Well, that would be a high price to pay, bargain or not.
We're not looking for a cookie-cutter neighborhood. Seems like we keep coming back to areas like Shandon, Heathwood, and around Lake Katherine and Forest Lake, from the descriptions you've all been giving us. Maybe Shandon at the top of the list given that we could actually walk to some stuff. (I guess that's not the case in Heathwood or the two lakes?)
But I have to admit that a house on Lake Murray also just seems like it would be really cool, if it were a reasonable commute and had at least some amenities nearby.
