Well, we finished looking at homes around noon today, emailed our realtor with a bid on one of them and headed off to enjoy what was left of the afternoon. We decided to meander up to Brentwood to kill time before the Saturday evening service at Brentwood Fellowship Bible Church (I'm flying out early tomorrow) and along Franklin Road we saw what must be some of the biggest houses in the free world. What do people do with 15-20,000 square foot monstrosities like that???
Just as we were leaving Brentwood, my cell phone rang and it was Kim, our realtor, who said she had time to get our bid down formally - we were just a few miles from her building. We programmed her address into lovely Carmen the Garman and spent an hour or so doing the legal stuff, so it's official now - we have a bid in. The house is 2300 square feet with an open floor plan, 3 BR, 2-1/2 BA, all hardwood except the bedrooms. Everything is on one floor so we can live here forever. :)
Bruce doesn't have much room for his table saw - no basements in this part of the country and it's only a 2-car garage, but we'll figure something if we can get a deal worked out. Maybe he can put up a shed in the back yard and keep some of his toys out there!
We'll see!!
Looks beautiful Joanne! I'll be praying all goes well and the deal goes through!
