Meet Connie and Waldo – a lovely lady who loves to quilt and her very tall (think 4 ft high) and furry dog, Waldo.
Connie often get’s the question “What’s Waldo?!” She’s not exactly sure because he is a rescue dog, but he sure is sweet. Connie and Waldo are moving to Portland in order to be closer to Connie’s daughter’s family – she will get the pleasure of helping care for her darling Granddaughter.
Connie wanted to look for a home in close in SW, Sellwood or Eastmoreland. She wanted to be close enough to her daughter’s family in Burlingame and also make sure she had plenty of space for her quilting hobby, as well as a nice yard for Waldo. Having been to a few open houses previously, Connie knew of a few homes that she liked. We spent a few nice days together seeing all of the homes on our list. After getting out-bid on a brand new listing that seemed like the perfect home, we happened upon another open house that was also a great match for Connie.
A darling bungalow with two nice bedrooms and a bathroom on the main floor, a nice kitchen with an eating nook and a lovely yard, this home also had a newly refinished basement that was exactly what Connie needed for quilting. Light is very important in Connie’s work, and this home had some natural light in the basement, along with plenty of new overhead lighting. It was perfect! This time, Connie’s offer was accepted right away and everything fell quickly into place.
Welcome to Portland Connie and Waldo!!
