[quote=Anonymous]My parents are 74 and 75 and still in my childhood home 45 years. They have kept it up and redid wood floors, renovated kitchen and all bathrooms. My mom is a decorating fiend and always in Homegoods. They wanted it to be in excellent condition and to quote my mom "not look like an old person's home:)"/ It looks great. My dad still does lawn care himself and mows, has his gardens. My kids go for sleepovers--but since everyone but my brother (bachelor) lives in the area only the grandkids spend the night. My dad hates the idea of shared walls/condo living. My house is close-in, very walkable on a smaller lot. There is a full bath and bedroom in finished basement for guests. I don't see the need to down-size ever. It's a great 'medium-size', convenient house. Guests and my college-age nephews love to visit because you can walk to bars, restaurants and Metro.[/quote]
