via san jose street


i found this house yesterday while looking through some listings and once michael and i started browsing through the pictures, we both really liked it. it is a one story nicely sized 3bed/2bath with a loft. the exterior needs some updating with the paint and lawn but it has a nice porch and a roomy driveway. not sure what condition the kitchen, bathrooms or backyard are in but the rooms that are pictured look super homey. the backyard already has a lemon tree(!!!) and the lot is 7405sqf.

we're meeting with our realtor tomorrow after work to view the rest of the house. (keep your fingers crossed!)


this is the living room with the dining area on the left. i loooove the wood floors and the baseboards, it's looks like they've been updated recently. the only things i would add to the rooms are crown moulding and paint.













the dining area is a nice size. unfortunately there aren't any pictures of the kitchen but i assume it's near the dining area. ???


view of the living room from the dining area.

















fireplace in the den/family room. it just needs a little elbow grease to clean it up. i do like the mantle a lot though. :)













the den/family room is actually an addition but it fits well with the rest of the house. i love this bay window! it would look so great with a window seat. i also like the recessed lighting throughout all the living spaces.

I like the layout a lot, very open and full of light.

that house already has the jenny flair! just needs a few sagey walls. :) i personally don't like recessed lighting, this is the one thing that separates us as sisters. ;)

let us know how the realtor meet-up went! i'm all ready to come over & help paint.
