Cherry hill house

The past month or so has been full of house looking. This has included many discussions about what we want in a house. How many bedrooms? How much square footage? How big (or small) of a yard can we handle? Live in town or out of town? We went galavanting with our real estate agent from one side of PA to the other in search of the perfect, elusive house. When I'm on call for the clinic, the hospital dictates that I have to be within 20 minutes. So, that puts a bit of a contraint on how far out we can live. So, after looking at a bunch of house, none of which were truly "in town." B, our real estate agent, said, "You guys seem to like to walk everywhere, yet we aren't looking at any houses in town. What's up with that?" Which, lead us to look at some houses in town. We narrowed the search down to 2 houses, one in town, not to far from our current apartment, and one decidedly out of town, about 15 minutes away from the hospital. We seem to have come to the conclusion that living in town is the best for us, especially given how much I enjoy walking or biking to work. And, on weekends I'm on call, I'd be gone the entirety of each day since it would take too long to come home and then possibly be called in again a short time later.

Adding to the confusion of this, the house that we chose on Cherry street has given me a literal headache a few times that we've been inside of it. It is a brand new house and is likely due to the off-gasing of the carpets. If I had every choice in the world, we would buy (or build) a green-built house so that off-gasing of new products would be less of, or not, an issue. Unfortunately there aren't any green houses on the market that we like. After the house has been aired out some, the smell and headache seem less of an issue. After gathering a little more data about cost of blinds and those sorts of things, we are liking going to make an offer soon. Below are a few pictures of the front and the kitchen.
