This house is perfect for us!! I've been on a pretty crazy house hunt the past few months and when I am on a mission to find something great for a great price- I become a little obsessed! I found this place on Monday and had our application sent in by that evening. We went down to Dayton yesterday and the owners called us today with the fab news: We got the house!! The rent fits within the military housing stipend- and leaves enough leftover to cover utilities- which was our goal in the hunt.
It's only 8 minutes away from the most amazing YMCA ever! and that Y just happens to be right next to Meijer!! and the church is just another mile down the road from that. We are just around the corner from a huge park with playgrounds and a free splash pad. Plus- the neighborhood has a pool!!! Kent's time will be split between Dayton Children's hospital and the Base hospital and the house sits right between the two!
The only thing that stresses me out is FILLING the house. It gives us so much more space than our now cramped apartment- but we don't have enough stuff to fill that many rooms.
We are definitely going to need a lawn mower!
and one of the rooms makes a perfect study/nursery.
On the main floor you've got the kitchen which I LOVE! It's so nice and bright and OPEN. The island stays- but we'll need stools!

Let me be the first to say "Congrats to you guys!!!"..the house looks awesome and perfect for your family. What a ton of space and the yard is wonderful for the those boys! Looks like the prayers were answered. Believe me, you will find "stuff" to fill in the blanks. Think of all the great yard sales to hunt and find great buys. Good job!
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!! (How's that for exclamation points?! :) Thats super exciting that you guys got the house! Just what kind of square footage is that house anyway?! It's looks HUGE! The kitchen is amazing! The whole house seems bright and cheerful. I hope you guys are out celebrating right now that it's yours!
Looks great! It kind of looks like a Kettering neighborhood--am I right? Where exactly is it, and what ward will you be in?
congrats on getting the place! Don't worry too much about filling it, we'll come down to visit and take up any extra space! :>
YAY!!!!!!!!! Congrats! That looks wonderful!!
Wow! It looks amazing! The back yard area looks great (from what I could see) for your kids!
Congrats Leisy!! So glad to hear you guys got the house. It sounds perfect!! Extra space is a good excuse to save up for nice furniture.
That looks amazing! Congrats on finding such a wonderful place!
It looks amazing! Perfect in so many ways. If you want any details on your $$$ (I'm assuming its the same amount as us) then shoot me an email. Taxes take out lots more than we expected...but there's still plenty...just a head's up. And we moved our own stuff and made a bunch of money. Have you looked into that?
Hooray!! This house looks amazing and just perfect! I'm so excited for you guys!! I can't wait to come and visit! You are going to have tons of room. Your boys are going to be in heaven...especially with that basement! Congrats!
So glad that things are falling into place perfectly for you guys. It looks fantastic!
