[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would open up your neighborhoods a bit more. Specifically since you have a young family I would be very careful about buying in an area like falconhurst or avenel which really don't have a lot of young families. I assume you would like your kids to have others to play with? These neighborhoods will be cheaper around 1-1.2 million but I personally think they have better family feel and are less cold.  For the record we are also a young family and live in one of the neighborhoods mentioned below and feel like the family feel is great and we have extremely friendly neighbors/neighborhood events and a great community feel.

I used to live in one of these neighborhoods and sold in the 800's. I believe the lots in all these neighborhoods are less than .50 of an acre -- more like .25 or .30 -- much less land than what the Op wants. Maybe the houses have appreciated in the last few years but I doubt that much. These neighborhoods are great (I loved living in mine) but not what the Op is looking for). I do love Country Place and the lots are bigger than Bedfordshire (some people move from Bedfordshire to CP to upgrade) but it's a longer commute than the areas around PV.[/quote]

Forgot about country place. Definitely that one too.  I know it's not the acreage the OP asked about but some are very close. Mine is just under .5 acre.  My point was that for a young family I don't think OP will be happy in the neighborhoods in the op. Also my DH commutes to DC are it takes him 35 minutes door to door. He leaves for work at 9 but he doesn't actually drive home during rush hour so that Might be why it doesn't seem so bad to him.

Also yes there are houses in those neighborhoods for 800k but there are also ones over a million. Ours was 1.1. It's 5000 sqft.
