A few years ago, I lived in a third-floor walk up that was situated above a used book store. It had many hidden alcoves, a beautiful kitchen, lots of sunlight. I could go on and on. I classified the apartment as "so me" and I always looked forward to coming home.

For cost-saving reasons, my boyfriend and I decided to move in together into a slightly larger home not too far away. The change was extremely difficult for me, as I felt my apartment was an extension of myself. As a result, the move truly made me evaluate what is worth compromising in relationships. I spent my last night in the apartment (sans furniture) crying for what I was losing - and for what the space had offered me.

My boyfriend (who is now my husband) and I had a few rough months after that, but it all worked out. I am still grateful for that beautiful space and will remember it always.

I LOVE the brick walls and shower. This apartment is beautiful!
