I know a great house for sale!!

Hey guys,

We have some big news!  We’re moving to Brooklyn!  I got a new job (and Nick has always been based out of NYC ), so we’re putting our house up for sale!  All the hubbub going on in our personal life is why we haven’t had time to really do much on the blog these days, but hopefully that will change soon.

So I’m putting it out there to all of you who have followed along on our journey with the renovations, the feature in Country Living, etc.  It’s been a lot of fun, and we hate to leave our beautiful house behind…but this is a chance that we couldn’t pass up.  Soooo….if any of you are looking for a great house in Philly (or know someone who is), then pass along our information!!  Here are pics of our house!

See all the pics after the jump

A $5 million sneak peak

Ever wanted to see inside a $5 million mansion?  Me too!  Well, today I got the chance, and thought I’d share it with you.  Enjoy!  (Oh, and if you happen to have that much laying around, then email me and I’ll send you the listing! Hah.)

I mean…pocket change, right?!

House Tour of Huron, South Dakota

I have no reason to not have been posting on the blog since the return from my vacation (other than I got engaged and have been seriously preoccupied!), so I do apologize for my lack of attention to this space.    I honestly can’t promise that it’s going to get better either…but I did take a lot of great photos of the houses of Huron, South Dakota while I was there.   I love looking at houses…and I hope you do too.

This one looks like the Brady house, no?   “Marsha! Marsha! Marsha!!”

This house needs a paint job, no?

They’ve turned this beautiful old Victorian into a museum.

Note the little tiny church in the front yard of this house.  Weird, right?

For such a small town, there was a shocking amount of variety here.  Anyways…I found it rather enjoyable checking out their houses while I was visiting.  Oh, and Mt Rushmore, the Black Hills, and the Badlands were all great too!

Sometimes there are no words: The “For Sale” Sneak Peak

A friend of mine, who is looking for a house in the neighborhood, posted a link to a home for sale with interior design that would make Liberace weep with joy.   There really aren’t words to describe these interior shots, so I’ll just let the pictures do the talking.

Wow.  Right?  I mean, am I right?!  A custom made ROUND satin bed?!  Holy crap!  The cajones of the owner of this house is astounding.  I’d love to meet this person because that is A LOT of look!   I mean, it’s not for everyone, but if  you are into that kind of thing and want to buy a new house, here’s the LINK to the listing.

On another note, I have to say that I really miss the process of buying a house.  Getting to look into other people’s houses is extremely intriguing…especially if they have really out-of-the-ordinary decorating skillz like this one.
