Movin'

Yep, it is that time again. Our current landlords want to sell the apartment, and they were hoping to put it on the market before the summer, so we agreed to move prior to the end of our lease (which would have been July 1). We move in mid-April.
We found a really cute place in Torshov, which is a 10 minute walk slightly NE of work.
The only real downsides of the apartment are that it is on the fourth floor, has no tub, and smaller bedrooms. However, the exercise will be good for me, H is now old enough to conquer showers, and the main living areas in the house are a good size--we also gain a proper dining room which is nice.
We have a 3-year lease, which here means that either of us can terminate it after the first year, with 3 months' notice. So the plan is to stay here awhile until we gather enough savings to buy a place.
I think it will be a nice home.

So glad you found it without a lengthy wait. I love the windows! Where will Artist H's easel go? It appears you'll have several choices.
Be sure to send everyone your new address once you're there. (And be sure to let us know which train station is closest to the apartment. Heh-heh. Promise and threat intended.)
