You'll be living on the Edge(vale) if your situation allows you to make this mid-century raised ranch your home. You won't be able to stop yourself from falling for its retro charm and practical functionality; you won't be able to help yourself (at all) from parking in front of one of two fireplaces to stave off the winter chill. You can judge a wise layout that gives options for home office spaces that allow privacy + productivity while reducing complication + aggravation for your relationship health.
