Comparables - same floor plan

---

Below are pictures of nearly three dozen houses with our floorplan (or at least ranch style with a 'great room'). Most are clustered in 2 places - twenty of them are in 3 parallel blocks between 31st and 32nd north of the rec center (Emporia, Elmira) and nine more are in 2-3 consecutive blocks on 29th, west of Beeler. 1. our house 1a. west side of our house, which we would like to landscape. I have found two houses (numbers 1A and 1B) that have a larger lot size, with side yards that are amenable to use as a lawn, like we want to do. These pictures have a blue border. 1A-1. Notice the high fence on the right side of the house 1A-2. This shows the right side. Notice that the neighbors have a smaller yard than our neighbors do. 1A-3. This shows the other side. 1A-4. The next five pictures were taken from the alley in back. It's kind of odd that they didn't bring the high fence all the way out to the alley. 1A-5. They have a door from the garage. 1A-6. 1A-7. I peeked over the fence. Note that they do not have an outdoor fireplace. The landscaping is very plain - just mulch against the house and then grass. I like the general idea. It seems that they have less of a grade to worry about than we do. 1A-8. 2A-1. This is the second example of a house with relatively wide side yards. Like the one above, they have fenced the side adjacent to the patio with a high, opaque fence. This is on Boston Street, overlooking the park and rec center. 2A-2. Same house, other side (no fence, which is our plan). 2. These next 3 are near Emmy's house, on Songbird Park. This is Valli and Tom McDougle's house. Its interior is stunning. 3. 4. This was our inspiration - Chuck and Karen Hackard's house, also a magnificent interior. 4A. This is another Spanish style, located about a block from our house. 5. The next ten are between 31st and 32nd north of the rec center (Emporia, Elmira) 6. 7. This is the only one on a corner lot 8. 9. This was interesting - a young man came out to inquire what I was doing, and told me about the house. His parents live here. His mother designed the front yard. Note how they replaced the dining room windows with French doors. 9a. A closeup of the previous one 10. 11. 11.

This is to be listed soon at $560K. 32. This illustrates the differences in lot size (from Google Earth).
