We're buying a house!

It was built in the 1890s, and stands in a fairly quiet country road in a town in Southern New Hampshire.
We've been looking since I started my new job here last september, and found a few that were ok, but we kept coming back to this one.
Originally built 118 years ago or so, it was largely rebuilt in 1998.
We think this was to deal with some dry rot. While the rebuild was happening, the owners also added significantly to the rear of the building, added a Bow window, redesigned the Kitchen and made a massive Master Bedroom.
During this time, someone from the Township called on them, noted the work and took pictures. At some point in the future (when we own it) the Township may allow us to get copies of the pictures, and we'll put them up here.
However, for the time being, we'll put up pictures of the current state of the house, and the renovation as it progresses. Hope you enjoy the story!
