz I'm having heart palpitations just thinking of it.And the front porch is ca-yute! Just look at it!! Cute huh? And the light fixtures in the bath are so freaking sweet I squealed when I saw them. They are retro-industrial style complete with the cage surrounding the light bulb. ♥♥♥ Here's the listing link to the house. http://fortwayne.rapmls.com/scripts/mgrqispi.dll?APPNAME=Fortwayne&PRGNAME=MLSPropertyDetail&ARGUMENTS=-N959823653,-N281485,-N,-A,-N12693101
I'm sure if Collbran falls through that we'll put an offer in on this beauty. Fingers crossed still for Collbran.
