I like the more “ open” kitchen feel better of the new homes, which is drawing me to a newer home vs an older resale.

One thing to add I don’t recall previously mentioned, concrete block/pre-cast construction will likely do a better job of blocking interior noise than frame.
Good luck with your search!
