Limbo Is Over!!!!

Here it is, the new ‘Baker’s Nut House!’

It was built in 1943, sits on 40 acres of mostly woods and was originally a log cabin 20 feet long and 10 feet wide. It has 3 bedrooms, 1 finished bathroom, and 1 unfinished bathroom; an attached 2 car garage (which you see in the back); also an unattached 3 stall, 2 door garage 50 feet to the right. The door you see at the back of the deck (not the white one in the garage side) opens to a hall with 2 archways & 1 door that leads to the basement; the archway to the left leads to the kitchen; turn to the right and climb the stairs to a living room the size of the garage beneath it and a big bay window with a spectacular view of the woods beyond it. The walls in the kitchen & living room are all knotty pine --- awesomely beautiful.

            There’s work to be done, mostly cleaning and painting for now (it hasn’t been lived in for over 3 years); some remodeling down the road. Two bedrooms and the unfinished bathroom are upstairs; that will get finished this month. The downstairs bathroom is a converted bedroom so it’s pretty big. We plan to remodel it next summer, along with the floor in the kitchen and extending the deck around the front of the house to provide a screen room. 

            We have lots of plans for the new place and I am looking forward to working on it as well as spending a lot more time exploring our new home in the northlands of Minnesota. 

            More to come as we progress. Thanks for reading.
