Our New House

So as we mentioned previously, the Dubows are becoming are becoming major real estate players in New England.  You can't swing a dead cat in Merrimack Valley without hitting a piece of property owned by the Dubows.  So anyway, we moved into our new house the other weekend and have been very busy unpacking, hanging pictures, arranging furniture, etc.   Here are a few fun facts on the new house.
  • It is really old.  It was built in 1897 (we think).  The age definitely gives it some character with some neat features. 
 
  • We have a curved wall.  Did you know this is to keep the ghosts from hiding.  Apparently they only hide behind corners, so if you have a curved wall, they won't be able to hide.  Because of this we won't have to call the ghost busters crew that hangs out in the parking lot of our new grocery store. 
  • The oldness of the house also means we have a creepy dahmer like basement.  Stone walls, dirt flow, limited lighting.  I think I found a femur down there.  Tillie loved it.

Your new house DEFINITELY has a lot of character! I had to giggle a little at the Ghostbusters van outside the house. At the very least, you’ll have some very interesting stories to tell about your new house! Glad to hear you’re done with the moving and settling in part!

Cool new home you got there! The fact that it’s quite old is what makes it interesting. Have you ever found out the history of the home? That basement is creepy in an alluring way! I bet Halloween was pretty fun with the knowledge of that basement! Haha!
