Dream

For when I’m ready to buy…***

Near the center of the town, on a tree-lined street.

Close (but not too close) to the freeway.

3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths. Master suite with walk-in closets (with recessed lighting).

Large bay windows in the living room.

Library with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves (a less extravagant version of what you see in Beauty & the Beast) and a red armchair.

Crown molding. Everywhere.

Hardwood floors.

Kitchen with granite countertops and eat-in island.

Guest room/study with a daybed and a secretary desk.

Laundry space in the unit.

2-car garage. With storage room.

***The townhouse described above would NOT be my Dream Starter Home. The criteria for Dream Starter Home is much shorter: 1. Under $200,000. 2. Bigger than a closet. 3. In a non-sketchy neighborhood.

Have you got a price tag for your dream house yet?

Ha ha! In a non-sketchy neighborhood! That is great.

I love your website, and have to comment. You will not regreat buying! I bought my first condo at 24, sold it, brought another, sold it and now I have a great home. I want to upgrade again, but I can actually have something that I love and I’m paying myself each month! I get great tax deductions too – that’s something you will find to be a real blessing. I hope you find exactly what you want!
