House #3: Big yard across from Semi

The basics of House #3:

3-bedroom ranch on a corner lot on a quiet street in town. Full basement with family room. No dining room.

Funny story: This one is for sale by owner. Soon after we started looking at the house, we asked why they are moving and the wife mentioned that they have 3 kids and it is just too small for them. Hmmmm... perhaps the seller should know the potential buyer before divulging those kind of thoughts? She looked a little sick to her stomach when I said, "Oh, we have three kids..." :)



Fenced backyard:


Living room:


Large kitchen with lots of cabinets and beautiful back splash, and slider to the backyard:


Master bedroom:


Bedroom #2:


Bedroom #3:

The summary:

Pros:
Very large fenced backyard
Slider to the backyard means easy access to kids
Beautiful kitchen
Ample storage space
Tastefully decorated (well, except for that giant deer head...)
Nice extra room in basement would make a decent office

Cons:
Bedrooms are small
No master bathroom
No dining room
The garage smelled like dog
House is on a corner, which means the backyard (although fenced) is exposed to the street
And...

There was a semi parked across the street:


Could belong to the owners of the house?

So which one did we pick? I will reveal tomorrow!
