james_davis_nicollI like to look at online real estate listings to see how people use interior spaces. I've come to the conclusions that:
A: Few people use more than 2000 square feet effectively. Above that, they seem to run out of ideas about how to use each room*.
B: Lots of houses have gratuitous features whose purpose seems to be to make them unusable to mobility impaired people.
C: (this is the stupid one) Townhouses are fine but I hate the idea of a duplex. For some reason, having to cooperate with 50 people bothers me more than having to get along with one specific person or family.
* More libraries is always the right answer.
There was a place for sale just up the road from me whose entire basement was given over to sturdy-looking bookcases.
