just reduced!!!

the lovely home i grew up in is now being listed at $599,000.00 - a great price for what you get (compared to some other things on the market)!!! i will be sad to see it go.

this is the front yard (click on pictures to see detail):
this is the front room and main bathroom:
there are 5 bedrooms:
this is the master bedroom with half-bath:
this is the back room, looking towards the front at dining area/kitchen and study room, and the view out the back room windows (you can see the shrimp farms and ocean yonder - no neighbors back here!):
this is the dining area and kitchen (all-new appliances):
this is the washroom and second full bathroom:
and this is the deck off of the washroom (it's now painted and looks even more awesome - great for BBQ's!) my kids spent a great deal of time riding their bikes and cars back here *tear*:
the house is about 2,400 sq. ft. and the ground-level of the back of the house has potential for being remodeled into more living space. right off the deck is a clothesline. there are two carports and a big built-in shed off the main garage for storage (or maybe teeny rental?). it is fully fenced. it's a really great house in a great neighborhood. i grew up walking to school (elementary through high school). there is a nice, big park down the road where there are basketball courts, a baseball field and where lots of soccer games are played on saturdays, along with a playground and bathrooms. it is not in a flood or tsunami zone and you have a view of the mountains. it's perfect. and if we were employed and had the money, it would be ours.

Holy Moly, they really did an over-haul on the house. It was great a couple years ago, but look at it now, it is like new! I am impressed, it is amazing!
