After worrying about selling this house for quite awhile, the process turned out to be slightly easier than we expected. We got a great agent, worked extremely hard to prep the house by packing away a lot of our stuff in the garage, staged it ourselves and manicured the yard. After all of that work, and the amazing pictures that were taken, it went on the market and got three offers after only two days. It passed the housing inspection and now we are just pending until the closing date June 6. So - all is good on that front. But, we will be homeless in about a month and haven't found the right house yet in the Shoreline/Lake Forest Park area. Wish us luck! We might be living at the cabin all summer...
We are going to miss living here. It has been a wonderful home for us for the past 10 years. We've started our family here and will have fond memories always. We also have some terrific neighbors that we will miss, especially Marlene. Johanna grew up in this house and it will feel strange to not have it in the family anymore. But the people buying it wrote us a lovely letter about how they fell in love with it when they toured it. So it sounds like it will be starting a fruitful new chapter of its life.
