Cute little cottage





See this little house? Sometimes I take the road that runs past it, and I've always loved it's appearance. There's just something warm & inviting to it, all tucked down like it is.

Damned if the other day I drove past it, and there was a FOR SALE sign on it!!!! Shit, shit, shit!!! I would LOVE to own it!! But when I checked it out at the Sutton website, then I see that it has a gravity furnace. Not great - means the whole system has to be changed. When I was a teenager, we lived in a house that had a gravity furnace. BIG honking thing it was! And I would need a/c put in, which, I guess, if you were to do the heating system, it would be a great time to add a/c.

Hmmmmm.... main floor laundry. ~big sigh~ Means it's probably just the dinosaur furnace downstairs, probably a dirt space. Well, okay, who needs a basement anyway? After all, the house has a 2nd story. And a garage for storage!!

It's a good size place (1580 sq ft), considering it really doesn't look like it. The rooms are comparable to our place now..... I know, I measured!! LOL

But.... it's on a busy street. Quite close to the train tracks. Nothing like being caught between the two - noise wise. And back to having only a side yard, no back yard. I would still like to see the inside tho!!

And good ole Dave says to me.....
"You want something a little more off the beaten path."

Ya, well.... it's just so darn cute!!
Well, hopefully they will have an open house and I can take a tour!!
