You could buy new construction, there's tons to choose from, and no shade if that's your thing...but there won't be much shade on your lot (or any mature plants to speak of). You'd like to have a workshop? That's cool...as long as the HOA approves it. And you have the money to build it. You want new construction and a brick exterior? Too bad, you'll be hard pressed to find it. Sounds like what you REALLY want is this charming, well built, established home, on a large corner lot, with lots of trees and mature plants, a huge workshop out back for all your projects, AND fully remodeled for you. With new flooring, paint, roof, appliances, counters, and light fixtures...it's like you're getting a new home...but with a whooooole lot more. This charming and sturdy 3/2 brick ranch has updated all the the important features to make the home feel clean and fresh...while preserving that fabulous avocado tile and showers (just like Martha Stewart's new line!) that gives the home charm and personality. Do you want a cookie cutter home that looks just like the one on either side? Or do you want a home with some charm and character and personality? A place where you can put down roots, as well as express yourself? If so, 228 Allenwood needs to be your next stop!!
