Looking at a new house…

Amanda and I have put an offer on a house in Port Angeles.

It’s an older home (1918, nearly 100yrs.)  has some nice open spaces, and some nice work spaces too.   A cute back yard, and a great view of the mountains.

Closing isn’t scheduled until the end of August, so anything could still happen, but wanted to post up some pictures anyhow.

North (Street) side of home. Original leaded diamond glass windows. Most are fitted with custom storm windows to seal out drafts. Nearly every window opens, but most of the weight cords have been broken.

The light fixture from the "Pink" bedroom. I don't know if it will stay, but it's kind of cool in its own uniqueness.

The living room and dining/parlor room both have these old drop lights. Each bulb has its own switch so you can dial in the amount of light you want. How goofy.

Living room from parlor. Amanda says the pink carpet has to go. I'm not so sure, it's really nice carpet. The furniture comes with as well, including the price stickers from the garage sale that must have happened previously. ;D

From the beige room into the living. It may look like wood, but it's just new vinyl. The floors in the bedroom and parlor will need to be replaced with something more fitting to the age of the home, but that's just cosmetic.
