Now comes a month of paperwork BS before I get to hand over a check for more than any 3 cars I have ever bought, so that I can pay yet another mortgage.

The massive garage and huge lot are going to be nice though.

Now I need to finish all the work on my current house even faster so I can sell it and not have to float two mortgages for months.

Rhode Island. It is about 6 minutes from where I live, and about 20 minutes from where my partner currently lives.

So cool! I like the yellow and white.  You must name your estate. I suggest an enthusiast theme.

My first guess was back east based on the architecture and surroundings. Beautiful spot. Congratulations.

Thanks. The first floor was clearly one a store, and it is alone in the middle of a residential neighborhood, so I’m going to write the historical society in town and see if I an find out what business was once here.

Oh hey I live  in Rhode Island. And I just bought a house! Although the first mortgage payment doesn't go through for a week so I guess I've been squatting?

Somewhere in the East Providence/Rumford area? Looks like Rumford to me, but it could just as easily be Coventry or Scituate.

Beautiful house, lots of New England charm on the outside...what’s the inside like? Anything particularly cool and oldschool?

My wife’s family lives outside of Boston (Wayland) and way up the coast in Maine. We can’t afford Boston (and too much of a hassle/crowded) and Maine is the opposite...so the Providence area is on our shortlist for if/when we decide we want to move closer to family and leave the West coast. Good to know there’s an oppo chapter out that way!

Second floor is a mostly original 192 0s apartment, which largly means hardwood floors and a terribly laid out kitchen.

First floor was a store that was partially renovated into a 1 bedroom apartment. It is a bit bland but i have ideas for improving it depending on what i find when i start digging into it.

I work in Bristol, so I spend a lot of time out that way even though I live in Warwick.
