Our opening offer of $37,000 was accepted on the business property. We couldn’t believe it! That is way less than you could buy even a house in poor condition. The value on the tax assessment is $47,000. Sure, it is next to a bar and has no yard. But it is over 1700 square feet inside and made of brick, so the sounds stay outside. And it has all the spaces we need. Who-hoo!
Back of the building – residential portion entrance.
Front portion of fitness studio. We’ll take out carpet and continue laminate throughout room. You can only see about 1/3 of the whole room. It will be big enough for classes of 8 – 12.
Room to become music studio. Can you see the grand piano against the far wall, your back to the window to take advantage of the light? When you look down the hallway, the bedroom is to the right, and the bathroom will be through the bedroom, in the area that is behind the door you can just see on the right side of the picture. But we don’t want our private bath to enter into the music studio. (There is another bathroom for the public in the back of the exercise room.) The existing bathroom for the back half is to the left in the hall, and that will become the walk in closet. And straight ahead will be the kitchen/dining/living area, with the back door straight ahead. So this picture was taken standing just about in the middle of the building looking north. when we close that door on the north end of the music studio, that will separate the private living area from the area for the businesses.
Realtor in one side of room to become kitchen/dining room, with living room area behind camera. It will be a small kitchen area just against the wall to the right. But that leaves room for a dining area and even for my hutch and baker’s rack. The living area will have plenty of room for the love seat and a chair or two and the piece that holds the t.v., etc.
There are also a couple of rooms between the fitness studio and the music studio that I don’t have good pictures of. One we are turning into a recording studio and the other will most likely be a waiting room. There are also two rooms to the west of the fitness studio, emptying into it. One will be the office and the other, in the front, will just be a storage area for our tubs, until we move to New Auburn. We will just keep that door always shut!!
But, you can see, there is a lot of room in this building and it is in quite nice shape. Almost move-in ready in the business portion.
Bigger picture of back of building. See – a tree! I really want to get in there and mow!
