[quote=Anonymous]Those other houses pp listed are not in the same neighborhood & aren’t closer to downtown. The OP house has been nicely renovated & has an addition, as well as a flat yard (many in that neighborhood don’t). The houses originally had small frame garages that were barely big enough for a car, so most people have replaced them with storage buildings. The house still has off street parking. The Wardmans like the OP house are great houses — built solid as a rock. I lived in one in that neighborhood and, when we bought the house, the inspector gushed about how well built they are. When we remodeled the kitchen, the contractor couldn’t believe the subfloor was solid lumber (1” x 4”, if I recall), laid on the bias. They do command a premium over wooden frame houses that require more maintenance. I just finished spending a fortune to repair rot in my (beautiful) old frame house and it made me miss the old brick Wardman. [/quote]
