One thing I really dislike about these loggias, California Rooms, etc is that it blocks the light into the house. THere's a couple of homes I have seen in TRidge with these loggias, and I imagine the CR will be the same issue- it already makes these Tuscan-inspired houses even more dark- and...

My family went today- and it was packed by noon! My kids had a lot of fun watching the conveyor belt. Very affordable too.

I think I'd go with the WB home if I had to choose. I am renting a house in WB and I understand what you are talking about with the "attached walls". It's not really attached- it's more of the "zero-lot" line you are talking about. Or the wall of the neighbor's house is essentially making up...

I really like this restaurant: <a href="http://www.royalkhyber.com/index.html">Royal Khyber</a>

Wow- March sounds a little early for me to have a cut-off, per your pediatrian's advice, but I guess, to each his own. My son turned 5 in May and just started kindergarten. I do think that CA's cutoff is too late though- December is quite late. Back in Chicago, the cutoff is August.

I personally have not been there, but have heard good things about it. <a href="http://www.thecrowbarcdm.com/index2.html">Crow Bar</a>

Do you know what 19 Wandering Rill closed for? Thanks a lot!

And guess what- the owner was a realtor.

We were in escrow on a house in NB and were still waiting for the seller's disclosures. Got the disclosures back (literally 4 days before the close- we had a 3-week closing because I wanted my daughter in the new school distrcit). When I got the disclosures, it said that there was erosion on...

I am an identical twin. We are alike in so many ways aside from the physical aspect of it. My parents will tell me we were and still are a handful- but my sister and I are truly best friends.

I know what you are talking about IHO- I don't recall getting homework until I was maybe in 4th grade (I'm 40). My daughter is now a 2nd grader at Stone Creek elementary. She was attending a Montessori through 1st grade and did get homework, but it wasn't that much- maybe 1 sheet per...

Looks like our flipper had to reduce the price today.

Thanks! How interesting on Oakley Terrace. When you mean expensive, the buyers lost the earnest money? Or can the seller cancel? What would be the consequences of that?

Thanks Irvine Realtor! I have a couple of questions- I was interested in 5542 Oakley Terrace but it had offers on it within days of listing. I don't see it on your closed sale worksheet. Did they take it off the market? Also- did 22 Trumpet Vine go to the bank? I got an email...

Garrison- I think I remember the house you are talking about. It was on Aralia and the price was around $650K

i agree- that book puts me to tears- it is so moving to me. i know i will soon be in the same situation too as my parents are 80 as well. thanks step for sharing your experience.

I don't mean nasty in terms of being a dirty, worn-down home, but it is ugly escetically. Growing up in the Chicago burbs, there are many homes like that there as well. It is really ugly to have 1/2 brick 1/2 siding (and then have most likely the siding on the side). Also, it only has a 1-car...

Gypsyuma- That is a nasty house- but it is in Newton. I lived on Newbury and Exeter back in 1996 and commuted to Wellesley Hills for my job. Although Newton isn't my cup of tea either (and neither are those style houses), it's on the Green line and great for commuters to go into Boston. I...

I believe the amount in 2009 changed from $12K to $13K- so a total of $52K is a gift

You are referring to 2808 Lighthouse Lane in CDM's Harbor View homes. I saw that house a couple of years ago when it was listed for $1.8 million or so. It is in TOTAL need of remodel. The owners want to retire to that LeisureWorld (or whatever it's called) in Laguna Hills. I went there when...
