Garage
When house hunting found a really cool house. Exterior walls were 6 inches thick intead of 4 despite it being brick veneer. The ceiling joists were much thicker as well. the entire attic was floored with 3/4in plywood. It had an attached 2 car garage and and unattached, tall, 2 bay workshop that each bay was big enough to park an RV in. It also had built-in hidden gun safe and separate valuables safe.

Really cool except was on the corner lot on a very busy street. The front yard was on the busy street had 10 ft of gray suet from the traffic. Most of the yard space was unuseable. Would have been great except for that. With the thick walls and floored attic you couldn't even hear the traffic.

The builder/owner showed the house and kept coming down on the price. Just couldn't see living on that busy street with basically no yard being a dog owner. Had already looked at and decided against a house that had a stockade fence and backed up to a busy street. That back yard had a coat of gray suet on everything.
