I can’t believe I’ve kept this flat a secret from ~online~ since March, but somehow I managed it.
I’ve never been a tremendously superstitious person, but this was one of those things that I wanted to wait for a little awhile before saying anything.
So now that I’m breathing in that new space and I’m fairly confident no one is going to take my keys away… I’ll say it again.
We bought a flat!
You may have already spied the news over on my Instagram this week, but I wanted to update the blog as well. It’s been hard to juggle traveling back to America this summer with the purchase but in the end, we got it.
I fell in love with our new home in March just before we moved from our London home. Joe and I have started looking online (and like any good in-laws – mine were looking for us too). And they found it. They found our perfect home. It’s full of character and charm with enough modern quirks that suit our needs and our style. I’m forever grateful to them for spotting this listing.
And then we viewed it. On a particularly snowy trip down from London we visited the flat in all it’s glory. An incredibly chilled, cloudy day just bursting at the seams to storm.
We fell in love.
It was the first “to buy” property that we viewed. Sensibly, we looked at a few others that week before saying… you know what? This is the one.
And is really is.
Fast-forward a few months later – we closed on the flat in the middle of July (while we were away in the states). When we got back this week, we jumped headfirst into organizing and getting stuck into our new home.
Because that’s what this is now. Our flat. Our very own home.
One we can build together, alongside numerous furniture sets.
