Looks like they did their best to squeeze modern stuff into an old floor plan. God, I'd love to live in that house.

    - That's This Old House. They use the best contractors in the coutnry. -- nm - the liioulu with cds Oct 11, 13:05
    - fine print "average contractor that is being filmed." -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 11, 13:05
- good point. -- nm - znufrii Oct 11, 13:00 6

      - I'll be interested to find out if this is just coming on the market after the reno/development of the rest of the property - znufrii Oct 11, 13:06
      - Don't get me wrong, there is every likelyhood that it is right. - The Ruiner Oct 11, 13:06 2
        
        half of what I've learned from HGTV is knowing what to look for and asking the right questions - znufrii Oct 11, 13:07 1
        
        what if the realtor is on the HGTV tricks? -- nm - loosilu Oct 11, 13:08
- There's something about the bathrooms that doesn't look quite right to me. - the liioulu with cds Oct 11, 12:59 6
  - thos positioning of the fixtures is weird, I'll give you that. -- nm - znufrii Oct 11, 13:02 4
    - The back-to-back sinks don't seem to be usable at the same time. Which makes them no more convenient than a single. -- nm - mara Oct 11, 13:04 3
      - Yeah, one sink can't be used at all unless the door is closed. - CovingtonCat Oct 11, 13:10
      - more importantly... - znufrii Oct 11, 13:09 1
        
        There is no mirror in the other bathroom either. Was the previous owner blind? -- nm - decline Oct 11, 13:11
  - Yup. -- nm - The Ruiner Oct 11, 13:00
