Just put my first bid on a house! Pics!

[Bradster]

After three years of looking my wife and I think we have found the right house for us. We are first time buyers, just rented up to this point. We are both really excited. I lived in Amish country my whole life. I’ve enjoyed renting close to town around town for the convince. It’s been an experience but ultimately if I’m going to buy something it has to be on a wooded lot. It’s a 20min drive for both of us to work from here. Little further then we wanted but this is as good as it gets. The place is perfectly sound. I would like to replace the garage door to something a bit more current. Mostly to help keep moisture out since I’ll be putting my El Camino and Bike in there.

If we get this place it’s a 3 bedroom like we wanted. We have no kids thus we both get our own “play” room. I will finally have a room to deck out with computer hobby. I’m open to suggestions from you guys on what kind of desk setup I should do. Custom build is what I’ll most likely be doing. Sadly they did not post pictures of the computer room on the site. I’ll let you guys know the status. I’ll post pics of the bare computer room and hopefully you can suggest something.

The Dadster approves had the realtor take us thru on Saturday to get his input. Before the bid is sent, they are finishing up an old easement arrangement. The house shares a road, need the deeds updated to state both houses are to contribute evenly for repairs etc, just a precaution.
The computer room has is a walk in closet. I could put the machines back there, and then just drill a hole for the cables in to the closet area making it nice and clean. However the closet is very narrow, so to reboot or do anything back there would be a pain in the rear. Not sure how to use that space yet. By putting them back there it would keep the heat down considerable. However not having the boxes on display may take away from its pimpness XD.

Over 2000 square foot farm house 1.5 acres. 3 Bed, 2 baths. Really high school taxes XD
I haven’t mowed a lawn in 7 years. going to need a riding mower for this guy. She already told me it's my job lol.

Another thing when buying a house in a setting like this in this area, most do not have high speed internet. This has both cable and Fiber. We've liked a few houses but turned them down because of the internet factor.


Any rate here’s the place

Looks nice. I don't like how the stove is separated though, I'd rather have it next to the sink.

Even if you tuck the computers away, the heat has to go somewhere. Either into the room (to be conditioned) or outside (cheaper but you do lose conditioned air as it has to come from somewhere).

Same here, It is kinda odd. I think a stove used to be on the side. This one is gas, somehow I think they had no choice but to put it there because of the gas line (guessing).

True. I don't think i'll be required to pipe the heat outside, a single window unit AC should do the trick.

If and when this deal goes down, think you may have some time too take a look at some pics and figure out how to "Pimp my computer room". We’ve always had similar tastes when it comes to nerd rage, I’d really appreciate your input when the times comes

Looks great Bradster congratz!

House buying is not simple and have to make sure you know what your getting into and that both you and your family will like the place. Since your married I am sure the wife approved or else you would not be getting it lol.

Have fun in your new place, set up your wow and 5 box!

Post some picks of your set up once you get it in there.

I would be happy to Brad. I just finished running 6x 20 amp lines and all new cat 6 wiring to my new mancave. 600 sq ft just for my new setup..... should be... pretty impressive. It was the only unfinished space in the house and made it so much easier to run all of the wiring. Just let me know your budget and I would be happy to give some suggestions.
