The new casa PIP

I hope not to jinx the whole mortgage process and all that, but here are some pictures of our new casa that we're in contract with......the house is a dutch colonial built about 100 years ago.  I love old houses, and I especially love that its been recently painted and the floors refinished -- yay for not having to paint or pull up carpets!  ETA:  You can't really see the kitchen, but it's old...no upper cabinets!  I am going to probably do open shelving for the time being, budget wise.  There are 1.5 baths....trying to find my pics of those!

  • BEAUTIFUL!!! I love Dutch Colonials. There was one for sale in our price range when we were house hunting, but it was on a busy street. I still think about it. Congrats and I hope all goes well!

    (also, please repost this asking how to go about painting all the trim- just to start drama. Haha! I'm feeling evil today.) 

  • Awesome house!  I love the diagonal HW floors, the vintage chandelier, and the built in half wall cabinet with leaded glass panes!  So cool.  I look forward to seeing how you make it yours. 
  • Nice! Congrats and good luck.

    I LOOOOVE colonials, and I knew I wanted an old home.  I grew up in a colonial, and my sister has one, and my in-laws have one....me and my husband like the classic style.

    Ha - I would never!!  Especially since I know the 95 year old man who lived here beforehand was so in love with his house and keeping it pristine.  I think of an episode on HGTV or one of those channels where they painted someone's wood molding and they freaked -- because that's what I would do!
