It's a house. And it's pretty close-in NOVA.


So, it's near the Taco Bell/KFC on Lee Highway. Which side of Lee is the house? North side, I assume, as not much residential across Lee. Just more commerce.

Taco Bell usually has a large parking lot around it. No thanks.

Generally speaking, houses are in fixed locations, so not sure it is even physically possible to sell it down the road.


I think I love you.

I wouldn't buy a house on a main thoroughfare, and I don't know of any Taco Bells on residential streets.

That would be my only concern. TB is open until like 3 AM.


This is a very good point.

I think they would around one of the turns. But there are few windows at the front.

Haha. I am concerned our boys would end up eating far too much Taco Bell.

We really like and can actually afford this house. But it's right across the street from a Taco Bell. Clearly it's caused potential buyers to pass since it's been on the market for awhile. This would probably not be our forever house, so I'm worried about selling it down the road.
