As I type this, it almost feels surreal that it has all happened, and so quickly. Scott and I have moved to Fort Myers!
After living in Hollywood, Florida, just north of Miami for over 10 years in our current house, and almost 15 years in the South Florida area, we’ve decided to build a house on the other coast. Scott’s family is in Naples not too far and this area is way more affordable than Miami area which heavily swayed our decision.
If you followed me for a while you know that Scott and I put a lot of blood, sweat, and tears into our house on 1010 Tyler Street (you can see the video here of the house- I miss my kitchen!!), living through a full-blown house renovation while I was preggers!
I documented some of the renovations in my Paleo Drop Biscuits post, as well as my Winter Blues Salad, if you want to see some of the journey. The house was in need of some love and TLC when we bought it after having been a long term rental and by the time we sold, there wasn’t one part of that house we hadn’t touched.
19 acres of undeveloped land near the new solar community of Babcock Ranch, Florida.
But now we will have a clean slate for building exactly what we want which is extremely exciting! Right now, our property has nothing on it but wild hogs!
I’ve created a new Instagram handle, Bungalow2Barn, to document the adventure so be sure to follow along on this handle for real-time updates.
We’re renting a very cute mid-century mod house, right not the river, that is a great creative incubator while we work on this next chapter which will open a lot of possibilities for us in the world of cooking, outdoor entertaining and outdoor lifestyle.
Oh, and I am going to have a lot of dogs! Stay tuned!
