[quote=Anonymous]So we walked down the alley tonight to get a good look. There is some paved area to the property before this house but it is small, runoff type paving with high sides. Unless you have a clown car it will not fit past the actual paved alley onto the thinner paved area which doesn't even reach this house. In addition the neighbors across the alley from this house have a large fence up to the property line.  Unless the developer is going to buy land adjacent to this house (where they have a trampoline and their driveway entrance) I have no idea how widening to allow TWO cars in and out will actually happen. Maybe the next door neighbors will allow access but putting something in will take up a lot of the backyard to make it useable including backing out your Range Rover. It is clear the neighbors across the alley aren't going to move their fence unless someone makes it worth their while.

What I thought was interesting is that all the houses on 32nd and Barnaby that do not have alley access (from this house east) have curb cuts with driveways and most have garages. I don't know if this house had a curb cut at one time but it is definitely an outlier. If the developer had gone deeper into the lot for building they could have left room on the side for a driveway like the two other new builds on that block (one of which doesn't have alley access either). But it seems like they choose to keep the house wide and shallow. There are definitely garbage bins sitting out front since there is no place to put them.

It is a massive fishbowl too. Someone is going to need a massive window covering budget for this one. Close to the street and neighbors in the back too. [/quote]
