Well Water - Potability Tests - RI Living.  Buying real estate in an area that does not have a public water supply encompasses a significant geographic area of my RI real estate business.  So two of the water tests a home buyer needs to be aware of as part of their home inspection process are:

Price Improvement - North Kingstown RI Home for Sale- 57 Firwood Drive.

North Kingstown RI Home for Sale-57 Firwood Drive- Price Improvement. That a price improvement for this Woodland Hills home for sale has just been made to $190,000.  This is a move in ready ranch with large doorways and many amenities for any buyer.  A 3 bedroom and 1 1/2 bath home with screened in porch, garage and full downstairs with room for expansion.  Enjoy this North Kingstown neighborhood which is private and serene, close to Route 4 and just minutes from shopping and historic Wickford Village.

Let me share with you that all the major improvements in this home have been done recently from the septic, roof, windows, heating system, electrical panel and wiring, central air, new baths and more.

The ranch home for sale is a short sale with a negotiator in place to move it along.  Well worth the wait to get a quality and well built home that is move in ready!

Day and Night - Rhode Island Living.  It is Like the difference between day and night sometimes and not just in RI real estate.  When the weather changes on the East coast it changes in a big way.  On Saturday we were consumed with a huge snow storm after having not received any measurable amount of snow this winter.  The snow storm blocked many secondary roads with cars.  Unfortunately, Rhode Islanders have a lot of trouble maneuvering cars in the snow- not sure why that is.  You really do not want to be driving here during a snow storm!

Blowing and howling winds ensued and a picture of the North Kingstown waterfront showed as an ice castle landscape and the way Rhode Island living can be when wintery.

Now consider this three days later at the same location in the Mount View community of North Kingstown and the temperatures were no longer in 20 degrees.  Not at all in the Rhode Island frigid range of the 20's but in the 50 degree range (yes that is fahrenheit!).

Venturing down the drive I do for waterfront camera shots, I could not help but compare the scenic North Kingstown waterfront views on two different days.  Perhaps it has to do with the huge solar activity going on in the sun right now.  It just presented this realtor with another way to capture magnificent landscape for out of state buyers especially.

We are blessed with four unique seasons here and now we can say that rhode island living has additional seasons within its coldest season.  Today was a spectacular spring experience in January to enjoy.  It is Day and Night - Rhode Island Living.

North Kingstown RI -Poplar Point.

 

Just a bike ride over the Wickford bridge heading towards the town beach one hangs a left onto Steamboat Avenue and onto the Poplar Point peninsula.  This is another waterfront North Kingstown community that is quiet , unique and hardly a diamond in the rough!  This is a multi carat (so to speak) neighborhood that when I show real estate clients they just become enamored with its location.

Picnik will be No More- Get Ready for Picasa.  Yes, it has been announced that Picnik which is now owned by Google will be incorporated into Picasa as of April 19th!  Do I hear the Boo, Hoos out there!!?  It has been such a wonderful photoediting service to people like me who do not Photoshop.  Personally, I tried Picasa once and did not like it...now I need to grit my teeth and go back and see if they will have incorporated some of the wonderful Picnik features into it.

The good news is that from now until closing date Picnik is absolutely free for all its premium add ons!  So if you never tried it before go test the easy photo application that has so thrilled many of us. 

The premium members will be getting all their fees paid for this year back with no pro-ration either.  Some consolation for a great product that will be no more.  RIP oh wonderful Picnik...Google better rise to the challenge its users loved.  Picnik will be No More- Get Ready for Picasa.

When a Picture is worth more than a thousand words.  Yes, on a private road this waterfront Narragansett home for sale sits serenely unoccupied for the last 8 years!  It seems that another Ponzi like schemer on a smaller scale than Bernie Madoff was having the time of his life here too.  While he built 2 waterfront Narragansett RI homes, he bamboozled his financial victims out of about $1.4 billion.
