House for Free

Apparently the Hannah B.G. Shaw Home for the Aged in Middleboro is giving away my dream house for free. Its a mid-18th century traditional Cape-style home with three (3!!!) fireplaces, a modern kitchen, beautiful local hardwood floors---and yeah, its free---if you can move it...

Jigga whaat? you ask...

Here's the story. At home in Middleboro, the Hannah B.G. Shaw Home recently purchased land to expand their top-ranked community. But before they can start building, they need to clear out the old home standing in their way. Instead of razing it, they want to give it to anyone who will move it.

No joke.

Jeremy emailed the contact person earlier this afternoon and plans to follow-up by phone tomorrow morning. It's worth an inquiry, right? The Hannah B.G. Shaw Home said they will help defray relocation costs, so if we can find a good spot somewhere in Middleboro to place it... a job in Middleboro... a few house restoration geniuses...

Enough dreaming... just check out these pictures:

Fireplace #1... Can't you just imagine filling that bench seat with quilts, pulling one out, and reading next to the fire on a cold day? 

Kitchen: I love the dark wood floor, dark beams, and white cabinets. PS: note the stainless steel appliances...

Fireplace #2: Jeremy especially loves the pine in this room.

Fireplace #3: Beehive oven / fireplace in the kitchen!
