Chipmunk Ridge



Here one of the houses we have gone to see. It is a farm house built in 1837 set on a BEAUTIFUL 7acres. It has a good barn, chicken coop, spring house, sheds, OUTHOUSE!! LOL, Storage shelters, fenced in garden area, root cellar, etc etc etc. But it needs a lot of work inside and out. Structurally it is very sound, but needs work. So many walls are not painted (just drywall) floors need renovating, windows need replacing, siding in the back needs to be put up, some electrical updates are needed etc etc etc. This picture might look like it is in tip top condition, but it is FAR from tip top!

Hey Jamie!

I love houses that you are looking at! I don't know which one I would choose:) Are you leaning toward one or the other more?

Love,
Emma

Emma,

we think we are leaning towards the old Chipmunk Ridge farmhouse. The house needs a lot of work, but it has so much character and the land and out buildings are all ready for what we want to do. Please pray that we make the right decision though!! Its a tough choice for us!
