We Pet The Puppy....Again

I have one thing to say to you, Charleston Homebuyers:

STOP

BUYING

MY

BARBIE

DREAM

HOUSE
!!!!!

Seriously! I mean it! Lovey and I went to look at a beautiful marsh-front home last Saturday. Ahhhh. Beautiful. We called our realtor on Sunday and said we'd like to make an offer. At 9 Monday morning, we got the call that the home already had multiple offers on it. ARRRGGGGHHHHH! How?

Anyway, here are some pictures of the house where you will never visit me:

Here are the double front doors:



Here are the gorgeous stairs and the little foyer area I already had decorated with an antique buffet (yeah, Mom, the one I need to get out of your house). Maybe later.



To the left is the New Green Room:



which had its own private bath:



Nice, nice.



The kitchen was, of course, superb. And yes, the 6-burner gas range would cost a minimum of $5k. Look at that tilework, look at the cabinets!



The master bedroom was huge and had 3 windows facing the marsh as well as double french doors leading onto the deck. That door to the right goes to the bathroom, but let's get to The Closet, shall we?



Yeah, that wall to the right? Over 13 feet long. That's lots of hanging space. That little niche to the left? Let's picture it with floor-to-ceiling shoe shelves. I did. And there is even more hanging space behind me in the picture!!!

There are rooms upstairs ....blah, blah.....bedrooms....blah blah....bathroom.....we've seen enough of my Not House on the inside. Let's look at this:



Here are the back double decks. Which look out over this view:



The freaking view......



Not Our Freaking View though.

This Saturday, Lovey and I are going to look at two more Not Our Houses. With our luck, they'll be under contract by Thursday. Here's an idea for ya, realtors: want to sell your house reeeallll bad? Give me and my boy a call. If we like it, you are guaranteed a quick contact. For the low, low fee of $1,000 per viewing, natch.

How?

How do I not own this on video yet? Because I watch the heck out of it everytime it's on. A perfect scene from Beatiful Girls:
