There were still a couple of minor hiccups, but in the end, we walked out with our check and the buyers walked out with the keys.

In the meantime, thanks to retrorenovation.com, I&#8217;ve found an acceptable fabric that&#8217;s got purple in it but isn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

In particular, the line &#8220;The morning light when it&#8217;s in your face really shows your age.&#8221; That&#8217;s sort of the way we wound up feeling about the house on Margaret Avenue. It was relatively expensive, didn&#8217;t have a few of our &#8220;druthers,&#8221; and had a less-than-desireable living area floor [...]]]></description>

Basically, it offers almost everything we want: flat house, 3BR, basement, etc. Does it need work? Yes. Is it an overwhelming amount of work? I don&#8217;t think so.
