Searching for the best way to locate Homesteads 4 sale
Comments (17)I was born and raised in way far south Florida at the very edge of the 'glades, momma and daddys house near what is now Kendall stood through Andrew and lost only 4 tiles on the roof. Grandma had pictures (sis's now) of gangsters and other sorts at the old Morningside Pool, back when it was a prohibition booze palace and casino, long before the day it became a "park". By 1973 it was getting way to crowded and I left and never looked back......But having been a Dixielander all my life living in Fl, Ga, Tn, and NC, I am at last grown weary of summertime in the south and am looking at moving to a riverside place somewhere in way out in the woods Mn, Wi, or heaven forbid...even northern NY..... Land in west NC continues to climb in price.....Absurd pricing in the Asheville/Brevard/Hendersonville area....high and getting higher elsewhere in west NC......... An absolutely gorgeous 26 acres, 405' well w/water at 245'& 160'of reservior.....small year round creek never been dry....smaller branch fed by 3 springs never been dry....12 acres open/semi-open, 12 acres hardwoods, couple acres large white pines.....+2 miles off public road via damn near level deeded ROW, very private and secluded....former home to three stills.... places like this anywhere in west NC are getting extremely hard to come by any more..... 13 miles from I-77, 19 miles from I-40, power & land-line phone are on property....45 miles (short way via backroads) to "Hanes Mall" in Winston-Salem, 90 to I-77/I-85 interchange in Charlotte It's kinda sorta in a way for sale, well it's definetely for sale at $187,500 CASH, no offers no negotiating no financing no mobiles no commercial chicken/hog operations..... Like I said, it's getting expensive in west NC.... Good luck in your quest....... Put an "land wanted" ad in all the local papers, "traders" too, and check into whatever state you decide on Dept of Agriculture news/review/trader too...And ride around every back road you see, and stop at every little old store you see and check out the swap&sell--community notice boards..... and heres a good tip too.....if you see a septic tank pump truck, ask the driver about old places for sale, they see 'em all and are likely to be be more knowledgeable and honest about land and related issues/problems/watch-outs and the local neighborhood "atmospheres" than any realtor ever will be....just my opinion of course, Here is a link that might be useful: NC Agricultural Review/Trader...See MoreAny Good Way to avoid BLIND corners here???
Comments (33)I have the corners you have posted, but I do not have the hinged doors. I have two doors on the upper and two doors on the lower. It looks to me like you must consider two things: 1) are you willing to give up the bank of lower drawers to the right of your range to (or make them smaller) to accommodate the corner you want? 2) are you willing to lose the symmetry between the upper and the lower that your schematic illustrates, if you do change the bank of drawers. When I was working on my kitchen, I did not want a blind corner and the lack of symmetry between the upper and lower did not bother me and still doesn't. It looks like your kitchen is large enough to sacrifice that bank of drawers to accommodate that corner if that is what you want. I like my corner a lot. Let me know if you want more pics....See MoreSearching for Decent Size Elephant Ears
Comments (6)Sorry I have been off. I have asked the local nursery and they can only order what their supplier can get. I think I have wiped them out. I have ordered from Logee's before. Sometimes they are ok and sometimes not. Two years later I am still waiting for an orchid to bloom. In my opinion, their plants are uber tiny and shipping outrageous. I wound up ordering from Brian's Botanicals and had a bunch shipped. What he did not have I ordered from eBay. I will post an update here to let you know what I think of the quality. Thanks for all of the great suggestions!!!...See MoreWay to screw up a decent plan.
Comments (23)Annette, "Just putting the windows in the garage almost down to ground level confused me." This is a typical field error. Normally a construction document would have wording similar to "SET T/ WINDOW AT @82" ABOVE UNFINISHED FLOOR UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED ON THE PLAN". The statement is great it tells framers where to set a header. However garage floor is poured at the grade level, and no way for stock plan designer to know what grade level you will have. In the field a GC will determine the grade level and first floor level when foundation is excavated. The 82" of grade level not equal to 82" off first floor level. - Resulting in garage windows been a foot or two feel lower. Additionally in the pictures, floating gables not built right and/or placed wrong. They should have made them wider to account for corner boards imho. = You have to be very careful with David Wiggins plans. Slightly different finish and they do not look right. There are plenty of examples of La Meilleure vie looking odd and wrong when owner upgraded to brick or straiten the exterior bump outs, or boxed the roof eaves like in your picture. These plans are not for subdivision, they will not fit the common look and feel of a subdivision and most likely will not comply with the covenant. Examples are tudor (dark) style trim, vertical siding, large window frames - like in the plan will never pass,...See MoreJilly
