I bought a lottery ticket Wednesday night and I still haven't checked to see if it's a winner. I don't buy that many - and this was just a spur of the moment thing. Chatting with the owner and the cashier, discussing what was going on with the lending right now. I said something like ‘they are making it harder for people to buy houses ---- you almost have to win the lottery...' then I asked ‘is there a drawing tonight?' Vic said ‘yes, powerball. It draws at 11'.
I filled out a card - played 2 games actually! I totally forgot all about checking it yesterday - all day. I was having dinner with a friend last night and my palm started to itch : ) we know what that means!!
Now, before I check the numbers I am trying to decide which house will I buy, lol. Jane Page has so many beautiful listings. Everyone I see if my favorite - really. I love living in Downtown Aiken, so there are a few options for me.
Do I choose The Academy - new construction with historic charm. 3 bedroom, 2 full baths, 2 half baths,....Great horse property in Aiken's Historic District. I love everything about this house! Open, light, airy, just feels like home :) Listed at $3,880.000.
Do I choose this historic arts & crafts bungalow known as Whispering Pines? OVer 100 years old, 4 bedroom, 2 bath with guest cottage. I love the craftsman style and the downtown location of this one! Listed at 968,400.
And what about Sandhurst Estate. Over 100 years old. 11 bedrooms w/ 10 fireplaces and 10.5 bathrooms, and a barn for the horses. I love this house. The history of this property just fascinates me. Listed at $3,390.000.
And then there is this 3 bedroom brick ranch on Summerall Court. It is being sold COMPLETELY FURNISHED!! Not quite 'downtown'..but only a few short blocks away :) Listed at $354,000 includes the furniture.
Guess I better check that ticket now! I'll let you know which one I decide to buy. Maybe I will just buy all of them :)
Have a great day.
