And theres a big old electric organ in the foyer! It's a quiet one way street, and shady. Only one other tenant in the house, and she and her man have been there 18 years.

....I'm kind of stoked.

Woot! Way to go Jim.

So...party at Jim's gaff then.

I'll bring the Wild Turkey and fine pot, who's bringing the powder?

I LOVE that house! Look at that porch!

That's going to be so nice to sit on in the evening drinking a cold one when the weather warms up.

Seriously, that's beautiful.

I know, so lovely. If I had that porch I'd sit on it and pretend I was in True blood...

I'ma coming to the housewarming too!

Can't bring cleavage or powder, but I'll do cookies and smiles.
[Hsssst - don't invite Lola or I'll be redundant]

Oh that's so mean.
Okay, I'll bring spotted dick and steak & kidney pudding instead.

PS - looks wonderful.

I love it. Is it the Halloween house?

Yeah, that front porch and a fireplace, and an eat-in chicken...wow.

I would sit on the porch when storms rolled in, like mom and I used to do. Ooooh ooooh...are you allowed to put up a porch swing? Sigh...sit in the swing reading.

I've always dreamed of having a big shady porch like that. Enjoy it!

The corner on the right side...is that the living room? Is that room shaped like that too?

Do you know when the house was built?

(My friends have a small place in a house built in 1873. The woodwork is amazing. There's a closet that USED to house a murphy bed. I'd so put a murphy bed in, so I could be like Caroline on 2 Broke Girls.)

Merchantville. Haddonfield is 15 minutes away. This place is 1/4 mile west of the Chery Hill Mall.

Yes, shaw, the living room is in front on the right. Theres a big working fireplace in that room.

I just realized that there was no dish washer.... meh

Yeah, I can't wait to get altituded and sit on that porch and strum my guitar.

Yay!

Looks great ... but what the heck is a mudroom?

Beautiful house, Jim! Love the porch. Those older houses are magnificent.
I'll bring creme de menthe bars to the housewarming.
