As you may remember, I have been looking for a garage..er...house, for a
while. Well, my offer was accepted yesterday on a house in Hatboro, PA.
Next step is a home inspection, and if there are any problems that I don't
want to deal with, I can walk away from it.
Details: The garage is BIG. Double door, so it is technically a two car
garage, but I figure 8 Spridgets could fit easily. Nice and deep, so a
workbench will probably go against the back wall. It has a high, peaked
roof, so just maybe a lift is in my future!
Next to the garage is a shop that is almost as big as the garage. There's a
small wood burning stove in the shop, and I'm not sure I will keep it.
Apparently a previous owner used to build racing engines. The garage was the
last part of the building built and it has a nice concrete floor. The shop
has a wood floor (probably over dirt) that is completely rotten, so it will
have to be removed and a new concrete floor poured. I am concerned about
termite damage, but the home inspection will show it. All the windows in the
building were removed when they had vinyl siding installed, so ventilation is
at a premium. I will just work on the little things as I can afford them.
(Read, very slowly!)
3 bedroom house is included. If all goes well, settlement is Oct. 26. Work
parties will be arranged after the beer is delivered!!!
