Possible house ?

This is the house we bid on yesterday...we'll find out today if the negotiation works out; the seller has been a little "quirky" to say the least. We're hoping for a November 30 closing date and I am being optomistic that we could have it painted, hardwood put down in the den, and the carpet replaced in a week-first of December - so we could be in the second week of December to try to get settled for Christmas and Grannie D to come. I've prayed that the doors will close if it's not supposed to happen in which case we'll go Saturday to look all over again. I keep chanting to myself what Caroline always says to keep things in perspective: "It's just a house"......

I think the house has real curb appeal; beautiful front and would need minimal landscaping.
Back needs lots of landscaping and fencing.

If we can afford it I would replace the corian countertops with granite.
This room is a little too orange/red for me. I would probably keep it red but a deeper one?

The house has the master bedroom and a "computer room" (left brick window) on bottom floor. 2 bedrooms and a bonus room (which would be our guest room) upstairs with a full bath. The computer room has a full bath next to it so guests would have their own bath downstairs. The room's really too small to make into a guest space. Love it.
