One Milion Dollar Estate Sale

 My latest estate sale was at this house. 

It's a 4 bedroom, 5 bathroom, 5,500 sq foot house that recently sold for one million dollars. 

I took this picture as we were leaving. See the line? Guys, I broke my estate sale code and stood in a line to get into this sale! If I was alone I would have just driven by, but I was with my friend and she really wanted to go inside! So, we waited about 1/2 hour which I guess wasn't that bad. 

Unfortunately, I only got a few pictures of inside the house.  

This was part of the kitchen

It was nice and bigger than it looks in the picture. Could use painting though. 

This is the view of the family room from the top of the stairs. 

This was the entrance to the basement. 

There was one of two laundry rooms to the left. The other one was upstairs outside the master bedroom. 

Someone knocked down a bunch of Fiesta ware. 

The basement was enormous! 

There was a ton of furniture and big fireplace! 

My favorite part of the house was the attic!

The entrance was through the master bedroom closet which was unusual but actually pretty cool! This is only half of it! I would love to have all that storage! 

There were a few nice things.

This little tea pot was so cute.

It was priced at $16. Everything was 50% off so $8

This very tarnished silver tea set. 

It was marked $50. 

This crystal lamp was so pretty!

There was no price on it. 

I did not buy anything at this sale. My friend bought a small crystal pitcher for $6. 

Well, it was fun to look at this house. The reason it sold for so much is because it's in Northville and in a very desirable area! Do I think the house was worth $1,000,000? No.

And also reinforces my opinion that there is no estate sale worth standing in line for! 

I will be back in a few days with another estate sale, and this one was much better and I got some real bargains!

Until the next time take care and thanks for reading!

Nice House Estate Sale

The next estate sale I went to was at this house. 

This is a 4 bedroom 3.5 bath Tudor that is 3.013 sq feet. It was for sale for a mere $750,000!

Its a nice house but give me a break! 

I took a few more pictures of this house than I normally do because it really was nice inside. 

This is the family room. 

It was huge! 

Here's the kitchen. 

The one side was open to the family room. 

This is the basement. 

One area was a mirrored exercise room with all sorts of equipment. You can see my reflection in the mirror taking the picture! 

This was the other end of the basement. 

This was the only shot I got of the master bedroom.

It was huge with big windows. I like the contrast of the blue painted walls and the wood trim. 

 

This was the living room going into the dining area. One of the workers was taking a break apparently!

This was looking down to the front foyer. 

I love me a curved staircase. 

Here are a few things for sale. It was the first day so no discounts. 

These Christmas plates were cute. 

They were $10 for a set of 3

I liked this mitten platter. 

It was $5

These trees were so cute! 

They were $5 each. If I was still collecting trees I would have bought them!

This was kind of odd. They were just a little smaller than life-size, 

I guess that's Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis, Jr. $180 for all three of them!

I liked this wall hanging. 

It was $20

This was a box of nail polishes. 

It was $20 for all of them. The bottles were only about an inch big but there was a great variety of colors! 

I liked this little side table. 

It was priced $45

Here's a vintage Coach bag. 

It was $80. I don't really care for the style though. 

Of course, there was a Kitchen Aid mixer. 

It was $250 and the food processor was $150. 

I liked this shelf. 

and this shelf

$40 and $60. I liked both of them but do I really need more scrolly things to clean? 

No, I do not! Besides, I don't have anywhere to put them. 

I did not buy anything at this sale. I intended to go back the next day to see if the nail polishes were still there but I didn't get the chance. 

I snapped this picture of the house across the street as I was leaving. 

That's all for now. 

Until the next time take care and thanks for reading!

Old House Estate Sale

 My next estate sale to show you was at this house.

This house is in the Northville Historic District and it was built in 1919. It has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom and is 1,650 sq ft. It's for sale for $441,800. 

I would think that whoever bought this house would want to tear it down and build a new one. If so, that is a ton of money to pay for the tiny lot it's on.  

Maybe Northville won't let that happen because of the area it's in but considering all of the old houses that have already been torn down in Northville, and Plymouth, too, probably they would allow it. More tax money for them! 

Anyway, here is the living room. 

That room was way too dark! For sure if I bought this house those red walls would have to go! 

Here's the kitchen and dining area

Nice and bright compared to the living room! 

Here's the yard and the back of the house. 

Yeah, that garage could use some work!!!

It had a nice, big deck and lots of windows going into the dining area!

The house was full of creepy things and Halloween decorations. I took a few pictures to show Rich but I am not going to put any of them on this post. I deleted them off of my phone. 

There was plenty of nice things also. 

This clock in some fake books was different. 

They were asking $18. 

I kind of liked this vase with the vine and glass grapes hanging off of it.  

It was $35

I liked this little bag. 

It was $5. I have no use for it though. 

I really liked this box. 

It was filled with pens and pencils and markers. They were asking $15

Back in the day portraits with oval frames were popular. 

I think there were a few in my family of great grandparents. $40

I loved this stuffed doggie! 

I gave him a scritch on his head as I walked by! $15

I kind of liked this box too!

They were only asking $8 for it. I passed. How many boxes does one need? 

More Madame Alexander dolls! 

They were not priced. 

There was a large raven statue in the backyard. 

It kind of went with the rest of the creepy stuff in the house but a raven is one of God's creations, so I included him! $75

There was a set of beautiful dishes. 

They were Royal Albert and $350 for the set. 

This soup tureen was so pretty, too! 

I like the design on the inside It was priced at $26

This tea set was nice. 

It was $100

There was a kitchen aid mixer of course! 

It was $135. Not a bad price I thought.

This silver butter dish was nice. 

It was $18.

Here's what I bought at this sale. 

This knife is super sharp. I tested it on a piece of paper before I bought it. 

Total spent: $4

After scrubbing and sterilizing it in the dishwasher I used it to cut up some vegetables and oh my, I did not realize how dull my other kitchen knives were!

I have another estate sale to share if you guy aren't sick of seeing them so I'll be back in a few days with that one. 

Until then take care and thanks for reading!
