hm, I guess this one comes the closest in terms of "plain and simpleness" despite the lack of windows across the front

What a wide variety of homes forsale! From run down shacks for $92,000 up to big nice homes in the $600,000 range.
But many of the homes did NOT have garages! The more expensive ones did.
But check it out. The photos will give you a good idea of the landscape too.
Great David. I did check it out. There were a small number of one bedroom houses. I saw a lot of garages, some not attached. The prices to this old codger's mind are out of this world. Ellery is not materialistic, figured he would live alone, so I can see him in a one bedroom house with a carport, or even no garage at all. It evidently doesn't snow there like it does in Iowa!

He would have bought the house in 78 or 79, about four years before. Chances are the prices were about 25% of what they are now!!!

Louise -- that place looks like a dump! LOL I refuse to have Ennis and Ellery living in a dump!!
How about this, also for sale?
This one has one bedroom, one bath, so it would be the right size.
All in all, I am NOT impressed with the real estate for sale in Laramie. Thank goodness I am not planning on moving there...

Louisev, I think the prices would have been even less, at least 50% lower than now. A one bedroom, one bath, say 800 square foot home would be pretty small. I have lived in such circumstances. But I think it fit Ellery to a T!
