Sorry i havent read all responses- and i think my example is a little different to what you are talking about- but the favourite "house" i lived in was a shack/shed with no running HOT water (we had running COLD water)- no loo inside- no real ceiling- no real anything- but it was at the top of a mountain and i could see for miles in either direction- i had ocean views, Morning Sunrises that were amazingly beautiful and the peace and tranquility of the bush...

So i guess thats the crap house in the "nice" suburb- but i wouldnt live in a suburb at all really- give me wide open spaces any day!!! What ever i have to live in to get it!!!
