House #17


We saw house #17 last night: 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2,110 square feet, listed just this week at $195,000. It's in Woods Cross, and what we could see of the neighborhood looked nice, but it was dark when we saw it, so who knows?
The house is a great value (only $92/square foot) and it's all in liveable condition, but it's pretty outdated. There was wallpaper in almost every room. And not just wallpaper, which I would prime and paint over easily, but textured wallpaper. There was new carpet in several rooms, and the old carpet was still in good condition. The kitchen cabinets were nice, but a bit outdated, and the countertop was pretty old. The basement was awesome, with a large family room, two big bedrooms, a storage room, a 3/4 bathroom, and a wet bar. The backyard also looked pretty nice: big, grassy, shady, and fully fenced.
Overall, it was a nice house.

Well kate.. I would go for this one. IT has 5 bedroom girl. while the other one might be your dream house, is it practical ?? aren't u planning on having more kiddos. You will need the square footage. 1750 isn't very much when you get a family of six in there. I know, our townhouse is 1650. and it is starting to feel tight..... It might not be up to your liking (wallpaper) but girl u can always update to the way u like it... something to think about while looking at houses and this one is cheaper !!!! gOOD LUCK
