Free Tour!

Alright, you can all say it... FINALLY!!!! I have finally gotten around to posting pictures of our new house! I kept waiting until I had the house "more put together", but I've finally realized that when you have twice the square footage as before, it takes A LOT longer to put the house together. So here it is in it's present state, and little by little we'll get more done. So, before we start your free tour, I'd like to give you a few facts about our lovely abode:

- It was built in 1965
- It is officially considered a "one story with basement" because the downstairs is a daylight basement. It is built into a hill, so the backyard is actually level with the top floor of the house.
- It has over 2400 sq ft.
- Lucky us, it has new (within the last two years) windows, roof, HVAC system, kitchen floor, kitchen counters, and remodeled bathrooms. Not sure about the carpet, but it still looks pretty new.
- Since moving in, we have painted the kitchen and one wall in the living room, the ceiling in the
kitchen/dining/living rooms, hallway, upstairs bathroom, and deck. We've also done quite a bit of work taming vegetation in all parts of the yard, and Sam (with his dad's help) fixed the rain gutter.

Now, let the tour begin. Hope you enjoy it!

I loved the tour even though I have seen it in person (minus furniture). The painting looks great and it looks even better now that it is furnished.
