House hunting day 4&5

Well, we saw another few houses that will work but maybe 2 more that o to the top of our list. One is owned by a profesional soccer player and it is a grandiouse house with exaterated door ways surounded in stone and high cealings. It has 6 bedrooms, and an addition to the house that has a play room and a man room (thats what we always think of turning the wine room into, most houses have one) . the rooms are not big most of the space is in the living areas (as is Spanish custom) It also has a tennis court/ soccer field and a pool.The thing I am not sure about this house is #1 they dont want to take out some of thier larger pieces of furniture. Which are nice, but I have my own to fit in. #2 The high cealings will make our utility bills high #3 the rooms are spread all over with the additions and stuff its just not as close and homey.

The other we saw and liked is close to the kids school. It was up on a hill and has a yard that is 2 levels, with the out door bbq on the top level. It has a small but beautiful lawn area (no pool) It is a bit dated in the interior, but has 5 rooms and 2 lofts, a huge amount of storage space (which they want to use some off to put the furniture in the house into) But regardless of all of that it has the most killer view you could imagine! I mean amazing! You can see boats out on the mediterainian, and palm trees blowing in the breeze. You see the city high rises off in the distance. I don think it would be on our list of favorites if it were for that view! Plus the rent is a little lower so if we pay him more maybe he would put in a pool???

More today, maybe one on Saturday and then a few more on Monday and possibly tuesday.
Whats your vote on these 2?
