We are three weeks into our house hunting and I suppose we have yet to have that “this is it!” feeling. I fall in love with places as I see them, imagining all the decorating possibilities, but that soon fades away as Ben gives his objections and I see his point.
But here are some of our favourites so far:
Its big, with room to move. But it does have carpets and paint like this:
Gross! But easily fixed. We wouldnt be able to afford the carpets straight away, but a rug is cheap and easy!
But it has a great kitchen:
Also a favourite:
Its cute!
And a great little side garden (at this stage, im hoping its the side garden and not the only garden we get!)
And a nice big kitchen – even if it is wood!
We are seeing it tonight, so fingers crossed its good! Its also across the road from shops, so not sure how I feel about that!
We are also considering what we are calling the dead house… its a deceased estate and the owner didnt die there, but Ben is still funny about the deceased estate! Its a cute little house on a big block of land, so room to extend out. But the bedrooms are quite small and Ben is not happy with that! But, I like it, so I will keep pushing for it.
I (very stupidly) feel as if we are running out of options each time we look at houses, and I am in this big rush rush rush buy something now!!!! move… I know its stupid, but I just want this part over and done with, so we can then move into our house, I can start buying all the prints Ive been bookmarking on etsy for the last year and plot my decorating.
Lets just hope that THE house comes along! Im not the biggest fan of losing entire weekends to house hunting!
