Things around here have been on hold lately in the “decoration,” “remodel,” and a “fix-things” way due to an uncertainty of where we’ll be in the next year or so. My husband is on the search for a position in academia which could take us anywhere in the world. However we’d like to remain in the U.S. (to be within an easier distance to family.) This Fall he’ll hopefully land a dream job in a place where we can raise a family and be happy. We love Durham, so it’s a possibility we could stay here. Our current house, a mere 1,495 square feet is quickly closing in on us with three kids. So I’m dreaming of what style our next house will be.
Do we go with what we find really convenient with lots of masculine style, a one story mid-century modern ranch like this:
A cute two story shingle style house with a wrap around porch:
A modern country house with lots of open windows in a beautiful setting with lots of space between neighbors:
Or a Victorian row house in the heart of the city close to shopping and fun, but not much outdoor space for the kids:
We’ll see what the year has in store for us. Once Joe lands a great job, the real house hunt will begin I suppose. Until then, I’ll keep dreaming about all these beautiful houses.
