Offer made and accepted!

Front of house
The Sunday before our wedding we had an appointment to see this house in Northfield Village. I wasn't crazy about the neighborhood, but M drove by and said he thought I'd really like it.

The minute we drove up to it, I knew I wanted it! We had talked about possibly making an offer if we liked what we saw inside, because we sure liked the outside, and the description sounded like exactly what we were looking for.

We went inside and were pretty impressed. Big, renovated kitchen. Hard wood floors. Wood trim. New windows. Built in 1925, which is about the age of home I wanted.

And the outside is charming. There's a big wrap around porch that spans three sides of the house. Two-car garage, and a shed. And lots of "mature landscaping" as the listing says. It really looks like a summer cottage.

So we went back to our agent's office and wrote out the offer. The next day we found out they accepted it, and we scheduled a house inspection to be done before our wedding.
