for serious? i mean, it's not fine classical architecture by any means, but I thought the house he posted looked quite handsome.
we are reconsidering the idea of condo fees. one point we keep coming back to is that we live in a large house with like three living rooms, two dining rooms, a foyer, four bedrooms, an office, and a family room... we only ever use the family room and one of the dining rooms, even with two dozen guests over, but we're not so sure we could get used to less space.
condos sound nice on paper, but we lived in a tiny bungalow for years that works out to be about the same square footage of many of the condos we are looking at, and we always felt like we were in each others space.... bearing in mind there are no children anymore.
is space less important to more mature families? and how do heating, and other utilities compare when you compare a house to a building of multiple units?
