Been trying to buy a house for the last 4 yrs or so.. Finally found one big enough for the 5 of us and got a great deal on it. The house is in great shape and doesn't need much. Just painted it inside and out, built a new deck off the back.. Relined one chimney, refinished the wide pine flooring... we have been in it for 3 mo now.. Love it.. Went from renting and 800sqft cottage to this 2500 sqft palace in the woods!
