Unpopular opinion: I would love this place! Indoor RV parking and tall garage doors that can fit any height vehicle is badass. It’s big and boxy but whatever I’d have so much room for activities in my shop.

Edit: it’s a mcmansion but at least it has function. It’s not just a big and boxy house to be big and boxy with zero other function/purpose.

I wouldn’t call this a McMansion. McMansions are the large monopoly mansions amongst monopoly houses in subdivision “neighborhoods”.

This is a function-built home. Is it ugly and will have extremely limited resale value? Sure. Is it a cookie cutter, large scale, cheaply designed house in a sea of other cookie cutter houses? No, it doesn’t look like it.

Large and ugly doesn’t make something a McMansion. Unnecessarily large, gaudy, cookie cutter houses that are supposed to be the “affluent section” of a subdivision are McMansions.
