^ Tell me what you think of this house

[steph96]

I'm not sure what I think about this house. It definitely needs some work and tons of paint. I like it, but there is something weird about it that I can't pinpoint. One thing that seems odd is that there are 2 living areas and one of them seems to be right off of the kitchen.

what stands out to me is the big "Verizon check marks" on the front of the house

i think it looks messy- so it's hard to tell what the rooms would be good for with your own stuff -- but shit, for 99K, it's hard for me to NOT like the house- b/c here it would be about 500K.

Living areas off of an open kitchen are pretty common around here. It's nice for entertaining/hanging out with a big group.

And I agree that the roof line on the front of the house is really weird. I've never seen anything like that.

The rooms are really small. In one pic it looks like there is barely room to walk around the end of the bed. And that living area has the TV mounted on the wall which is fine. But it looks like there wouldn't be room for any kind of TV stand anyway.

But overall, not bad for $99,000.

I think the outside has an odd shape. The colors inside and the mess makes it hard to figure out. It looks nice though.

I think it's nice, especially for the price. The one thing that bothers me is the proximity to the neighbor's house. We are willing to pay extra for some extra land and privacy. If that's not a high priority to you I say go for it. I did notice it's a short sale. Not sure how those work in your area, but in my area people tend to put in offers on short sales and if it takes too long or something better comes along, they walk. Short sales around here can take anywhere from 3-8 months from offer to close.

Like a living room and a family room? That's pretty normal around here. Family room off the kitchen, I mean.

Signed, someone who doesn't actually have a family room, but was never allowed in snooty aunt's living room as a kid.

ETA: I really like the asymmetry of the facade, but I'd like it better if the inside was cathedral ceilings. I didn't notice those in the pics, though.

The roof line bugs me. I can't get past the crazy clutter to get a sense of room size and flow. It decidedly needs a new paint job.
