Our search for the perfect property started long before we moved to Oregon. We watched real estate in this area relentlessly for over a year and even traveled up to look at houses as we began to get closer to the reality of relocation. When we were finally ready to take the leap, we faced a rising market and less availability of land.
We lost out on two properties that we really wanted and suddenly, there didn't seem to be any others that met our criteria and were also in our price point. Although I loved the temporary housing we were in (It was centrally located so that I could walk/jog anywhere I needed to go and we had the best upstairs neighbors), we were starting to feel like what we wanted just wasn't out there anymore.
Then, one day I opened my Redfin app and there it was.
It was someplace I could never in my wildest dreams have imagined owning. Besides meeting our ridiculous checklist of criteria, it was GORGEOUS and so full of character and we had to have it. And lucky for us, the price was right.
Our new home, LyonWood Farm
But make no mistake, it needs some serious TLC.
We think we're up to the challenge. I guess only time will tell.
