OKC updates
I went and looked at several houses yesterday with our REA, and I think we may have found "the one". It's in a super cute neighborhood, it's a historic home, and it's red brick. It's more of a colonial style, which isn't exactly what we were looking for, and the reason it wasn't higher on my list was just because the curb appeal wasn't that exciting. But, I walked into 4 different houses yesterday with great curb appeal, and the inside was VERY disappointing. I mean, we wouldn't mind having to do a FEW improvements, but a complete overhaul is just too big of a commitment for us right now.
Anyway, this house is so perfect for us! It's a little less than 2000 sqft. It's got 3 bedrooms, plus a den (with a door, sooo perfect for Tim's office) and a cute backyard. It's stylish and yet homey with all the details we'd expect from a historic home, plus the kitchen is updated already. AND...it's 15k under our price cap.
We still have 3 more homes to look at on Thursday, but unless we find one that totally blows this one out of the water, I think we'll try to move on it. Tim called last night, he's having a great time out on the river, despite the SIX HOURS of rain they had the first day. :) He sounded happy when we chatted, and told me he wants to buy a kayak now.
I've got a long day of work ahead of me, so I better get started. More to come!

Front porch, awesome kitchen, great back yard...
Major envy.
Wow the house is great! It looks like it's ready to move in. Good luck, I'm sure Tim will love it also.
Wow... I didn't expect it to be so cute inside, You are right - from the curb it's pretty ho-hum but inside its wonderful. Great find!
I meant to ask: are those stained glass windows flanking the front door? Can I tell you how much I LOVE THEM?
The front will be gorgeous with more mature shrubbery and maybe a little railing on the porch. Oh, and a Japanese maple in the front yard, or maybe a dwarf flowering plum/cherry tree. Oh, yes. Lovely.
