[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Center hall colonials are not my favorite. There’s a lot of wasted space and even if you do a big kitchen/family room addition the formal rooms in front tend to be sort of disconnected. It’s hard to get good flow in them. [/quote] They were the most efficient form of housing for generations, which is why so many exist. It's the lifestyle that has changed. It's not difficult to update them for modern living. In the past people would have added a family room extension but now most open kitchen to dining room, and cut through back of hall to living room and get a good circular flow going. But even an unremodeled center hall colonial has far less wasted space than your typical new build. Now talk about wasted space![/quote]
