Here's the exterior:

Here's the kitchen and dinette area:

The door from the dinette leads out onto the patio.

Living room, looking through past the stairs to the dining room:

The den, which will be my office/computer area:

The interior pictures were turning out kinda crappy, so I didn't take that many, except of things I wanted to remember about the room layouts and such. It would all just be pics of empty rooms that look basically the same, lol.

One thing I didn't get a pic of was the windows in the living room, it's a three window deal like in the master BR but it's a bay window thingie so there is a nice ledge about 12", maybe 15" deep. Will make a perfect place for future adopted kitties to sun themselves and have fun knocking over whatever knick-knacks I sit up there. AND YES I WILL GET SOME KITTIES EVENTUALLY and then I will start posting pictures of them so my sad misuse of the interwebs for other, less noble purposes can come to an end.

Regarding the inspection everything went well, only a couple of minor repairs to be made, a couple of things that the condo association needs to know about and take care of, some concern about the age of the water heater and heat pump - which I will compare with what the listing says to make sure there was no false indication of newer equipment - but they are all still working fine, it's just a matter of knowing that they may need to be replaced sooner rather than later. The humidifier needs to be looked at and probably cleaned.

The dishwasher doesn't work at all, but that's not an essential appliance and I'll talk to the realtor about working something out to compensate for that since it was included in the sale as a functioning appliance.

Oh and you will notice in the pic of the back of the unit there is a thing to put a decorative flag in, over to the right of the garage door. I've seen a lot of college flags flown from those things in the neighborhood, we see a lot of Ohio State and Miami and UC flags hereabouts. I'm now wondering if it's at all possible to get a flag with the College of Winterhold emblem on it, because I think that would be hilarious if a neighbor ever asked about it.

Oh wow!

I'm green with envy. Or maybe the gomboo, but that's not important right now. This is so cool.

Google and you shall receive:

Sadly, now that I look at it, people probably wouldn't ask - they'd just assume I belonged to some bizarre pagan cult and keep their distance. Which... you know... might actually be a bonus to having it.

[Sailor Steve]

Cool. I wouldn't have had a clue. Actually I still don't. That's nothing new.

A small FYI...
Condos usually contain four abodes in one building.

Wait, I thought she was German.

Now that I think about it, I have no idea why.

Because my user name is "Frau Kaleun" and my rank is "Valkyrie"? Those would be pretty good reasons.

Wouldn't that be walküre?

That's a great looking place frau. Congrats and many years of comfy livin'.

I seem to recall you had one once, but then for some reason you decided to fill it up with all your spare criminals.

I looked into that and unfortunately my first choice of "wretched hive of scum and villainy" is expressly forbidden by the HOA by-laws. So I guess I'll have to think of something else.

Needs furniture.

So, that means meth lab is off the table?
