Awww, somebody just told me I look like Liv Tyler. So sweet!

(Sorry, I think she''s really pretty, so I''ve got to take the compliments where I can get them, and then brag shamelessly!)

Pictures please.

Dis is her:

I can definitely see the resemblance. The eyes and lips are certainly very similar!

Besides the obnoxious wall color, it looks pretty nice! I think that living in a college town would be fun. I will go through college town withdrawal otherwise. I figure Berkeley will probably flow nicely with my politics and its about 30 minutes from my work. Not bad! I would have the reverse commute from everyone else in that location (I''d be heading away from the city, everyone else would be going in).

On second thought, that apartment isnt as great as I thought. I am happy enough to know that there ARE Ok places to live for the price range I have in mind. I don''t think I can get away with living IN SF directly, but just outside of it would be wonderful.

I''m with elro. Sad, but I also think it''s a great deal...ESPECIALLY if they let you PAINT!

 

[elrohwen]

I pay almost that much for less space in uber-boring suburban CT

That's way cheaper than I expected Berkley to be.

Oh heck ya that''s uber cheap for SF area. My gf lives in SF and her tiny apartment is like 3k.

Yeah, I have 1200 sqft in the DC burbs with one assigned non-covered parking space for $1498/mo. We''re getting a STEAL, but it''s cuz we''re *just* far enough away from the Metro Station at the end of the line.

But Western CT is really pretty! I will give you boring though. If you don''t have lots of cash to spend shopping, I can see getting bored there quickly. One of my closest friends got married in Westport (she is from there... you can see her wedding pics in my pics on the nameless site). I loved being around to help her plan because its so picturesque.

 

[Lauren8211]

I have 1400 sq ft, 3 bedrooms, 2 bath, walk to downtown... 1,000.

 

[Clairitek]

Our mortgage is actually less than that... for a 3 BR/1 Bath house just outside of Philly. I wonder if I will miss my garden!

The coast is really pretty, and actually interesting - unfortunately I'm 45 min north of there

But DH works in NY so we kind of have to live up here. My first place was in Stamford and I loved living there, but $1600/month for 800sqft 1bdrm was a bit much. Our current town is ridiculously boring - far worse than Greenwich, Stamford, Westport, etc. I really want to move to the Hudson Valley now that I'm not working in CT anymore, but I hate moving and I love our place. Oh well!

I can''t do one bathroom. Ok I CAN, but thats the last amenity I would want to go!

We have a yard and driveway also. Nestled in between 2 parks and one awesome sledding hill.

Welll, I lied. We actually have a toilet in the basement as well. Though, we didn''t use it until we decided to renovate our bathroom on our own so we''ve been pooing in the basement. I greew up in a 1.5 bath home where I pretty much shared the full bath with my father and mom got the half bath so I guess I''m used to fewer toilets.

Holy crap Elle! I''m coming to visit! Tell Ferris he can''t pee on me.

My house is 1700 sq ft w/ yard and our mortgage is $1,600. We bought our house out of foreclosure so we got a heckuva deal. It was built in 07'' and has all the upgrades. We bought it for 88k less than it was on the market for when it went into foreclosure. SCORE!
