      Presumably in terms of floor space, amenities and location because in terms of design and style that house is horrible. I can also only imagine that it is laid out awfully.

        Idk about the location, but it’s a huge property, a huge house, has a pond, a full-sized soaking tub, and a bunch of cool shit that you can’t get for less than several million dollars around here. Plus 7 bedrooms is pretty awesome. I guess I’m just impressed how much you can get for the money in other parts of the country. A little 1200 sq ft house is a million dollars here. It’s depressing tbh.

      Holy shit, yeah. But it’s definitely still a McMansion when you note that most of the first-floor flooring is poured concrete and the second floor all plywood.

      This is a potentially beautiful house, but needs a whole hell of a lot more work than you’d see at first glance. I was looking at a (much smaller) house in my area like that. If I’m going near the top of my budget (which is admittedly lower than this listing) I need a house that’s move-in ready. That means value-store rugs on top of all those floors for however many years I can’t imagine.

      And 7 bathrooms is stupid for 7 bedrooms.

        One thing I’ve noticed about mansions is that they seem to have a ridiculous number of bathrooms. Since this is clearly masquerading as a mansion, it needs all 7 bathrooms at least! Lol
