A Trip Back In Time...

 

I recently sold a house to a buyer where the house truly was stuck in a different time.  A time when I wasn't even born!  It was an Estate sale in a cute neighborhood, great Alexandria location, large yard that just needs a little modernization.  A great buy for someone who has the time to make a few updates.  This house came complete with a clock in the kitchen like I have never seen.  It was actually built into the wall as shown in photos 1 and 2.  The funny thing is that they probably sell something like it at Target designed by one of their trendy designers.  All things really do recycle back.  I also thought the linoleum floors were interesting.  They are much higher quality than anything you could get today.  The light switches as shown in photo 4 are quite interesting.  The fire alarm shown in photo 5 was an actual bell.  Finally, the property even came with a vintage Eureka vacuum! 

Anyways, congratulations Brian on your first home!  We are very excited for you!  I enjoyed seeing the plans for the kitchen remodel which is going to be awesome once completed!

# re: A Trip Back In Time...

Thanks Kim, it will be an adventure getting this going but I am really excited to be in my house sooner rather than later, the dogs are really going to love having a backyard to run around in and chase squirrels in.  I cant wait to have a driveway to park in instead of fighting it out for street parallel parking every night too.

Thanks for all the help with getting my house, Brian.
