It's in the perfect location in between our school/church and the subway, tucked back in a little side street, and within easy walking distance of our friends and host family here.
WHY IT IS AWESOME:
- biggest space we've seen in our price range
- cheapest (by far) we've found in the neighborhood we love
- corner house
- lots of natural light
- upstairs is already built with 2 (big) bedrooms
- we could easily built on more when we want
- there is a side area of 2 small rooms with it's own door outside that could be used for our tutoring business or, if Tracey has his way, our own almacen where we sell wheat bread, homemade peanut butter, and his new discovery: banana ice cream (it's better than it sounds)...
We've definitely got some work to do once we get the keys; the owners weren't the most intentional with upkeep :)
Yesterday we signed a contract to reserve the house for 90 days- Now we just need to wait for our paperwork to come in, get a bank account, and make it official! As soon as that all happens, they have 60 days to give us the keys. So hopefully by January, we will be living in our first house!
Thank you all for praying! This was HUGE!! :)
Yay! Congratulations on your new house! Can't wait to see some pictures when everything comes to pass! So glad you are in a location you love and were able to get more space than you thought! Love ya and miss ya!
