2.24 acres, 2400SF 3bedrooms 3.5 bathrooms, fireplace well, septic. Master room is downstairs which bothered us. square footage is cut up poorly (alot of closet, bathroom, hallway space) so not alot of livable SF. But it was built in 2004 and is in pretty good shape for a foreclosure. We really liked the neighbors and of course this neighborhood (since we keep ending up back here) Nice level property with privacy and very easy maintenance. So, what we didnt like: not enough space (we were already bickering over where the office would go) and no garage (OUCH). Honestly, though it may seem trivial, once youve had a garage, its hard to find a place for all of those garage items that just dont seem to fit anywhere else. But, we love the area and neighbors so despite a few misgivings and with the shortcomings in mind, we made an offer. A VERY low offer. Thinking "if they accept this or even close, we can build a garage". So, the kick in the teeth, THAT night they list the house I LOVE... I went over after work the next day and sure enough, I love it as much in person as I did in pictures. SAME neighborhood (sheesh, that must be the place for us) SO, next post :) ...........................................
so the update..the other offer will get this house since we failed to respond quickly enough on whether we wanted it. Long story but for those following along this would be the 2nd time we lost a house waiting to hear on the one we love. ggrrrrrr. I hope this doesnt have the same ending.
