The Colonial

July 29, 2011

When we originally looked at the colonial, she needed a new roof and the price was ok but not what we were looking to pay.  When we finally did sell our home, the colonial had a new roof and the price had dropped $20,000!
A lot of people thought we were crazy to buy an old home that quite frankly was not the cutest but we didn’t care.  We live in an AWESOME neighborhood where the neighbors have become great friends, the kid’s are within walking distance to their school and the street is not busy with traffic at all.   We have been able to redo the kitchen, we put new siding on and the great thing is, financially we are much better off!  

Here are all the rooms we have remodeled and some we didn’t in the Colonial.  Just click on the picture to take you to the posting(s) regarding that room. Enjoy!

 

Well that’s the tour! I hope you enjoyed it and stay tuned for posts about the New Place.
