♥ Back flash from the 50's, 60's & 70's...

Okay I just HAD to share this one with you! It "looks" good from FAR away
This is about all the yard there is! It's a nice little neighborhood though!

This is the living room. It has some major roof leak spots up by that window. The carpet.... yeah...
This is the kitchen. Check out that lighting up above! And those cabinets can you say 1950's??? Same thing with the linoleum. You gotta check out that dishwasher!
Ya gotta love the oven/stove. My grandma used to have one like this when we were little. Except I think that it was baby blue.
This is a bedroom. They call it the master bedroom but hello there is no bathroom so it can't be a master!
Another bedroom upstairs.
The upstairs bathroom.


Not much has been updated. Okay wait NOTHING has been updated at all. No vinyl windows nothing and the best FEATURES of all there aren't any pictures of and I forgot to take my camera in. We didn't even think about it until the Realtor had already driven away! DANG IT!
The downstairs family room was AWESOME!!! Okay that's my sarcastic side showing through. It was crazy the carpet was shag, orange & brown. The walls were a funky panelling of BRIGHT yellowy orange and wood panelling. The other bedrooms downstairs were just as bad and out dated. I'm just sad that I didn't get a picture. It was crazy! We're pretty sure that since it was an estate sale the owners were pretty old and had lived there for a very long time. It doesn't look like anything has been done since the 70's. The price was right however all the fixing up wasn't worth the price! Tonight I should have another place to show everyone and if it looks as good on the inside as it does on the outside I'll be thrilled! :)

so funny. But cant you just see living there and fixing it up. I could imagine living anywhere but really the cost prevents it. We actually made an offer on a house that I had to put my nose and mouth inside my shirt. hehe but it was a block away from my sister.

That house is BAD!!!
I can't stand old out dated anything, but the kitchen especially!
I really hope you guys find something before you have to go back.
Good Luck!!!

Well, it could use a little work. But home is where the heart is?

Oh my! No thanks.

ha ha ha!!! My goodness. I remember having orange shag carpet in my bedroom growing up. We yanked it out... before I was a teenager!

And doesn't that kitchen shoot look like a few sceens in Napoleon Dynamite? Fixer upers can be fun- but a lot of work.

Yeah baby!

Ok, seriously, growing up we had FLOOR LIKE THAT! Vinyl flooring in brown, orange and that 70's yellow. We had avocado green appliances and shag carpet.

Gotta love the flashback!
