Responses:

I'd allow the 'updated' status considering it was probably built in 197- wait, they were still building split levels in the 2000s? -- nm - Max Feb 22, 12:08 1
- It's a raised ranch, not a split level! - ty97 Feb 22, 12:11
I call those Homer Simpson homes,two levels, door in the middle -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 22, 12:05
It is updated to retro -- nm - crash davis Feb 22, 12:05 2
- Kitchen, all new stone counters, probably formica before -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 22, 12:16 1
  - Flooring looked like it could be new too. And possibly new-ish appliances. -- nm - sycor Feb 22, 12:19
You should have seen it *before*. -- nm - Spawn Feb 22, 12:02
I actually hate most raised ranches (split levels?) but I think it's actually a great floorplan for you. esp if there's like a bar area for drinks - amanda jeans Feb 22, 11:59 7
- Several things to note here: -- (edited) - ty97 Feb 22, 12:02 1
  - I grew up in a non-raised ranch. I'd kill for the lower level to have my man-space though. -- nm - sycor Feb 22, 12:12
- also we all know that the lower the house number, the sexier the address (damn you, 1124!). this is pretty sexy. -- nm - amanda jeans Feb 22, 12:00 4
  - I agree with this with the addendum that single digit numbers are for apartments, not houses. -- nm - Max Feb 22, 12:05 1
    - Single digits are downtown office towers, apartment blocks have numbers ending in 00 -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 22, 12:07
  - I'm not getting any younger, stairs are bad! -- nm - ty97 Feb 22, 12:04 1
    - Stairs keep you young, not everyone lives in a city where you have to walk everywhere -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 22, 12:06
I like the house, and love the price. But it's not updated one bit. -- nm - MDH Feb 22, 11:58 3
- My brother bought a (significantly bigger) house there in 2018 for less money. Housing market is bonkers -- nm - ty97 Feb 22, 12:07 2
  - Seattle up 18% last year, up 30 since 2020, now as bad as NYC -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 22, 12:09 1
    - Some Florida cities have just skyrocketed. -- nm - ty97 Feb 22, 12:10
“‘Up’ is a typo there, sorry” -- nm* - znufrii Feb 22, 11:58 1
- "Beautifully outdated" would be a strong flex -- nm - Beryllium Feb 22, 12:01
Sure, but you should've seen it BEFORE. -- nm - Volnelk Feb 22, 11:56
