Baton Rouge Real Estate/ The Grinch Tree!

Filed under: A Day In The Life of a Realtor — forsalebylindsay @ 3:52 pm

I’m so excited about the house I just listed. They owners are so pleasant to work with and the house is going to be a goner. It’s right off of Tiger Bend road. It’s perfect for a starter home. I think it’s so cozy. The neatest thing (that doesn’t come with the house) is the Christmas tree. Have you ever seen an upside down Christmas tree? It was the craziest thing I’ve ever seen.  I think it was a spin off of “The Grinch That Stole Christmas”. They had it decorated with grinch ornaments, and the presents were actually on top of the tree. I had never seen anything like it. If I hadn’t of already bought my tree and decorated it, I would have gotten this one.

Speaking of Christmas, I can’t believe it’s just around the corner. I had my tree up before Thanksgiving and had all my shopping done the same day. I’m such a nerd when it comes to that.  I really don’t like waiting last minute. It’s so chaotic. So, I do a lot of my shopping way before Christmas, that way I don’t even have to think about going to the mall. I actually tried to go to the mall today to get my son’s picture taken with Santa. Bad idea. Everyone and their mother were there. Actually, there were two schools there waiting in line for Santa. I’m thinking…uh, I’ll come back next year. It was a two hour wait.

Back to the house. The house has 3 bedrooms and two bath. It has a fireplace and all surround sound. The kitchen is the cutest with ceramic tile and crown molding. The owners have taken such good care of it. Why are they moving? I’m glad you asked. haha They are wanting to build. Did I mention that there was a flat screen tv in the bathroom? I was so jealous. So, you can actually lay in the tub, fill it with bath bubbles and watch Oprah. Okay, you don’t “have” to watch Oprah but it does seem very relaxing.

The house is going for $199,000. We are having an open house this Sunday from 2-4. I thought it would be a great idea to have a gift basket drawing. People love free stuff. I love free stuff. lol I might put my own name in the bowl. Well, that’s enough for now. I’ll keep things up to date as far as the listing goes.
