House!

So it's looking good for a house. Going to see my agent tomorrow morning, and we will be accepting the counter-offer to the offer I made today on a nice little place in Île Perrot.

It's an almost brand-new house (built in 2009) with a nice, if entirely unused, garden and a really awesome semi-finished basement. It's essentially perfect for my needs right now, nice and accessible, not so far from the city as to be unmanageable in terms of a commute, and there's a fresh fruit & veggie market at the end of my street.

In short, it's a good fit, and I am excited. I hope everything else works out so that, come this time in October, I will be moving into my very own house. :)


This is what the house looks like on the outside.

Looks good, and with a little curb appeal (maybe build a portico around the door that echoes the peaked gables, add some flowers and shrubs, and remove the 'decorative' boulders), and it will be even better! Hope everything goes smoothly and you snag the sucker!
Fingers crossed

Yup! There's already some flowers that you can't see in the picture, so with some TLC and a lot of gardening I think it'll end up looking great. I'm also thinking window boxes in the summer, if I can manage it. With some nice annuals, maybe. :)
