After three years of living in a larger, builder basic newer construction around 2400 sqft 4 bedroom 3 bathroom house, we made the decision to trade it all in for a little old fixer with only 1200 sq ft and just 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. Though we enjoyed our first house we realized what we craved was something more, which, quite ironically, translated into a lot less.
It’s always been my dream to own a little old house, so we threw caution to the wind and decided to give it a go! We became the proud owners of our little cottage bungalow in August 2014 and embarked on a new journey into downsized living. She’s a work in progress, and needs a lot of TLC, so check back often for updates as we revamp spaces and turn this old gem into the perfect little home for our family. Here are some pics of the bungalow the day we moved in:
