(Am I being unrealistic about this? $500\/month seems like a lot to me for no acreage.) Good stuff: three-car garage, 2,112 square feet, cool-looking place, though carpeting is mentioned in the description&#8211;a no-no for me, but easy enough to take out if wood floors are promised beneath.

No, those fields wouldn&#8217;t belong to you, but it doesn&#8217;t feel like a cramped village house because of them. Readers? Thoughts?
