Could we be homeowners soon ??

Keep your fingers crossed -- Our realtor is presenting a contract
today on a house in Reston we really like. It is a 4 bedroom 3 1/2 bath brick and wood house that backs to the Reston Nature Preserve. It is a couple of minutes walk to 4 tennis courts (yea!) and the neighborhood pool. And the bike/running path is right across the creek in the back. The house is 1.4 miles from all three schools -- Elementary, Middle and HS.

It is a great house -- it has a sun room across the entire back and a big deck (for BBQ's).

We are going to offer a pretty aggressive offer but the couple has owned the house for 36 years and has already bought property in Sarasota, Florida -- where they plan to retire too. Jane, one of the owners, even told our wonderful realtor Bonnie, that we could have most of the furniture. They are ready to move on. :) So, we hope they take the offer --- but if they don't -- just was not meant to be.
