My Dream House is For Sale
http://www.realtor.com/search/listin...lsn=9&srcnt=99
Ugh...I love this house. It is in my neighborhood and I have ALWAYS loved this house. At the holidays, they always put beautiful wreaths all along the windows and it is just a gorgeous house.
Now that I've seen the inside, I have dreams about what I would do to decorate the inside (I'm not a fan of their style).
Obviously, we would never be able to afford this house, but I'd always hoped it would never go up for sale until we won the lottery. Now someone else will get my dream house!
We're fine where we are, but I think everyone has a dream house.My Blog: http://amysreallife.wordpress.com

Pretty house but the inside could use some updating.
Love the outside.

It's funny to see the price differences in different parts of the country. Here, that house would go for $250,000, and maybe less because off all the updating needed on the inside.
It's a great house with TONS of room! I love the large rooms, hardwood floors and stone fireplaces! Very cozy!

~The outside looks great but I really hate everything they've done inside. Eww ewww ewwww! That kind of square footage just boggles my mind. The family room is listed as 23X26 feet. Our entire house is 24X34, lol! But I can see the possibilities.~

They are very old...I think they've been in the house since it was built and haven't redecorated since.

It is a great house with wonderful "bones". All it would need is a bit of updating and and infusion of your personal style. Keep dreaming...you never know what the future will hold.
