Found a place!

Ok, for all of you who gave me advice when I was trying to decide whether to take that duplex, here is an update on my house search. :slight_smile:

We finally found a place! It is another 3-bedroom duplex, in the same town that we are in now but close to the hills. Unfortunately there are no cafes within walking distance; it’s pretty much just a residential neighborhood without any stores or businesses to speak of.

It is a block away from a small park, though, and a short drive from several parks in the hills with hiking trails.

It met our basic requirements for a place: washer/dryer, dishwasher & close to my husband’s work. It is a lot more expensive than where we are now, mainly because it’s in sort of a rich neighborhood. But there is more space, and we will have a small yard where John can grow plants, so hopefully it will work out well. The neighbors also have a 1-year-old, so maybe Eoghan can play with the neighbor.

Just thought I’d update you all!

Glad to hear it!
Still, the collective wisdom of the Chiffboard will stand by, if further consultation is required. :wink:

Good for you; bigger digs is always a plus with a baby. check your messages

Excellent! I am glad to hear the good news.

One benefit to “more expensive” is that it might be safer. Another is that it may provide a more intellectually stimulating environment for young Eoghan.

Yay! Congratulations!
