so, Monday at 8am I meet the contractor, Paul, and our plumber - because the first big problem we need to fix is the heating system. Let me explain...
When houses in the frozen North East US are vacated for any length of time, they have to be 'winterized' - which means drained of water and with electricity switched off - so that nothing untoward happens. Well, this property has been empty for at least a year but was not winterized, and so the unthinkable happened - the water in the pipes and radiators froze and they all (slowly) exploded!
Ok, here are the first two "inside" looks at the house. In them, you'll see 1) me standing in the kitchen (a Gourmet kitchen with a massive local granite countertop, of which more later) and 2) the lovely Dining Room window and seat, one of the features that made this house stand out from the many we saw all over Hillsborough County.
of course it has to be a local granite counter-top. just dreamy.
