Thank you all for very valuable info and research links. I looked through most of the stuffs and read your opinions carefully. Final decision: not worth taking the risk to buy 13340 Shadetree. It’s close to powerline and in the evening the noise from the powerline is annoying.

I didn’t find one study that said there is no health risk. On the other hand there are many that claims causal and statistically valid connection between powerline and health issues. Though I was not totally convinced about the health risk (because I believe there are other stuffs like bad food and lifestyle actually poses higher risk), at the end of the day it’s not worth to put my family out to the risk.

Thank you for your opinion. Good that I found Piggington before bidding for the home. Hopefully will find a good home soon..

Looking at the brochure at Toll Brothers sales office I thought they are including more stuffs than Serenity (w/o the upgrade fund). Toll Brother lists following as standard:

– 7″ crown moulding
– 4″ baseboards
– Stainless steel appliances
– Granaite countertop with full backsplash behind cooktop
– 12″ X 12″ ceramic tile flooring in kitchen and other areas

Is Toll Brother worse than Serenity and other builders in terms of what they include as “standard”?

Thanks ocrenter for putting things quantitatively. As you said, every deal makes sense at the right price.

My estimate of the house without the power line impact is $950k including the upgrades, pools etc. Based on all the opinions in this forum, I think 800k is not price for me. Still figuring out if high 700k is the right price or not.

The concern remains resell value and time. I looked up numerous reseraches on health issues. the conclusions are either divided or slightly inclined toward “no impact”. I am sure I have more risks from many other things.

I am still thinking what I should do?

Thanks for your inputs- very helpful.

I’m inclining toward low balling to 800k. No harm if it doesn’t work out.

I like Calabria and don’t find one that’s at 800k. Toll Brothers will ofcouse be lot nicer, but at least a million for a view lot which is too high for me.

Keep your thoughts coming.
