With old houses. I really really can’t help looking for them. Ever since we finished and moved from our old place, I still have a dream of finding another gem and redoing it. That then leads me to moving. And well, then I end up scanning real estate across the country. Here is a find in Kansas City – which by the way is a pretty happening place if you are looking for a little mid-western hospitality!
This place has 5 bedrooms – 8 full bathrooms – a carriage house – these incredible moldings – and a tunnel between the two buildings – all for 500k.

I think you are right about this property. Perhaps I will win the lottery…
