[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Same here. I loved my charming older home, until we had kids. 
We are relocating to a less expensive city, and I want a new home. I want double sinks, walk in closets, laundry located off the master, open concept family/kitchen, a mudroom off an attached garage...
Sign me up.[/quote]

Yup. Not huge, but not small, I love my 5BR 3.5BA home with a closet the size of a small bedroom with floor to cieling built ins.i too had a small shit shack and almost suffocated with baby #2 came along and couldn't move fast enough.

Just set up the deck and patio today and will enjoy my additional 1,000 sq feet of deck and patio.[/quote]

I'm thinking of  something like this.
Anyone care to guess what it's gonna cost to build? I'm wondering if I can do it under 400k....

Under 400k in the DMV? Nope. Nope. Nope. My brothet is in construction and even the illegal day laborors are $18/hr.

You might be ablento get it under 400k if you do a modular home. Site work will cost you at least 100k, then you would want to find prefab thatbthey could plop doen for 300k or less.[/quote]

Not in the DMV. We are leaving the area. We're selling a shit shack for 800k and we'd like to not have a mortgage. [/quote]

Our second home is in the Blue Ridge, bordering WVA. We purchased a lot with utilities to the curb and a modular cabin (much smaller and probably more basic that your picture). Site work alone was 75K, 2,000sq foot fully completed modular dropped on it was 275k. This was 8 years ago.[/quote]
