Georgetown, Texas Real Estate Blog Your Host: Edward Lui

Located on a quiet street close to the San Gabriel Park in Georgetown, Texas. Imagine being able to walk or bike just a few minutes to a 130 acre park and meander through a hike and bike trail speckled with 200 year old oak trees along the San Gabriel River. Of the $15,000 in recent upgrades, this is the best feature of 108 Benchmark Street.

What’s most important to you when buying a new home? Is it material quality, craftsmanship, style, energy efficiency, or is it floorplan? Well who could chose just one because they are all important!

The fact is that many buyers do not pay attention to the smaller details and ask questions like: How much insulation do I have or where do the materials come from? If a builder is including tons of stuff are they just raising the price of the home? Where are the materials made and are they quality? When shopping for a home I know I sure didn’t think about asking these things.

When you’re out house shopping don’t get discouraged, it’s supposed to be fun! Look at all the details… trim work, window treatment, sheetrock work, compare these things with others to see what the differences there are. I know time can be a big issue sometimes but hopefully resources like this can help speed the process. If you have an arsenal of questions before you go out looking it will make things much easier and these are questions all on-site managers should know.

You’ve got to check out Chantal’s on the Georgetown Square! I went to this restaurant about a month ago and had this delicious roast beef sandwich au jus. I think that’s a fancy way to say you have permission to dip it in the French Onion Soup without looking like a caveman. Sorry Geico Cavemen, that wasn’t a slam.

All of the meat was so tender and mouth-watering good, especially since you get to dip it in the soup. Did I mention that you can dip it in soup like dipping Oreo cookies in milk? I had lots of fun dipping that sandwich of mine. My goal was to drink the soup by dipping it and not have to use my spoon. My friend didn’t know I was having so much fun…all he got was a salad. Not your typical looking salad, it looked like they forgot to cut off the romaine lettuce and just stuck the whole thing on his plate! He dipped his salad in dressing, but not nearly as cool as “au jus.”
I think the bill was $35 for two. If you want a low-risk way to check out their food without spending a ton on dinner, make it a lunch date.

The atmosphere is great too, set in an old historic home off the square. I’m taking my wife, Autumn, there for lunch tomorrow. I think it’s the best food in Georgetown…great for a date! Tomorrow will be the confirmation. Yum Yum, here I come!
