The peak of the roof was 42' straight up (I know because I hung on that ladder with a paintbrush tied to a broomstick to paint the peak). Good luck!

that actually sounds a bit like my first house ( i briefly had a place before moving to holland)
But it was a clusterf#ck, as i did not had time to renovate as i worked with a 300km commute, and still partied a lot... so i did not get anywhere...and ended up dumping the place unfinished, just to get rid of it while working in Holland (had trouble finding suitable work in 01 as i was still fresh, and there was that .com bubble which had tanked... also the lack of outside bugged me
This was one of the main reasons for picking this one, as it does not need renovating...has the garden, and the garage.. its' the opposite of my first house... probably because this time i actually took time to figure out what i need/want, and because i'm a bit smarter now... just a bit, not much...
