I just received a call from Sarasota. We were approved for that house that we've been hoping for. It's not the biggest or newest or even the nicest of all the houses we saw in our price range (we're renting), but it was our favorite nonetheless!
In spite of its small stature, the house seems more functional than the others. It has an extra room that will serve well as a schoolroom and office combo. There's a sliding glass door in the kitchen that opens to a patio with an awning, where we could eat many of our meals (I really like the idea of eating outside whenever possible). There's a nice side shed in the back yard that can house our gardening supplies, lawn mower and power tools.
But best of all is the garage in the back yard. It's about 1200 square feet with a 10-foot ceiling. Have a look.
****I can't figure out how to insert the picture. The menu that I'm used to seeing is not here*****
The stuff obviously belongs to the current tenant. The side you can't see is lined with a countertop and cabinets. I'm thinking this would be a great art center for the kids. Just put a few bar stools, and they can create when the mood strikes. We envision this space as home to all of our aquarium animals, a space for the kids' toys, a comfy corner for Matthew's music set-up (he and our friend Tony, who lives just a few houses away from this one, can jam there!), and a small woodshop for Matt. This space sold us on the house! Now we just have to wait for Matt's gutter machine to sell and to receive enough money to make the trip!
