So Caleb and i had a walk through today at the old victorian. :O
Drop dead gorgeous inside. Functioning pocket doors in every room on the main floor, Gorgeous hand carved mantle, and original finish on the door frames, which are in beautiful condition. (Dark honey colored pine) All original pine floors, which need a lil' TLC but i kind of like the worn in charm they have.The chandelier in the kitchen is begging to be cleaned, it will be stunning all polished up.
The main floor bathroom has a small claw foot bathtub, just to soak in. Its ADORABLE!
The upstairs has a newly renovated bathroom , full size claw foot bath, new tile/ toilet, and a stand up shower in the corner. (which was poorly installed by the home owner, and caused water damage to the ceiling in the parlour down stairs.)
I'm hoping that the reason they have not sold the house yet is NOT because of a huge structural problem of some sort, and that it is still on the market due to the current owner being a border line hoarder,( It is hard to look around her things, which are stacked to the ceiling, and see the gorgeous house hiding underneath.) The house has been on the market since July 27th of 2010.
To get approved for this loan, according to our bank ( we want a 10 year mortgage ) we will have to sell my 1960 El Camino. *Sob*
