Since your mission is accomplished, I'll hijack your thread a bit...

I am nowhere near deciding on whether or not rent or buy(hah!), but here is #1 on the fantasy list anyway:

https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/14130-Reservation-Rd-Salinas-CA-93908/19376073_zpid/

Kitchen appears a bit dated...but the living area looks amazing.

And no, I cannot afford it.  :P

crazy canuck

High ceilings  :wub:

I love post and beam construction.

A 1750 square foot house for $640,000.00

Now see that is more what I am used to.

Lol, perspective is everything.  I was thinking, hell at that price I will take at least three.

Not quite the languish party pad of the other one.
But I'm sure it suits you fine. :cheers:

Beautiful house, Toni! :wub:

But.. is there any yard to speak of?? :unsure:
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Something I noticed on those sites, are floor plans not a thing in the US?
I find them more helpful than a gazillion wide-angle pictures.

Only very rarely do you get a floor plan.

Lot is 4,700 square feet so not really, though I guess it depends on where the house is on the property.

I don't need a big yard.  And yards there would double the price.  :P

Then how do you build a 3D model to see how all your stuff fits?  :nerd:

You can usually get one if you talk to the realtor. If you are at the 3D Modeling stage you can probably make a few inquiries :P

If there's a virtual tour, there is usually a floor plan attached to that. Sometimes, even a 3D model of the house. But yeah, like Valmy said, not typical.

I draw out my own with the measurements given on the house's informational page. :D
