As much as I enjoy giving people crap for stuff in their photos, I'm mostly just jealous of the pool

So we still don't know what a hidden patio is huh? I'm also wondering why the hell anyone would want one. Isn't the point of a patio to sit outside and see outside things? I'm starting to think he's talking about a basement.

We've already deduced that it's a garage.

I love this pool. Best part... It's my brother's pool. I walk next door. Swim. Float. Leave.

Maintenance free and free!

I’ll be going to my pool tomorrow and cooking out. Best part is my pool is also maintenance free.

Yes!
We can have DBT and AST over and they can clean the pool and smoke meats while we sip cervezas poolside.

Plus it features a hidden patio :surprised:

I'll have to find the title, but a friend got us a book of Hyde Park history that focuses on the houses and neighborhoods.  It has some pretty interesting stuff in it.

it would need some work, but beyond some paint work here and there, kitchen is really the only thing that jumps out at me based on the pictures.

I like old houses and think that one is sweet. The 1980s green flooring and backsplash can go. Way better than new build where it’s 50 shades of gray

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

My current house is like 98 years old.  There's a lot of annoying things about living in a house that old.  But there's some neat things about it too.
