We signed for our house!

It's a done deal and we move in to our new (old) house on December 21, 2009! We are very excited and can hardly wait - less than two months to go. Our house is in the lovely town of Sackville, New Brunswick, just a few kilometers from the border with Nova Scotia.
The house was originally built in the 1890s and was renovated almost completely in the 1980s by the present owners; they did a really good job and have meticulously maintained the house ever since. Some of the charm includes hard and soft wood floors throughout, original pressed tin ceiling, custom kitchen, a second staircase from the master bedroom directly to the kitchen, and the perennial gardens. Did we say that we were pretty excited??

Here are some photos...

This is the backyard, and the fields beyond have pastures for sheep, cattle and horses...very nice.

One of the three bedrooms; we also have a second sitting/living room that will be used as a guest room/movie room.







We are also very much looking forward to having visitors!
