Ever have the urge to move? Usually I don't, because there is just too much to pack. Of course we all know the good strong boxes are at the local liquor store, but I can't afford to have my Brothers or Sisters see me coming out of those establishments!
However, I am very tempted to move. I found a wonderful home in Virginia last month. Seeing it from afar was quite breathtaking - to plagiarize my favorite movie "I don't know when I've seen a house more happily situated!"
The closer we got, the more excited I became...
Isn't it beautiful?
The horse and buggy (I mean car) can swing right up to the front entrance.
I think this staircase just screams "WELCOME".
I love a house with pillars.
Wouldn't you love to ring the doorbell and have my butler see you in?
This was actually an old southern mansion - yes, there were slaves here at one time. I could be a slave in that house and live quite nicely!
The views from the inside were absolutely stunning! We couldn't take any pictures of the house inside, but it sure had a lot of character - fireplaces galore and lots of detailed wood trim.
I imagined Mr. Darcy in each and every room!!
Maybe the yard needs a little TLC. But I love the white fence.
Well, all good things must come to an end.
There was one drawback - the house was not on a lake.
In fact, I didn't see water anywhere (except for my drool)!
Guess I won't be making a run to the liquor store any time soon.
