This afternoon we took a drive through a few more extremely nice subdivisions. We saw many lovely homes and one monster home that wouldn't fit entirely in a photo! I think the house above is my favorite of the day. It even has a metal roof, and I don't think it looks half bad. The best part is that it has a turret - something we are definitely considering.
The house below was prettier in person. This photo doesn't really do it justice. I've been taking all these photos with my iPhone, and it's hard to get a good shot through the windows of a moving car!
The "monster house" is below. I couldn't even fit the entire house in the shot. Notice half of the front door is on the left, which means there's an entire other side of the house not in the photo! It must be at least 5000 square feet. You can click on any of these photos to enlarge them. If you click on the "monster house," you'll be able to see the drive-thru archway on the left side of the photo.
Since we're planning on building a walkout basement, we look at the backs of houses too. The one below caught our eye.
Where are you taking your driving tours? I had a friend who had a beautiful home in Wildwood. These kind of remind me of the neighborhood she lived it,
ReplyDeleteThese were in Ravenwood in Shiloh and the Orchards in Belleville. The ones last week were in Columbia back behind the quarry. It's a lot of fun looking at these and wondering if they belong to doctors or lawyers. Whatever we build won't be nearly as grand as any of these, but we are writing down ideas - on a smaller scale, of course.
