North Thornwood Dr
"Tree-lined residential street"
A little wooded, residential curved street in the middle of square blocks. The residents seems to enjoy living there in their 1940's style houses, that they each had to renovate or pass on the work to the next lucky person who was "blessed" enough to live there. There was an air of importance and prestige in these houses. It was a pretty street to stroll down, nice in the hot sun. But it was because of this street I will never consider an older home-it screamed "money required to fixup just to live in it." No thank you, I will leave the renovations, mold, busted pipes, plaster walls, lead paint, and small spaces to the "blessed" ones who get to live there. On a scale of one to five I give it a two, only for strolling down.

Hi mjane, you make a good point about the expense of buying an old place. Where do you draw the line? What are you willing to fix and what make you walk away from a property?
