[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Easily fixable, but nothing makes me giggle more than McMansions with two big pointy topiaries in huge urns in front, framing the door.

Usually the McMansions are "Italianate."[/quote]

Wow, do you say that about other countries?  That's racist.[/quote]

:roll: [/quote]

Interesting.  [/quote]

NP. Yes, Italianate architecture is very interesting.  Go troll elsewhere.

I believe PP is referring to the Tuscan look that was popular in the 1990’s . Those houses did not age well. [/quote]

With the pointy topiary/junipers...[/quote]

That house has a lot of nice qualities - the pool and center room.  Take out the gaudy paint and decor, and it could be really nice.  Too big for me, but someone will like it. [/quote]

I can't believe this because usually I hate these big gaudy houses - but I sort of like this one. I think it's because of the gaudy paint and decor, though. Makes it look like someone was having a good time with the place, not just trying to impress the neighbors. Also now I covet an indoor pool.[/quote]

It looks very well done for the "go big or go home" category. Plus, they have a sense of humor. The stair art.  :lol:

The ornate framed selfie in this room (kitchen?) is funny too.

I wish I could read the whole quote on the floor.
