I dream of having a home with a white picket fence lined with hydrangea, and while Sean and I are considering looking at homes right now, we both have very different ideals. I imagine a colonial or victorian with wood siding, definitely something old with lots of character. Bonus if there is already a cherry blossom or other flowering tree in the yard, and a porch would be nice. A kitchen with a pantry, lots of closet space, and a clawfoot tub also make my list. Sean's list consists of 1) inexpensive but not requiring updates, 2) gas heat, and 3) as little maintenance as possible. Combine those lists and I'm pretty sure we will house hunt for eternity. Regardless, we want a dog, so we need to move.

Lol that's happened to me before too, but sometimes it's worth it ;-). Love this little straw bag!

Oh gosh, I had to laugh at Sean's list - gas heat. I think every chef wants that! Ian is always trying to find some creative way to wire our home for gas, even though every home we've ever had included the cost of heat and it would require us to pay extra, just to he can have a gas stove! I'm sure you two will manage to find a compromise somewhere, it can be done. Although I admit that your wishlist sounds more appealing to me, and it does seem like this house sums it up pretty well ;)
ReplyDeletexox,

It sounds like you two would be perfect for the show House Hunters. It seems like the couples are always wanting two different styles of houses...ha ha!!

First of all you look gorgeoussss, I absolutely adore the pants !
ReplyDeleteOh wow - if it was a reality show I'd be cheering for you ! #TeamLydia Your dream home sounds like mine. We bought one about 11 years ago, home from 1880s, indoor patio, balcony, two stories, high ceilings, all wood, located in a UNESCO heritage site ... but we have never gotten around to fixing it. It's been empty ever since : (
Your outfit is absolutely stunning! A straw tote like yours is on my wishlist <3

When we first starting house hunting I never thought we would a place that could make us both happy as our "want" lists were so divergent. And it definitely took some time but eventually we found the perfect place!

Yes to the white picket fences and hydrangeas! And if you want a dog (a big one) then you do need a place with a backyard. By the way, loving your scalloped top.

That house is very pretty. The most important thing on my list is a big kitchen. I like the scallops on your shirt.
