32 Spruce Street

Not a huge lawn, not a huge house, it was understated, but thankfully quite charming. The front of the house was mostly dominated by a two car garage, the driveway really not much longer than a van could park in. The ground floor siding was painted a weathered navy color. There was an eaves over the front of it and the front stoop, and a second floor above that was a deep gray, both colors, trimmed in whitewash, made a very seaside color scheme.

Inside was a typical family floorplan, including a large living room entered in as soon as you walked through the front door, an updated kitchen, and a hardwood floored dining area and a half bath. Taking the stairs up, there was a nice, large master bedroom, and two other rooms. The garage, though wide enough to comfortably fit two cars, was actually half-repurposed to a workshop area.

Living Room:

A massive sectional wrap-around couch dominates the room, capable of enabling every position you could want to relax on its soft, plushy, gray pillows. The rug here is thick, and cushy, the type you�d love to walk barefoot across, covering most of the floorspace, hardwood seen at the edges of it. There is a fireplace, wood set beside with tinder and match ready for any occasion. A large LCD TV is mounted to the wall in the perfect position for anywhere on the couch to watch from. A coffee table is conveniently placed inside the curl of the furniture, coasters from a whole host of niche little bourbon distilleries stacked up in a holder. Strangely, there�s only a few personal touches, some photograph prints framed and hung on the wall. One is of a child in a grey sandy landscape watching a sunset. The other is of a campfire burning, the edges of its light showing the toes of boots gathered around it, the rest fading into blackness, no hint if the boots were filled or not.

Kitchen-Dining Room:

The kitchen is towards the back of the house, a doorway away from the living room. The countertops are all shiny black granite, with a nicely stained hardwood set of cabinets, complete with a large gas-burning stove in the middle of a large island that borders the dining area. The appliances are all new, with shiny silver faces, though the implements to cook with seem sparse. A simple wooden table with matching chair sits beneath a chain-hung lamp. There are no placesettings or personal touches. A sliding glass door leads to the back yard.

Master Bedroom:

The master bedroom feels mostly empty on first blush, even though it is furnished. Flanked by two curtained windows, a king size bed is centered against the wall, the frame seemingly made of thick piping, either artistic or quite literal, and quite sturdy. The linens are clean and the bed is most certainly made unless being slept in. To either side is a simple two drawer nightstand. Only the one nearest the door hosts a lamp. A dresser stands unobtrusively to one side, black-stained wood, matching the bed�s pipe color. A doorway leads into the master bath.

Master Bath:

Clean and shiny, the master bathroom would seem quite luxurious, save for the fact the lack of personalization borders on sanitation. There is a stand-up, tempered glass shower, as well as a tub built into the corner, lined in tile and large enough to fit two people comfortably, jets visible. There are two sinks on one wall, a mirror the length of the countertops extending up from the backstop to about 8 feet where the line of lights illuminate the room.

Second Bedroom:

There is, quite literally, nothing interesting in this room. Some cardboard boxes are stacked here, yet to be unpacked, probably full of clothes.

Third Bedroom:

A hardwood desk with a computer has been set up in here, the monitor mounted on a swivel arm. Some bills and organized files are contained within the drawers. A landline, office-style phone was set atop the desk, as well as a pair of speakers hooked up to the little tower. Again, there�s no decoration, the room seeming empty besides.

Garage:

A wide garage, there was only enough open floor space to park one car. One one side, a workbench stands, various mechanical pieces visible and organized, even the disassembled lock parts. Three different styles of key cutting machines are mounted here, for origination, duplication, and high-security. A large pegboard is mounted above it, tools hung from racks along the bottom and perfectly organized hooks of all manner of keys hung in rows and columns above it. A computer monitor on a swivel arm is mounted to the wall, a keyboard beneath, likely for logging and master system creation, as well as a small printer. On the far side of the garage are standing racks, rows of cardboard boxes can be seen neatly placed, various lock manufacturers' labels visible. A door leads into the kitchen of the house proper.

Basement:

The basement is largely unfinished. There are some taped-up cardboard boxes down here for storage, as well as some that are empty and broken down flat. There is a washer-dryer area with a hamper, two nicely new appliances easily available for use.

Back Yard:

Out behind the house is a modest yard, unfenced, a small and well-built wooden deck built with some new, but seemingly unused lawn furniture on it. There is a shiny silver propane grill, as well as a red and rounded charcoal grill. A shed in the back corner of the hard holds a lawn mower that looks so old it was probably left by the last owner. The yard is cut clean, though, so someone is probably paid to cut it.
