We got 15 listings from the realtor and have narrowed it down to 11. We threw out 2 with only 2 bedrooms, 1 which was a modular home, and one which was a "as is" that was an asbestos shingle. We're hoping to go down next Friday to look at them all.
The lot sizes range from 1/2 acre to 2.5 acre, and the commutes are primarily in the hour+ area (I believe 3 are closer to work). I'm really excited to see them in person, a few sound very interesting.
We are looking for a 3 bedroom, 2 bath, on enough land for a large garden. I'm hoping a 1/2 acre will be plenty, but I really need to see it. 2+ acres would be nice to get us a little more secluded, but of course, we'll have to take the houses on all lots into consideration. We really would like a basement, but if the house is something we love, we can probably do without.
Marc is visiting Michigan this weekend, and I miss him already. It doesn't help that we watched Prince of Darkness last night and I know I'll be a little "uneasy" come nightfall. Got to hit Blockbuster for some comedies I guess :)
