svelteParticipantI always joke with my wife that, now that 2007 is over, they will be renaming this show to “My House Is Worth Squat?”

svelteParticipantSo what is with the second screen door? How do you plan to keep that room at the proper temp for a wine room? Strange location for a ‘wine room’..
It just looks like a screen door. What looks to be screen door lattice is actually a wine rack along the lines of this
http://www.woodweb.com/knowledge_base/DiamondShaped_Wine.html
or this
http://riverofstonedesigns.com/WineRackTables.htm
We have seen wine rooms built into the new KB Homes at Shady Grove in Fallbrook (same iron entrance, but a little larger storage area) and in a 2-3 year old home in Stone Canyon in San Marcos – the Stone Canyon home had it built in under the stairway virtually identical to the Joy Ct home.
These wine rooms don’t control the temperature. It would mainly be useful for keeping red wines at room temp.
But we have kind of hijacked this thread. Do any realtors know what the confidential remarks say for the Joy Court listing?

svelteParticipantWrought iron door is to a wine room, which is all the rage at the moment. We’re big wine ppl so it appeals to us, but I would imagine in another decade it will be laughed at as the disco ball of the current decade.
Agree about the tile – must have been a do-it-yourselfer!
As either sdrealtor or SD Realtor (can’t remember which) said before, the houses on this street are at an odd location. Backs up to a busy street that will be 4 lanes soon, and they stated there is what amounts to a swamp in the empty field seen from the back side of the house. I haven’t seen that swamp, but that doesn’t sound inviting.
Somebody took a little narrow splotch of land, built huge homes on them, and let the raging house market at the time snatch them up at ridiculous prices. Now the market is punishing those homes.

svelteParticipantI’m not really sure what the results of this thread are going to show you, Marion. All you’ll get is ancedotal replies and the men on this board are not your typical males anyway.
I am way, way different than the ‘typical’ male, but I can tell you that there really isn’t a position of power in our relationship. What normally happens is, when one of us feels strongly about a topic the other one defers to that opinion. It has worked well in the many years we have used it. Luckily, we have very similar opinions on a wide range of topics or this probably wouldn’t work.
Second, we always must be in agreement on significant financial decisions (over $1000 or so) but neither really consults the other about smaller decisions. Wifey has an extensive shoe collection which I rather enjoy myself. ๐ And my tool collection is growing. ๐
Neither of us could get away with using sex as a weapon because the other would know it was an idle threat. It is such a big part of our life that whomever did the threatening would cave in a matter of days!
And since I’ve went down this road, the dress discussion was really fun. As asianautica noted all guys have different preferences, luckily. Me, I wouldn’t give a second glance to a size 00. My wife is more CMcG ish which means we can’t shop in the petites (chest won’t fit) nor the large women dept (chest fits but they look like tents)!. Thus, we are left with visiting the alteration dept for most purchases. Sigh.
