Meanwhile, we went and looked at some houses in Queensbury on Friday. We already knew what neighborhood we wanted, and this one house suited us really well. Since we already knew where we wanted to be and this one had everything we were looking for, we made an offer on Saturday afternoon, and by the evening, the deal was done! Crazy fast.
The house is in really good condition, it just needs some work on the interior (see pink carpet and sweet, sweet wallpaper in the photo). There are rooms that are just as fine and even finer than this one, too. It has an awesome three-season porch off the back, a geothermal heat pump system. We'll probably end up re-doing the kitchen, which might mean moving some walls around in the rest of the bottom floor. The top floor can wait for a couple of years. :)
From the outside pictures, you can see that there is quite a bit of grass. It took me about 20 minutes to mow the grass in the back yard of our Flagstaff house. I imagine that it will take at least 30 minutes for this one. Also, there are a LOT of mature, deciduous trees in both the front and back yards. I have heard of people raking leaves before, and I have seen pictures, but the rake that we bought in Flagstaff was mostly for decoration. I'm curious to see how many slugs, I mean bags, we'll accumulate. Anyway, we're very excited!!
