Well we close on our 1st house in count'em 22 days. Yes, only 22 days away from the biggest life (financial) decision we've ever made....and I have yet to ever step foot in this bad boy...does that make me even more nervous...oh hell yeah.
That being said the builder is almost finished with making the changes we've requested and finishing the bonus room in the attic space. We are only finishing half of it and the other half is closed off and will be for storage. We may end putting another room and bathroom up there, but right now its not feasible nor required.
We will be using this bonus room as an additional living room. Our formal living room greets you right when you walk in the front door and unfortunately its just not that large. Additionally, it has one of those awful cutouts for the tv over the fireplace. This doesn't work for us for 2 reasons.
1. We have a large LCD television that is like 50 or 55" big, that will not be fitting in that hole in the wall and is just to big for the room.
2. We have a large sectional couch that will not work in that room.
So both of these are going to be going upstairs. Cross your fingers my couch fits up the stairway, its made up a stairway for my ol apartment building, so hopefully it works.
I would have loved for that to be my home office, but that's just not appropriate. We need that for living space. I've offered to let Mr. Jetplane do whatever he wants to that room if I get the rest of the house. He is still contemplating that offer, I think its a rather good one.
Here's how it shaping up so far... Its a rather large space with 2 windows for natural light. We were dark wood down on the floor to make what's in the downstairs living room.
Cross your fingers they finish soon because we have to have the appraisal and inspection done before closing.
I've been emailing our realtor she assures me that everything is on track. I pray she's right.
