: This looks like a drive-by shot.

: I’m in love with the staircase.

: Check out those floors! WOW!

: This is probably one of the worst layouts of a kitchen I’ve ever seen. Do they have to move the microwave everytime they want to get inside the fridge or stove?

1908 Colonial, Benkelman, NE

419 4Th Avenue West, Benkelman, NE – $67,400
5 bed, 2 bath, 3234 square feet. Another house with loads of potential! I love cheap houses like this.

: Exterior needs some color!

: What a view! If this house were sitting in my town, it would have a view of rows and rows of tract housing.

: The entry…I am guessing.

: I spy something….fake.

: Hmmmm…..I don’t know what to say. The breakfast nook.

: This house would need a lot of cosmetic work. I don’t know what is up with that cabinet coming out of the ceiling but it would have to go.

: It has cabinets. And a countertop. They aren’t SO bad, just need some paint and decluttering (I know, I know, the clutter doesn’t come with the house but you can’t help but see it.)

: My mother-in-law has one of these wallpaper murals in her living room.
