We decided on a house, and it's now in escrow.

We decided to stay in Sacramento because we both have lots of family here. The house is older but it's really well-built. It has 3 bedrooms, so the kids or Meesh's sister can stay on weekends and whatever.

It's got a door in the family room that takes you into this weird corridor where the laundry outlets are, and it keeps on going right through a storage area with a bunch of built-in shelving and then into a sort of party room with a brick BBQ grill at the far end. The party room part is not real big, like maybe 15' x 18'. It's got a sliding glass door to the backyard. It looks like most of it was a patio that the previous owner enclosed....like, everything past the laundry room.

It has pretty nice yards, but not too much yard, and there's a naval orange tree in the back. Also, there's a small shed back there, like for the mower and stuff we'll have to buy.

Anyway, we'll get it for a great price if escrow goes ok.

Frank, I'm so happy for you and Michelle. It looks like a great house! I know you will both be happy there, despite the weird corridor. :ROFLMAO: Fingers crossed that the escrow works out!
It's cute! Sounds like a great place for you and Michelle.
Yeah, it is pretty cute. And I'm keeping that 50s-looking turquoise awning and shutters (Meesh hates them :p).

@dseag2 that corridor thing is weird but it could be a lot less weird with some work. I'm thinking the part with loads of shelving could be a kids game room or a hobby, crafts or art studio, and the party room at the end could be an outdoor covered patio...I think it was, originally. The floor is bare cement and the BBQ grill is brick. Says outdoors to me.

Just watch HGTV and you will figure it all out! :ROFLMAO:
