Location, location, location

For sale. New construction homes with a lovely view of a superstore right in your own backyard! Wake up each morning to the music of delivery trucks delivering their goods, and the lively song of employees yelling at them. Drift off to sleep each night with the glow of floodlights dancing through your bedroom window, and the gentle whisper of the dumpster truck. Walking distance to the superstore means you'll save, save, save. These beautiful 1500 square foot sh*tboxes won't last long, and they're priced to sell!

David...the homes are in Rockton, Illinois. Most new construction homes here are priced in the $170,000 to $220,000 range EVEN these.

They are larger than 1500 sq feet (they are two story, 3 car garage).. but also not the drainage ditch in the back yard of the houses near the 'supermart'.. (you can see the curvature of the ground for the ditch along the fence.. about 15 feet from the fence towards the house. It gets deeper from left to right).

bj...some of the homes are larger than 1500 sq. ft. and they are actually nice homes. I just wouldn't want a superstore for a neighbor. I am sure these homes will sell. It isn't a bad area at all, but I think the people who buy these homes will have a very difficult time reselling when the time comes. "To each his own!"

You actually think these things are walking distance to the superstore?

The way Americans design towns and subdivisions, I bet if you wanted to walk to that store without fording the canyon and hopping the fences like an illegal alien, you'd have to walk half a mile or more to the "exit" where your subdivision road comes to a main road, then walk along that to loop back eventually to the stores. And then haul your loot back how you came.

Complete suburban nightmare -- all the isolation of suburban living but with the annoyance of the big city right over the fence! Arrghhh!

Sometimes a drainage ditch will grow in real nice with vegetation and such. Would take a few years, but could get to be real nice.
