Starter. It's very comfortable for us and one LO, and even two young LOs, possible. We do want to do some work to it, like adding a deck, so we intend on staying here a while. But it won't accommodate a growing (as in, LOs growing older) family for very long. Even if we only have one child, I can see it being cramped with two adults and a teenager. I think it will work well for us for 5-10 years depending on our needs, but it's not a forever home. It's what we could afford at the time.

@PrincessBaby: I know exactly where that is! I run the bridge everytime I go home! Omgosh that's so exciting and such a great location. You're going to LOVE it! Our lease is up may 2014 so it would probably be around then. DH wanted to be at his job for a couple more years anyway so it would work out great. Ughh just thinking about your move makes me so jealous/excited. Although I'm scared if I move there ill gain 100lbs!

Ours is an in-between... I see it as a 5-10 year home (we've been here about 2.5 yrs). Next house we want to either have it built and custom, or move to a new city and have new adventure as condo in urban area.

I'd say neither. We could continue living in it but we probably won't. It's a house we bought for just us before we were married but has enough space for us + 1. We'd likely add on a bit if we stayed long term (mainly it only has 1 full bath). We will probably move to a different city/state within the next couple of years, and knew that before we bought our house. So definitely never planned it for forever.
