Lol not yet! Actually while we were down there, Scott's camera stopped working (and still won't work!) so we used my grandma's camera for awhile. We don't have many pictures, but we've been trying to compile everyone's pictures to put on a disc for each person. We're still waiting on one SD card though!

By the way, that house was AMAZING. It's an old character home from 1916, a historic Eaton's catalogue home. Back then, you could order your house from Eaton's (huge department store back in the day) through their catalogue and the whole thing would be shipped to you by train and you would just put it together on your farm site! So that's pretty neat!

Anyways, there is a photo album left with the house showing the people who bought it in 1997. It was an old looking building that was completely weathered and grey! The pictures go on to show them stripping it to the studs, and moving it to town onto a new full height basement, and adding an addition to the back. The electrical and plumbing is all new, it has TWO furnaces (both with air conditioning) so you can control temperatures on different floors. They also added a large two-car garage.

The main floor has a gigantic kitchen with an island with cooktop, built-in oven, lots of newer cabinets, THREE sinks under the kitchen window, and another small sink on a bar area on the other side! There's also a little eating nook, formal dining room, living room with gorgeous pillars, and the addition has a laundry room just off the garage entrance, and a HOT TUB ROOM Oh and a bathroom.

The second level has three bedrooms and a gorgeous bathroom with a corner jet tub and a separate shower. There is also a second floor balcony on the front of the house.

The third level is a large 18x18 open room with three dormer windows.

Oh yeah, and the basement is unfinished, but already has walls constructed and drywalled for another bedroom, and a bathroom is roughed in.

I don't know if we can pass it up... it would be the perfect home for raising a family, in a small town and just a block from the school. We'd never run out of room! And it's double the size of something we could get for the same price in the city.

I can't wait to see if the bank says we could actually afford it! Lol

Here's a couple of the outside pictures from the online listing

It is beautiful!! I hope the bank says you can afford it too if that's what you want Lynsey. It is a very lovely home. I see that there is a nice back yard too for Layla.
Now I can't wait to see inside pics
