After months of house hunting, getting in to multiple bid
situations, I finally have found myself a new homeowner in the quintessential
southern neighborhood. Within days of moving in I met all my neighbors, each coming
by to welcome me to the block and offering to lend a hand. Ancient oaks and pecan trees line the streets that are perfect for walking and running on a beautiful afternoon. The bungalows, with their deep front porches, give the area historic charm unlike many developments today.
While I knew I landed myself in a great location, the house
needed a bit of a “facelift”. The 20
year old roof and overgrown landscape needed immediate attention (before and after pictures to come).
When searching for a home I knew I wanted an
older home and with older homes come many projects. At the end of the day, this house has GREAT
bones, fantastic potential, and the perfect fenced in backyard for my shaggy girl, Gidget.
