There were no pictures of the backyard or other bedrooms/bathrooms, so this would definitely be one we'd need to stop by and tour before considering it any further. But I like it in general! :) What do y'all think?

My only question is why there are no photos of bedrooms. A little suspicious to me. Other then that it is cute!

I think you should figure out how much it would cost to put in hard wood floors in an entire house and add that to your budget. I would prefer all wood, too, but (and I'm not looking like you are) I don't think there are many homes out there that have all wood.

I enjoy this blog - it's full of such good ideas!
