Well, now I know why the kids were working so hard on fixing me up this spring. They started by fixing the ice dam damage in the dining room, repainted all the ceilings in the house, then fixed the squeak in the upstairs bathroom, which meant new tile to the floor. Steph started painting everything upstairs in Pale Oak (a Benjamin Moore color) to match the main level painting she did last year. They also finished the landscaping in the front and started decluttering. I should have figured it out sooner.
After a quick trip to Alaska (which they rave about), they kept cleaning things out. I had professional photos taken and was put on the market July 26. I had a lot of good showings and an offer on July 27. The kids let the open houses that were scheduled happen and then accepted the offer on Monday, July 30. Since then, I’ve been inspected and emptied even more. The kids will be closing on August 27, and I’ll have new owners that day. That means my time with you all will be over. There will be no more updates from me and my walls…
Before I go, I thought I’d share one final before and after… pictures from when the kids bought me and then from my professional photoshoot. Prepared to be amazed!
