I don't know how to post a photo to this, but it's next to some lovely restrained 1920s brick colonials.

The neighbors must weep at all 8000 square feet.

Yes, thanks, 10:02. I love these posts about how McMansions sell well - because that piece of crap on Goldsboro near River has been sitting empty forever. Unless someone finally bought it? What a fugly builder spec eyesore.

They periodically stage fake "estate sales" out of houses like these where you can buy some marked down Persian rugs and objet d'art.
This particular house looms on a hill precipitously across the street from a giant church, and as is typical has zero trees on the lot.

My parents have what one might call a mansion....on a 1.5 acre lot, 1 acre of which is wooded. I think if your lot is denuded and you encroach your neighbor on every side that you are in the McMansion category by default.

This is the oddest thread I have ever seen here. Most of these have no garage or a one or two car garage. HOW ON EARTH could that possible qualify as ANY kind of mansion? Where on earth did you grow up? In a tent? Wow, the jealousy here is just oozing. Are there that many bitter people here? Yikes.

They are not mansions. They are McMansions. Read the thread for the difference.

I have posted many of these and could not be less jealous. I prefer my 19th century farmhouse, thankyouverymuch.

16:28 looks like someone is going to step out that top window between the columns and fall to the ground.

Man, these are just large houses on fairly large lots.

A McMansion means the house is new, squished on 90% of its lot, and is likely surrounded by all the same or all tiny homes on similarly sized lots.

Read the thread. McMansion has two meanings.
