[quote=Anonymous]I really, really dislike that the entire backyard and sideyard are paved. I also can't stand that there isn't a single tree in the entire yard. They don't have a small yard by any means (0.39 acres), but I hate what they've done with it and it would be expensive to change it. You know all that pavement with no shade is baking hot in summer. Even given these are all downsides they should have at least powerwashed the pavers so they look new - the mildew plus the color of the pavers all look very dated.

Plus if you look at the climate risks it has a major flood factor 6/10). All that pavement is just going to make any tendency to flood much worse. I would definitely look into any flooding history and damage if considering this house.

Added to this, it's on a busy road and has had a weird hybrid renovation that looks hyper modern in some areas with the white paint/black trim and modern fixtures mixed in with grecian columns everywhere on the main floor, a closed layout, a tiny master BR closet and ensuite, and that weird "cedar closet" that looks like it has 5ft high ceilings that isn't going to make up for the lack of real closet space. And ugh, those 1970s columns on the front of the house. This one is a hard no.
