These houses are basically in the part of the West End that is zoned detached dwelling only. The lots alone are worth a mil. You could have a mansion, a crackhouse, or a chicken coop on the lot and it would still cost a million bucks. Other parts of the West End have high rises and are very densely populated.
ReplyDeleteI know that's what they cost. Whether they're worth it is a different matter. Years ago we toyed with the idea of moving west but we like to go to Europe a few times a year and the extra hours on a plane did not appeal to me. Now we couldn't afford to make the move even if we wanted to.
