When I bought my house, I insisted that the realtor not show us any houses with 2-story rooms. It would be magical somewhere without seasons, but not in the mid-Atlantic.

If one can't afford new windows and good insulation, heating a house this big would be an expense. Most mid-Atlantic people want light and bright homes.

I like quirky custom homes even if dated for average standards but this one isn't cutting it.

I would (much) rather live in the Mushroom House.

My goodness. I just think if you have a house that you spend hours and hours a day in, not all of them sleeping, you need to be able to sit down in a comfortable chair.

THis looks like a house Moira Rose would live in, wearing ridiculouly uncomfrotable clothing, posing in ridiculously uncomfortable poses.

However, I would really enjoy being invited as a guest to a party at this house. That would be a fun night.

+1000

also, how the heck do you get furniture to the upper level(s) with a staircase like that? Just remove some windows and get a crane?!?!

its weird has a drain ditch out front but street view shows tottem polls. i woudl say it would be a cool house to rent out as an airbnb but there isn't really much near it to make it attractive for that use case.

In fact, I was wondering about the building off to the right. Is that an office? It can't be a two-story garage, or a garage with a guest suite, can it?

My favorite detail is that when you look at street view, there's a Subaru Forester in the driveway. I was expecting a DeLorean or something else of that nature.

A significant percentage of my parents friends (same generation, well off) drive Subaru Foresters.

They'd rather spend the money on art or travel or grandkids education. And having a nicer car isn't a big deal at that age.

It’s a guest house above garage with walkway to house
