Our Twin

We found a house that could work... Dunno though. Great price. Comes with pool access and beach access. It's the twin to the house we have now. Our big questions are do we like it because its what we know? And is it just too far away?

Tough questions to ask ourselves. The yard is eh. Apparently the lot next door is possibly for sale. We would have to find out who the owner is. Call them. Explain ourselves and hear her price. Could be worth it. The house isn't that expensive and with the lot we are golden. Right now it has a peek a boo view. Yeah, it's there but, you gotta scan for it. It doesn't exactly hit you. With the lot we could knock a few trees down and bam. Nice view.

The house itself is nothing spectacular. It's a split level. You have to climb a flight of stairs to get to the front door. Negative. Open the door and you have a choice. Go up stairs or go down stairs. If you choose to go up you walk into a rather open living space. It's quite nice, the space. It is currently spattered with dead moths and flies. We really aren't sure how they got there and there was nothing alive flying around. It has vaulted ceilings with track lighting. The kitchen is right there and it needs a refrigerator but that's it. Outside is a okay balcony. Again, lichen covered but inaccessible to deer. It may actually suck because it has no stairs into the yard. At the same time it doesn't suck because the deer cant get to the plants that inevitably would flourish on it. Down the hall is a bathroom and three bedrooms. One room has a mysterious spot. Could be a spilled drink, could be blood.

Downstairs is a laundry room, an awkward play room and the garage. Just like the house we currently rent. We hardly use the downstairs space. The one we have now is bigger and it's full of toys and possessions we can't part with.

I would say go for it. It's so cheap. However, it's a long drive from the ferry. Lets be realistic. It's not that bad. It just feels like its a long drive. It's a long drive to a decent grocery store and that is realistic. It's so tough. Cheap house, pool access, beach access, long drive, barely a yard, surrounded by neighbors with no fences dividing up properties, needs prettifying, possibly spending $40,000+ to get the neighboring lot. Why not keep looking for a place that has property? Gah!
