You don't have to live IN the house !! <BR/>Unless you can afford to gut and start over ...

I actual...I guess I'm more with Bernie on this one. I actually like the house, but then a lot of that is nostalgia. It looks so much like late sixties and early seventies. I agree that it is not for anyone who goes for today's styles. I'm just a little stuck in the past and have so much problems finding the old styles...but they are coming back...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00043914505660475682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29053672.post-29234856499151196732008-11-05T06:20:00.000-07:002008-11-05T06:20:00.000-07:00You mean that you didn't just drool over that ...You mean that you didn't just drool over that range and dishwasher sticking out there like that? Actually, as dated as this house is (in and out), it does have a lot of potential. If you could negotiate that price down lower, you'd have enough for a major redo (yet, there are steps...). <BR/><BR/>That "farmily room down" reminds me of the family room in our first house - a fixer-upper (it was all we could afford then, but we had DIY-ers and home builders in our immediate families). That first family room had black barnwood paneling, shredded black & white wallpaper, multi-hued green shag carpeting, and a brown-wood ceiling fixture that someone stole from an old farmhouse. We weren't anywhere near a beach, but when we pulled up the carpeting, there was a good inch of sand on the floor!!<BR/><BR/>We made a killing when we sold that house four years later after all of our improvements.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29053672.post-75334089299983661042008-11-04T21:27:00.001-07:002008-11-04T21:27:00.001-07:00Pass the computer to Bernie .. .Bernie. .
