My house.

I started by looking at apartments, but after seeing a few I just wasn't feeling it. I've always wanted a yard, more space and privacy so I thought I'd have a look what kind of houses would fit my budget and found out that by paying just a little more I could get a small one on a good location for almost the same price. Now I own a small granny cottage with a damn nice yard, well, root cellar and a sauna in a separate building aswell as a small workshop. On top of all that my mortage payments are less than what my friends are paying rent.
