But all the same, it's hard not to whimper in relieved shock when, _for the same price_ as our current noisy, bugs-in-the-walls, dilapidated small 1-bedroom in NYC, I see an ad like this:
EVANSTON Coach House. 3BR, 1BA, DR, LR, hrdwd flrs, remod. & sunny. On 1 acre estate. Incl prkng/lndry. $1650.+utils. 847-475-7973
The amusing thing about Evanston real estate is that many of the single-family homes are former coach houses or servant quarters for the gorgeous turn-of-the-century summer mansions by the lake. So they're nice but small buildings next to these lofty castle-like structures. If only we had 10 million dollars to spare...
