It's not much and it was built in the 1960's (with original single-paned, non-opening windows AND brown wood paneling) and is in desperate need of some major updates but, despite all of that, I really do love it. Here is another view from farther away, taken at dusk.

Being short on cash, we cannot fix some of the most abhorrent of problems, like the popcorn ceilings in every room (even the closets) or the wall to wall carpet that stretches from the living room to each of the bedrooms, without a seam in sight (no idea how that happened) and we definitely cannot replace the pink tub and sink in our only bathroom... the list is endless of what we would love to do but cannot yet. But let's focus on the stuff that we DID do. We did get to painting early on, thanks to my boyfriend's sister and her boyfriend. We actually had the whole place de-wallpapered and painted in under a week... although I had to re-paint the kitchen. We are also working on replacing the windows since there was a sweet tax break in it for us.
Painting pictures to come soon!
