Craig & Claire's Great House!

This morning Ted and I took off to have a good breakfast in preparation of the manual labor Craig and Claire were going to assign to us...lol!  We were saved!  Since it was 10:00 and we were to be at the new house at 1:00, we all went to look around Home Depot instead!  They picked up some paint samples and Claire found a light to replace the dining room chandelier that is supposed to be taken by the seller.  We had fun looking around with them and then headed to see the house!

The house is 2500 square feet, 3 bedrooms 2 1/2 baths, living room, formal dining room, den/office, breakfast nook, kitchen and laundry area.  It is a one level ranch style house.  The house is in great condition considering it was built in 1955 and has not been remodeled.  Craig and Claire will have a lot of fun with it.  They plan to have all of the "dated" wallpaper removed, paint, new flooring and new carpet before they move in.  It has a two car garage and a very large lot.  It has a new fence in the back yard.  They also will be putting in a new air conditioner.  FHA only requires that it has heat and the forced air furnace works great (it was cold today and house warmed right up), but the water cooled unit doesn't work!

Here are some pictures:

Craig's best man, Nate and his girlfriend, Jessica, joined us at the house!

Happy for Craig and Claire..."Ain't Life Grand!"
