No sink. There is nowhere for a washing machine, the basin on the left of the garden photo is for washing clothes. The only water in the house is a single ball valve through the wall into the kitchen sink. Cold only. The electricity is 15 amp and light. It has no gas, I think she cooked either on a wood stove (!!!) or on bottled gas, this I think is unlikely, but possible.<br /><br />SO, <br /><br />The bathroom and mechanical installations would all be brand new. There would be three bedrooms, at this point we would not be putting a second bathroom upstairs as the bedrooms are so nice and I would have to think about that pretty hard before going any further.<br /><br />The roof needs a whole bunch of work. <br /><br />We will be low-balling the offer and if we get it, we will not be land tycoons, we would sell in TO.<br /><br />Fingers crossed for the decent shower.<br /><br />I love the house in many ways, it will be a LOT of work, and could be quite lovely.<br /><br />However I can also let it go. Seems a bit like a destiny thing...if we get it, well, it was meant to be, if not, well, not.orenetahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10616103982088424715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8311151968716514867.post-485843793966949522009-06-18T13:47:59.966-07:002009-06-18T13:47:59.966-07:00FABULOUS.
