Dual sided fireplace. One side for heating and one side for cooking.

That bathroom and kitchen is goals. Also the outdoor entertainment space. I mean pretty much the whole house is goals.

This 4/2/2721 house also has a front porch and upper balcony that I love - for under $900k. Plus, just for some of the folks here, the bathtub is not in the middle of the room or right next to a window.
That bathtub would be giving me a lot of bruises and probably a broken foot or knee because I can guarantee I'd be whacking my legs on the faucet apparatus there. My ass is wider than the space on either side to get me into that tub.

Will they take a check? On second thought, I'm not sure how to fit that many zeros on my check.

Not for sale, but an every two year fundraiser for a hospital. If you like woodwork in your interiors, this year's mansion is one to check out. Its long interactive tour, but interesting.

is McMansion Hell taking suggestions? www.weichert.com/67954360/1. why does the foyer and living room look like a hotel lobby? 2. the kitchen is big, but not big enough to put an island or a table in the middle... so just lots of space for no reason. 3. the bathrooms need no words 4. the bedrooms need no words WTF is that standing in the corner of the dining area in the kitchen?! A giant doll?? Honestly, they should blow it up and start over.

This is from a house that just sold. The inside spaces are nice, but I really love this outdoor space.

In the world of what I really want in a home, versus what I just drool over, I want this pantry.

Okay, this house just speaks to me. No, I wouldn't actually buy it, as it doesn't have a yard conducive to dogs, but, I love it enough that I just ran the math. I am refinancing my home, and the new loan will be under $400k. The real estate site (which has a track record of under-estimating in my neighborhood) has my house listed as being worth $585k. So, paying 4% realtor fees (which is what the organization I use to buy and sell my homes charges), and paying off the loan, that leaves me with $161.6k, which is 20% of $808k, so technically, I could buy this house with 20% down....
4/2/3220 for $760k

That home is beautiful, shanendoah! It's too bad I'm "allergic" to HOA's.

zibazinski - We actually went to an open house for the house in #113 today. You don't get furniture up that spiral staircase. You crane it in via the window in the room that spiral staircase leads to (because there's no other interior route to that office). I love that house even more now that I've seen it. It is absolutely not the right house for us, given that there's no yard for the dogs, and it triggers C's fear of heights in numerous places - it's built on the side of the hill and there are many sheer drops all the way down to the creek at the bottom of the property. But the interior has amazing flow. Even though all the public spaces are each a different level - kitchen on one, dining room on another, living room on another, with a secondary living room a couple steps down from that, they are done in a circular manner, which makes them all open and accessible to each other, so the person in the kitchen is still able to be part of what is going on in the living room. It was just a fabulous house, and our second favorite of the ones we saw today. (We randomly decided to just go look at open houses today.)

Am I the only one that would like to pick and chose from different parts all these postings? Like the view from one, the LR from another house, the location (taking the preferred view along) etc.

nope, I'm the same way - I want a Franken-house.
