[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're thinking about going on the market - wondering if our model would be considered as odd, as PPs are referencing.  Cape Cod style in ChCh, MD.  Two bedrooms up, two on main floor, one in newly finished basement.  One full bath on each floor (two redone in past 5 years, one older).  Galley kitchen that opens to a room we've used as either a dining room or family room.  If we list, it'll be around 1m even.  Large yard, small one car garage.  Curious if that's something people would find odd or suitable.  It just isn't what I think of when someone says "5 bedroom house in Chevy Chase," you know?[/quote]

As a buyer with two very young kids, I've pretty much ruled out homes with this layout, unless the master is on the first floor. We've seen some beautiful homes with this layout, but I can't imagine having my infant and toddler on the first floor. I feel like we'd have to be so quiet after they went to bed---especially if the rooms are off the dining or living rooms (as they often are). I've noticed that Capes with this layout tend to sit longer, even when they are beautifully renovated. If you can make the master on the ground floor, it may be more appealing to people with kids. We loved a home like this, but the layout stopped us from making an offer. The home is gorgeous but is still sitting with no offers 3 weeks after it listed. :([/quote]
