The Great House Hunt '09 - Phase II

In a nutshell, the home I was planning on buying did not meet the standards for the FHA loan I was using. And it all fell through. Bah!

So, I'm starting all over. And the Great House Hunt '09 is officially back on. I am putting it out there: I am going to find the perfect home. Either an adorable little bungalow in the East Bay. Or a hot shot new condo in the city. Period. Done.

Here we go: Part 10...

Type:
Bungalow
Hood: North Berkeley
BR/BA: 2/1
(+): Nice neighborhood. Good price. 2 BR that can possibly be 3 BR's. Sweet backyard.
(-): The other houses on the street aren't really "kept up". The kitchen is not updated. Just in pictures, it looks a little dark.

I'm going to check this one out on Saturday, but until then, here are some photos:

I love red doors for some reason. I think the front yard could use some trimming!


The backyard is a nice size. Cute. No grass, though.


The bedrooms are a decent size. And the hardwood floors are original.


Umm...the kitchen needs some work...but nice size


I can't help but feel a little disappointed that I didn't get my first choice home. I have to try and let it go and move on. That said, I'm pretty sure this isn't "the one". Next.
