And the house hunt continues...

We I probably drive my real estate lady nuts-o. I called her first thing Monday morning to ask if she'd show me a house nearby for lease. This house looks relatively small from the outside, but inside there are FIVE bedrooms. It is so cute and has so much charm. All the doors across appear to be original with the original screen doors and there is a great screen porch on the side. Much of the original hardware is in place and in great shape. However, the kitchen and baths (go figure) need to be gutted and brought up to date. 
Apparently the lady who owns it is a older lady who grew up in the house and from what I understand will not sell it. Which is unfortunate, because it is so cute and so close to being...run down. The back bedroom had at least 14 inches of ivy growing through the window--as in the roots were OUTSIDE and it crept in through some crack. This sweet little house needs some love--and a yard man, desperately.
