Our house in St. Louis

Built in 1908, 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, 1,906 sq. ft. Located near my school and J.D.'s work.


The outside-- it's your typical brick St. Louis style. I'm really looking forward to hanging flower baskets on the porch next spring. Maybe J.D. will even make me a swing for summer mornings out with the baby.

Front entrance-- pretty glass door, green slate flooring.

Stairs of course-- I'm day dreaming about decorating them for the holidays already. I'm silly. :) Door to basement sort of showing too.

French doors to master bath. Curtains will be good here I think. :)

Sanctuary from the world (the bathtub that is). :) Will be much used and loved.

Another sort of rest place I suppose, with a privacy wall.

Master bath-- double sinks.
Living / sitting room on the main level.
Kitchen-- new stove, with counter space... highly valued by me.

Kitchen island with sink and dishwasher (holy cow! I'll have a dishwasher!). I don't know why they didn't turn the lights on for these pictures. It's much nicer in the light. :) You can still sort of see the back door and an open area for a dining room table. The lower bathroom is to the left.

Downstairs half-bath with tile floor (like kitchen) and granite counter.
Still need some pictures of the backyard, deck, garage, & bedrooms. We'll have to add some later, since I just took these pictures from the listing website. Well, that's it!
It's almost our house! And we're so excited!

I think J.D. and I will be very happy here. It's a good first place to raise our son.

I drool. Very envious.

Definitely curtains for the master bath or at least frost the glass.

You know I love the house!

And I really like the double sink feature in the bathroom with the drawers in between....lots of room for storage!

So happy for you all!
