It’s not a crazy decision at all. We aren’t self employed, we both make excellent salaries respectively, and built the new, big house 6 years ago. We are now looking to downsize, use the profit to pay off my student loans and our cars, which is the only debt we have, and invest what’s left over/start taking our kids on adventures now that they’re old enough to remember the adventures. Excited for you!!

If you could maybe just remove part of that boxwood hedge or maybe even have a local landscaping co familiar with them transplant portions of the boxwoods that would be amazing. It takes hundreds of years for those to get to the size yours are, so those are such a special accompaniment to the cottage 💜💜💜

So brave of you making this decision! I can’t wait to see your work on the new place, it’s going to be so beautiful! Your yard is an actual dream 🥰 We almost bought our “dream” home late last year but it was subject to sale of our house, which fell through. SUCH a blessing in disguise because I would’ve had to have been working to afford that place, and with the recent interest hikes it would’ve had to have been full time. Instead we just moved into a more modest home (but still everything we need) and I get to be home with my toddler ❤

Please check everything for mold. There are gadgets to measure spore quantities. I used to live in an old house that was just rotting from the core and I have an old house aversion ever since. Old places catch mold more than anything. And this stuff is a super health hazard, especially for children. I is often hidden behind wallpaper and the walls themselves, meaning invisible, but still very damaging.

As a lover of old quirky properties I can see the potential of your new home! If I was you I would create a bigger bathroom next to the master and only cut down the box hedges rather than remove them as they will frame the patio to keep the intimacy of the area but open it up enough so you can see the rest of the garden. Good luck, and I look forward to tuning in to see the transformation! 😊

We are making similar decisions in our life right now. We’ve had all the big and fancy and it hasn’t made our lives better. In creates a ‘need’ to continue wanting more and if you’re not careful to impress others. We’re downsizing, saving and investing in our future. And it feel so good and smart to do it. Most of our friends don’t understand. But it actually feel freeing! For us this life change came from just growing up some and maturing in our faith as well. Good luck to you!

I totally get it. My husband is fully into real estate investing as well. He has a full time job that is WFH and very flexible while I SAH. We run an airbnb out of our basement we have a long-term rental. Our house isnt huge but its 4k sq ft and its so much to clean and take care of with three kiddos (one a newborn). We joke constantly and talk seriously sometimes about finding a tiny house on land so we can use money to invest more. I love this house but if we found a smaller fixer upper on the right land, wed probably turn this into a large airbnb and move on. I love seeing others in this mindset! When the Lord works on your heart and prunes you, you have to listen. Ill be praying for your future 🙏

Where toilet is.. Walk in Shower. To let in light but still have privacy, Maybe a drain in floor ( no step in) to open it up? Put toilet where shower is... open floor more.

@@BeccaBristow LOL.. thank you! We own a vintage house too. Yes! Always a door or window where you want a wall, or a wall where you need a room! But we love it anyways! Nothing is perfectly level or modern sized, but at least you can use human hands to fix things, and are not " trapped" by the box store overlords! 🤣🤣

Are you not afraid of mold in these old houses?

We've never had issues in the 2 previous old homes we've had...honestly so many new builds that go up super fast end up having mold issues nowadays. It seems there's no way to completely be safe from it

How will you deal with all the lead paint during renovation? Or are you not living in it until you're done? I only say that because my friend is pregnant with her 3rd and her kids just tested positive for high lead because of remodeling :(

If you can't shower " head" above old tub, I assume the hang your shower curtain around tub, you might still be able to get an old telephone style hand held faucet. Drain in that floor too.. kids and water, old pipes...been there.. lol
