Bargain House Begins: Cellar

Hick has been working on Bargain House this week. He sent me another picture of the back porch area. All I notice different are little supports on the supports holding up the roof. I'm sure he's been doing more than just placing those little pieces of board, heh, heh! At least he took a few interior photos for me.


We'll start with the cellar. The entrance to it is outside the house. It's why one of the first things Hick did was get a lock to secure that door. He didn't want somebody to get in and try living in a dry area that was warm from the gas water heater, with water available.


The cellar is not an area we would ever consider "livable," but to a homeless person, it might be the Taj Mahal. For flipping purposes, it's much better than a crawlspace.


There's the precious water heater. It looks a little cramped to me, but Hick has made no mention of that being an issue, so I guess it's okay.


The furnace is in good shape, and does not need to be replaced. Here's a chest of drawers that intrigues Hick. He thinks it's probably beyond repair, but is going to see what he can do with it. He likes old things, and thinks this is old. At least he's getting it out of there. One less attraction to anybody who gets in and wants to live in the basement!

More pictures of the inside of the house will be coming, a room at a time, most likely.
