Time To Build a Dream


Our offer was accepted on the property today! We are really excited about the prospect of building a "mid century modern" home. .
We have always bought fixers so the idea of building something from the ground up is really appealing.


It was a good day.

Are We Nuts?


Tomorrow we will take the plunge and hope for the best. We are putting in an offer on a piece of property, so send some good ju-jus our way. Here are a few pictures of homes I wish we could afford to build.

We love Eichler homes
from the fifties...

We like the industrial look too.
We also like mixing modern with rustic.
And bringing the outdoors in.
I see a white cinderblock fireplace
in our future.
You get the idea...lots of windows mixed
with a tad of industrial and
lots of mid century modern.
On a shoestring budget. No sweat!
