I just read further down and saw the asking prices of both homes. For some reason, I never tire of comparing home prices here to home prices elsewhere, perhaps because there's just such an amazing discrepancy. Add a zero to both those figures and you'd get about what they'd go for in my neighborhood, regardless of lot size, based on a medium-sized lot.
Thank you for defining the butler's pantry. We don't appear to have those in our older houses (or perhaps ours simply aren't old enough? My house and others in this neighborhood are 1928-1929ish) but we do have "service porches", which are a nice place to stick extra cabinets and ye olde washer and dryer, and usually have a door leading out to the backyard or side yard. These are the bits that usually get cannibalized when bigger kitchens are desired.
