Appx lot: 84 X 110=9240
Comments Before Drive-By: huge yard, small kitchen, smaller family room, no utility room, fireplace, deck. This one has it's yard going for it, that's about it. The small kitchen makes me want to eliminate it. I'd really need to know when it was built to consider it at all.
Comments After Drive-By: nice, but a corner lot. Easy access to Montgomery. I liked the house. The back yard was wider and short which is okay. I'm concerned about local ordinances that would disallow us from putting up a privacy fence so our back yard couldn't be seend from that one street. But the property was nice…

The huge yard makes me think twice about eliminating these, but the small FR, no utility room, and not knowing when it was built…”
* Comments After Drive-By: Nice. I don't like the brick facade, but the yard looks big, all hard wood floors inside. We'd like to see this one. Ed liked the brick. Stainless appliances are nice. New windows. Yard was nice size. Check proximity to school (what kind of school?)

* Comments After Drive-By: Empty. Ed says the yard look small, I wasn't so sure about that -either way it wasn't fenced. Outside needs a little work (loose siding, broken shutter). Ed says this one didn't jump out at him at all. I thought it was averagte. Not bad. I'd look at it.
