or this is more typical of the architecture (ramblers and splits, in the older part of mclean).

Agree that anything over 2000 sq ft can't really be called small, even in mclean.

+1

And again, the claim that this is small by US standards? Stop. Just stop. You are making a fool of yourself with this nonsense.

Its cute and pretty walkable. The street is pretty tight back there - not much of a lot.

No, because you said you think a 4800 sq foot house is small, unless I'm misunderstanding you.

NO INTERIOR PICS = KNOCK DOWN.

You know this right, PP?

OP, buy what YOU like. There an awful lot of jealous people here who want you to feel pummeled as they are. Don't bother with them. They have their own problems, and are desperately looking for a target.

Just because they can't afford a nice house close in, they will be damned if you can. Ignore them like the plague to society that they are.

I am talking about new houses, no one builds a new house that small.

Yes, and this one is 4800. Its BIG. Just 'cause the others around it are bigger, does not make it small.

No I mean it's 4800 SQRFT counting the basement not 4800 SQRFT + the basement. It's pretty average to small for a new build.

I am a wasp and I love this house!

Agree. That is no small house. My house is slightly smaller than that and still way more than we need as a family of 4 with out of town relatives.

Also, did anyone else notice the address?!?! WASP lane? Almost like its describing the kind of buyer they want...

BwaHaHaHa. Small house? SMALL house?

What does everyone think? At first the price looked good but upon further investigation the house is a little bit on the smaller side.

4800 - 1290 = 3523

I am also more open to buying this house because it looks more modest.
