My next door neighbor is building an addition on his house

It seems funny he is doing this because that house is pretty big for two people. I still have yet to see the wife, and they have lived there probably 3 years. Actually, to be honest most of my neighbors the wives are scarce..You see them walking the hood every once in a while with their dogs or getting steps in, or gardening, or riding in a golf cart, maybe down at the lake, but for the most part..they don't seem to be around. I will be curious to see what the addition looks like. I think he has elderly parents, maybe he is looking to move them in there at some point. I guess there is some reason they feel the need to build on to an already large probably 4 or 5 thousand square foot house.

" walking the hood every once in a while with their dogs or getting steps in, or gardening, or riding in a golf cart," I am trying to work out what a hood is? Is the golf course near you? He might be letting them extension out to asylum seekers

a hood is short for neighborhood.

@snowy22315 I thought it would be a wife carrying a car bonnet

Unless you ask, you'll never really know.

That seems like it will be large, maybe they have family moving in with them.

That is a big enough house for 3 families at least without adding on

Sounds like it could be for the elderly parents, As long as everyone is in one place things are easier,

That much square footage sounds like an estate

Elderly parents are a good guess for an addition to a house.

That could be it, or maybe they want a rental unit. I don't know.

That is a big house already, so I wonder what the extra space is for. Could be his parents like you said, that happens a lot. Curious to see how the addition turns out.
