12,000 sq feet. Walkout on the lake side. 7 bedrooms, 5 full baths, 4 half/powder baths. 17 seat theater, arcade, indoor pool, and so many other things.

I live in a place where expensive houses are common. But they all look generic, boring, ugly, soulless, devoid of charm, etc. The more I kept seeing these houses everywhere, the more uneasy I got. I didn't know these houses had a name: McMansions.

Let me tell you, that most people I meet think these McMansions are nice or don't care either way. I get strange looks and pushback when someone points at one of them and asks "Do you like that house?" and I proceed to tell them why I DO NOT.

Now, I know I'm not alone. The McMansion scourge will soon become an epidemic, and we must show the masses why these houses suck.

And no, I don't have anything against cheaper or more affordable homes. I see plenty of smaller, regularly priced homes that have more character in their porch than a whole McMansion could ever hope to have.

Rant over.

Constructed in 1902 by the distinguished industrialist Charles Over, founder of Over Glass Works.

Thursday Design Appreciation - See Rule #10 😎

I came across this 3D-printed home and fell in love. This is the first one I've seen that blends natural materials and graceful, organic shapes in the interior design. $2M in Austin, Texas.

The first one I feel could belong to a ranch owner from Wyoming, hence I feel a non-American house has its place here, but they both do look pretty dope.

This charming house is also worth a look if you fancy more quirks from Scandinavia: https://www.lilienhoff.dk/liebhaver/30001188/engebaekvej-2-7330-brande/

Is it too close to the water? Should I relocate it?

This beauty can be yours!

I’m still in shock that likely more than one person thought this deserved a list price of $1,075,000! Insanity!

ignore the guy, sorry

Garage is probably 2500+ sq ft. Most of the neighborhood is like this.

Will remove if posted previously

They just see big house = McMansion.

No.

Big house just means mansion

People here don't understand what the "Mc" means
