[quote=Anonymous] I agree with OP that it's not reasonable to expect that these older homes would stay forever. I live in a 1952 house that we bought for its charm and location in a close-in suburb of DC. But I know that our next home will be something newer. I miss having high ceilings and a good layout, even though our house is very charming and handsome. The ideal, in my opinion, would be new-builds that are approximately 3000 to 4000 square feet, and built with very high-quality materials. There are 2 new-builds on our street of houses built in the 1950's. One of the new-builds is custom, and fits in nicely in the neighborhood, as it was well-designed and is a slight bit subtle. The other one is 7000 square feet of space, on a lot that is approximately 8000 square feet. The house looks like a small apartment building. If it were just a bit more subtle, then it would look so much better. [/quote]
