[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]jealousy - plain and simple. jealous that newer homes have open floor plans, are well insulated, have 2 car garages, real basements, large closets, cook top vents that vent OUT, new plumbing, efficient windows and HVAC.... By the way, I don't live in a newer home because I want to live inside the beltway and cannot afford a new home in Bethesda or Chevy Chase....so I live in a tiny, drafty house "with charm" ;) [/quote] You can have these things in an old house too. You just have to pay for them. Our house was built in 1918 and renovated by the previous owners who put in new windows (which must gave cost a fortune be pause they went with wood frames and leaded inserts to maintain the look of the house), a big addition with walk in closets, a gorgeous kitchen which opens on to the dining room, and a new HVAC system. We're planning to finish the basement at some point so I guess the next owners after us will be even more fortunate :) [/quote]
