[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For 9000 sqft, absolutely a two-story foyer. It makes your house look grand and inviting (which is part of these reason you're building a house of this size). We built a 8000 sqft (3 levels) and has a two-story foyer. It looks stunning. Ignore the sour grapes complaining it's a waste of space. You'll be living in the house, not them.[/quote] Can I ask why you didn't go with a 3-story foyer? I built a 12,000sf home with a 3-story foyer and turret and really think it improves the space. Maybe you can add on?[/quote] Ugh. You should be embarrassed to have anything under 20,000 and without a moat. The floods when it rains more than half an inch are a total bitch on the wine cellar and movie theater flooring, but these are the sacrifices one must make to live in faux grandeur. [/quote] The 12,000 sqft house is just the guest cottage. It's attached to my main home by a drawbridge (made of hardiplank and the finest in curated Home Depot "stone") over the moat. And the foyer doesn't even have a ceiling, it reaches to the stars![/quote] How in the world do you heat that in the winter? Your bills must be through the roof. Oh wait....[/quote]
