HeadExam 1,783 #1 Posted July 5, 2015 It keeps me in shape and calm to work. I brushed all the oil primer on the under hangs and fascia, then caulked the cracks and repaired some peeling wood. Two coats of satin exterior and wrought iron paint on the post in front. All this took me 10 hours total on three consecutive days. I've been painting for over 30 years, I don't practice anymore, lol 1 Triumph66 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HeadExam 1,783 #3 Posted July 5, 2015 All the exterior walls are concrete block with a brick facade, 14 inches of masonry in all. The builder of the home was the Corps of Engineers director that built the large lake a few miles away, from the look of the Corps offices and the house, I believe he purloined most of the materials and probably the labor as well. I've been here almost 20 years on a 25 year lease at 500 per month, next year I'm purchasing the 20 acres and house with the owner carrying the note and giving me a large credit on the years I've leased as a down payment, total loan should be around 150,000. 1 neil reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neil 524 #4 Posted July 7, 2015 Beautiful house that sort of place over here with twenty acres would cost around half a million quid . 1 HeadExam reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
