Also if you take a look at the pictures below you'll notice that only half of the house has green shutters on the front. The details that Hubby sent me had said that it was only 1780 square feet which I thought was really odd.....well it's two houses in the one house. So the half with the shutters is the house that we were looking at and the other half is someone else's.
The worst thing was that the house was not structurally sound. The stucco on the outside had actually started to buckle and come away from the house and the whole place leaned.
I didn't get my hopes up or anything because I knew there was a good chance that the house would need just too much work on it but I have to say I got a little disspointed when I stepped out onto the balcony and looked at the other houses in the culd-a-sac. It reminded me of the little town in The Holiday where Cameron Diaz has her little Cooper driving fiasco. And it was at night so all of the houses were lit up and just looked so inviting......
Oh well, it wasn't meant to be but thank you girls for all of your well wishes and comments!!
