[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Around here, inside the beltway, 2,500 SF is a pretty decent sized house, and 1/4 acre is a pretty decent sized lot. If renovating it still won't make you happy, yes, you may need to think about moving farther out. That said, I personally would never live farther out again. I lived in FFX (about a mile outside the beltway) and hated it for 12 years, so I'll never do that again. And that was close-in, and metro-accessible. (And we do just fine with a 1,500 SF + basement house on 1/8th acre, because for us, a cozier house with character and a good layout is just fine.)[/quote] Just curious but why did you hate it? Seems like worst part about being outside the beltway is commute and if you were close to the metro then maybe commute wasn't so bad. Or are you really into the walkability thing?[/quote]
