In Love with a NEW Home

So, many of you knew that John and I were in love with a home just a month ago. We thought for sure, if this stupid condo sold, that it would be our dream home. Little did we know then that our dream home had a HUGE problem in the basement - lots and lots of water. When we went to the builder they gave us some lame excuse about the home. We thankfully never signed the contingent contract and were able to get our down payment back.

So we are now in love with ANOTHER home. We've been three times to see it. It is another new build, just waiting for someone to move in. We've also been to see it twice after a hard rain or snow melting and we've found no water in the full basement. Here is a picture of it:It is called the Norwood. Who comes up with these names??? Anyway...the one we like is actually flipped, so the garage is on the left and the area by the bottom two windows is actually stone, not siding. The house itself is a gray/blue color. Very pretty, in my own opinion! :-)

Here is the first floor. Quite open, and the house we like DOES have the six foot bump-out with fireplace and a transcom window over it. Makes the living room HUGE:

Then here is the second floor. The house we like has the deluxe master bedroom.

Now we just have to keep our fingers crossed that THIS house turns out to be OUR house, and that OUR condo SELLS!!!!!!

Looks great, although these are a lot like ultra-sounds for me in that I can't really see what I'm looking at! :) Can't wait to see it in person. I'm sending selling and buying dust your way!
