The little house that could

I was finally able to score some pictures of the little house we'll be moving into and slowly but surely remodeling. Trust me... it needs it!

                                                                                                                                                        

















Front of the house - Complete with sad little bushes and a detached porch! I definitely see some paint on the house and the shutters. Possibly gray with black shutters? Who knows...



















To the left of the house. The front yard is pretty open. I might plant some trees there.


















The right side of the house. According to the MLS listing there is supposed to be a driveway. Yeah...that doesn't exist! I hate parking in the grass; if nothing else we might put down some gravel until we get the driveway poured. 


















Back of the house- Its rough back here! The porch is detached from the house; who knows why! Don't know if you can tell but at the bottom of the stairs there is about a 3 foot drop to the ground below. Guess the previous owners had long legs!

There is a fenced in area for a dog and behind that a lot of woods that I hope to clear out. (Not all, but some)


















I don't see anyone to the left, lets check the right...


















Nope, no one here either!



I'm loving it!!!!
