We bought a house. There, wasn't that easy? After a few months of spending our weekends house hunting, the search is over. I can't believe it. It hasn't sunk in. WE. BOUGHT. A. HOUSE.
And it sure is a beauty. In recent weeks, HandyMan and I have managed to get a better handle on what type of abode we wanted to call 'home'. It had to be a fixer-upper. It had to have good bones and good street presence. Ideally, it would have a fireplace and a long set of stairs that I could make into my 'dream stairs'... white risers, glossy black treads and hand rail, creamy sisal runner up the middle. Well guess what - we got all that and more!
The house is in Leaside. We'll be two blocks from Winners, Home Depot, and Canadian Tire. Cute shops and restaurants are a 15 minute walk away. I can already picture our early Sunday mornings... stopping by Rahier for fresh pastries, dropping by Home Depot (where the staff will quickly know us by name!). I'm feeling disbelief and excitement at all the possibilities. Which reminds me, gotta add more tools to the wedding registry ;)
