A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall My School House

After all considerations, (thanks in part to the opinions on this forum, 'opinions on a house' thread) All thats left is for the lawyer to sign the papers and in 2 weeks we'll be getting the keys :)



Arco is looking forward to being a country dog with a bit more space to roam, my dad is looking forward to more projects to be done. Mike (my fiance) is looking to being out of the city. And me I'm looking forward having a place that really is mine. I've been living with my Grandmother for the last few years so now I'll be able to set up house my way.

Can you see the school bell, we need to get a rope to it!


A look from behind the wood stove across the great room into the kitchen and at the stairs


from the same spot looking down the southern wall
the window in the top centre of the pic lets more light into the master bedroom


looking toward the southrn windows, you can make out part of the wood stove on the left of this pic





Hopefully I'll get more pics of the outside up soon. The garden are currently a gigantic bramble of weeds. With a lot of potential. When I get pics of those areas up I'll definalty want some input on what could be done

hat is one very nice looking house, soon to be a home.

Congratulations to you all.

Thanks we're all excited about it

is it all wood floors? Like the beadboard.

Oh this is very nice, Shani! I can just see what your loving hand will do to it. Looking forward to more pictures, too.

Yes all wood floors, Though the upstairs ones aren't nearly as nice as the main floor. Nice thick maple. Easy to refinish and easy to clean.

Congrats and very nice Shani

You guys will love it out in the country over the city life.
Love the wood beams and stairs ...one day i'll have my A-frame in Da woods

It will seem like the work is never done , but in time it will come all full circle and then you can say "we " did it ...and it's ours.

Have fun with your new adventure

snow

Awesome! I love it.

Congratulations...I am so happy for you.

Can't wait to follow along with you next spring, when you start your gardening adventures

yep for sure you will.
I was raised in town (al be it a small town)
A short while after we had out first Daughter, we bought my DH's Great-Aunt's house & out buildings on 5 acres. We were in the middle of 4 fields. I loved it, very much & did not regret moving to the country 1 minute.

Again I say congratulations !!!

Such a nice find, Shani! I love all the wood inside, and the light streaming through the windows!!! I can already envision all the wonderful houseplants you will have growing inside, with all that beautiful natural light!
