Our New House!

Only a little while later than we had expected (oh, 45 days later to be exact!) Matthew and I finally bought our new house!! It is about 30 miles from Savannah but has 6 wooded acres and is off a dirt road (perfect for riding!) Here are some photos from when we first went to look at the house. We are going to be very busy for the next couple of weeks moving and settling in but I will try to take some more photos as we do.

The "front" of the house. It could use a little sprucing up!
















The back of the house showing the screen room and car port. The window is in the kitchen.















The fenced in yard. I will put my horses in here for now but we will be clearing land for pastures soon.
















The very secluded driveway. I want to plant some fruit trees along it.















The 30' by 30' barn. I hope it is enough room for my tack room, hay storage, and Matthew's shop! We will be adding an overhang on the right for the bunnies and a shed on the left side for the horses.















Our wonderful large kitchen! The door on the right opens to the carport.















The other side of the kitchen, aka the dining room. That wallpaper has got to go!
















The laundry room is off of the kitchen.
















The guest bath has had most of the wallpaper removed but other than that is in great shape.
















Very spacious!




















One guest bedroom.
















The other guest bedroom.
















The living room has a cathedral ceiling and fireplace. The window and door look into the screen room. The door on the right opens into the kitchen.
















The master bedroom. It has 2 windows and 2 closets.
















The master bathroom. It has double vanities, a huge shower, a linen closet, and a toilet closet. This is the best part of the house!
















The master shower.















This is an old photo I found of the front of the house. I hope to make the place look this nice again!

  2. Yay! Finally, it all worked out. The house looks great and I'm sure you'll enjoy all the projects getting the house and barn just the way you want them. The master bath is great, having double sinks is heaven on earth I think. Now that you live in the country, you can get some chickens!!

    Love, Margaret
