We got the perfect flat...
We got the place we really wanted!!! :)
Actually, we got all three places we applied for, thanks to B's stellar credit rating and high income, oh, and our charming, polite & friendly personalities helped too.
Pictures to come later, I need to upload some.
It is approx. 1800 sqare feet, corner 2nd floor flat, 4 sets of huge bay windows, 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom, huge office for B, beautiful living room, big kitchen with a brand new stove (and soon to be awesome new refridgerator that B is going to buy us), hardwood floors throughout, long hallway, storage nooks & crannies and even a utility room (which is big enough for the sleek new washer & dryer we picked out & a craft table/shelving for me). Oh, and the best part, it come with garage parking!!! So hard to find in Noe Valley where our home is! There is a store downstairs that sells various things you might need in a jam, as well as Racer 5 Beer, one of our favorites that is usually only found at places like Wholefoods.
We are only 2 miles away from Danielley's school too! :)
I could go on & on about how perfect and wonderful this place is, how easy it was to find the right place (we only viewed 3 flats - this was our 2nd apointment) and how ecstatic the three of us are, but I overdid it today and am paying dearly for it tonight.
Thanks to everyone for all the wishes of good luck and positivity, it sure helped.
I am flying up next week, probably Thursday, to get the ball rolling. Danielley will follow me the following week, on the 12th. And, B will be up a week or two after that. Then our happy home will be complete.
Oh yeah, I will miss everyone, but we have plenty of room for guests! :)
