When I was young I would dream of buying a fixer upper and making it my own but as the years passed I had resigned myself to the fact that would never happen.
Our daughter, Cara, is back home living with us while her husband is out to sea with the military. They have talked about asking to come back to the east coast when Nik re-enlists. With that in mind, Cara started looking at the houses in this area. I started looking with her and saw one that was in my price range(cheap). In a short time, Mr. T and I had a house. 410 S. Raleigh Street!! And I love it even with all its flaws. So here it is....
This is the kitchen and sunroom(breakfast room) that is really the add on to the kitchen. Don't you just love the wallpaper? It was terrible getting it off the walls. We gave up in the sunroom and will put new sheetrock and wainscotting up. A door from the sunroom leads to the back porch. The porch is worth the entire price of the house. There is a wonderful breeze almost all the time. I will be spending many hours on that porch.
