That's a nice looking house. Have any pics of the inside to share? But congrats anyway
Not yet, but I will soon. likely after painting commences. The previous owner attempted some minor wall repairs... they are not minor anymore.

I must have missed the story on the second one, I know the first one fell through.
First one the selller pulled a fast one and denied my bid after initially accepting. that was a 1500 square foot house. The next house flooded literally the day I was to take ownership under mysterious circumstances. this is the third one, and i've been keeping fairly hush hush about it for fear of jinxing myself again. It burned down, fell over and then sank into the swamp! oh, wait, that last bit was monty python, scratch that.

Congratulations! And get some landscaping!
That is an old file picture. Replace the lawn in that picture with weeds about 6 feet tall and you are pretty close to the state of disrepair the yard is in. that and someone quite literally stole half the retaining wall on the side of the yard. So first step will be to stabilize the yard and grade it to an acceptable angle. Then an irrigation system of some sort. Then a fence (which has to be this rediculously expensive PVC junk of course) After that, i;m thinking some sort of plants that look decorative enough out front, and a veggie garden out back. Primarily because it is difficult to grow a meat garden. I'm thinking I may extend the range of my aquarium and put in a little pond with a waterfall too.
This one is 1900 square foot, not including the garage. really overkill for just me, but i'm hopeing to rectify that part next.
