I'm pretty certain that if it wasn't for their divorce the previous owners would have been content to stay there and let the house collapse and rot around them. Fortunately back in the 1950's they built houses pretty well and it's all salvageable.
Except the windows and toilets, those are total junk. The windows are getting replaced tomorrow, and I've got one 5 gal/flush toilet replaced with a modern Toto and the other one will be done next week.
Hey, I will finally have room for some tools to do modest DIY repairs too. I can change my own oil at last! The small garage is going to be dedicated to bicycle parking though, so my 9-5 will continue its outside living.
