Jim, I don't remember any hills like that in Surprise.

I replaced all the door knobs in our condo with lever handles. Very geezer friendly.
 
Yup, you got me. So, here's a revised list on how to spend $500.
Party food and drink for 25 of your friends................................$479.74
Marshmallows for 25...................................................................9.99
Gas (3 gallons).........................................................................10.23
Match (1).................................................................................. .04
 
BTW. Seriously. That house looks like the houses we have around here in Northeastern PA. As you look at the place, the chimney is always on the right. The main door is dead center, and outside of the chimney, the house is symmetrical. The windows are "6 on 6" ( 6 panes on top, 6 on the bottom). They have two small side attic windows. There are hundreds of these identical houses spread all through the Poconos. They are about 100 years old. Some of them look like yours, others are still well kept. Some homes have been added on, but you can make out the former house. I wondered if they were from a old time catalog or something. We close to "Coal Country" were miners had identical homes built near mines. Could these house be like that? Like I said, there are 100s of these same houses all over here. I've asked the owners, but they don't know who originally built their homes. Yours doesn't have a window over door and has a back addition, and the front door isn't exactly dead ceter, but the size of the house and pitch of the roof are similar?
 
my second husband and i bought a house just like that in n.h. it was a hundred years old we remodeled it and it didnt look like the same house---we had a little more than 500$ lol
 
Like Mrs. Robinson, I think it's kind of beautiful. I look at it and I can hear Allison Krauss singing Blue Grass.
After you get those steps put in you could plant some wild flowers around the front and maybe put in a well and a fire pit.
I have a feeling the kitchen isn't exactly state of the art.
 
I actually think it's kind of cute, I like simple stuff. With a good paint job, new steps to the front door, and a small porch it would look lovely. Cost would depend on whether you contract out or DIY.
