We've found a new home!

[bluespirit]

Woohoo!  After several months of looking (& getting fairly disheartened) we've finally found a really lovely bungalow & they've accepted our offer!
The legal wheels are now in motion (we got a huge pile of documents to read, fill in & return this morning) & hopefully things will run fairly smoothly & we should be moving in a couple of months. *fc*

The property is being flipped by a developer, & so everything has been refurbished - new wiring, plaster, windows, doors, bathroom, kitchen, boiler, central heating - it's like a brand new home. I'm actually so relieved as I really didn't fancy taking on any big reno projects. *g*
It's in a really pretty village that is a little farther out into the countryside than where we are now, & there are lots of lovely walks for us to explore with Bud.  We really love where we live now, & so it had to be the 'right' place to tempt us to leave.  And being on one level means no more stairs for Bud to climb! Yay!

I know that nothing is definite until the contracts are exchanged, etc, but I'm so happy about this! \o/

I love that you chose a home with Bud's ability to climb stairs in mind. :-)

Bud's the reason that we're moving now rather than later, to be honest. He's 10 now & still very active, but he does have a touch of arthritis in his hips & I don't want to get to the point where he can't climb the stairs. (He sleeps in our room & would be distraught if he couldn't get upstairs.) So, of course - we're moving house! *g*
