We did it! Rebekah and I found a new apartment that met *almost* all of our must haves: lots of light, great location, claw-foot tub, wood floors, lots of beautiful details like glass doorknobs, rad-covers and an amazing built in kitchen pantry, big kitchen and, most importantly, a place where we have pretty much free run -- pets and painting, here we come! There is also a really good vibe (despite the lock on the OUTSIDE of one of the rooms -- there is nothing good about that).
The one item on our wish list we don't have is outdoor space but we do have a brand new gas stove. That's what parks are for anyway!
Here are our before pictures (after the jump):

I want to come back. I love "the Gem".
