Tell me the truth..What do you think of this house?







My view out of the side window!


We just needed more space and this seemed perfect! What do you think?

3. Yeah, I was afraid of that. We needed more space, but
since we don't have kids, I think this will do for now!

2. I'd fire the housekeeper and hire a lawn boy.
But hey--that's just me. :)

6. I don't really think I'd want to live somewhere...
that required me to keep a staff of a hundred people just to keep the place clean and the grounds kept up. But that's just me.

7. Even with that view?
These pics are of different houses. I just picked something I would like to view everyday (waterfall). This house is too huge for anyone!! :)

14. I'd prefer something on the coast, really...
I'd rather have a view of the ocean from atop a rocky cliff that leads down to a pebbled beach...bit bleak for some people, maybe, but I like it.

Either that, or a city skyline. (I'm more of an urban sort of person anyway.)

That is what that is! I obviously had just walked through the walkway when that pic was taken!

26. Yes, that is nice also, but what do you do when
you get sick of looking at the same room all of the time? See, I just go to the east wing.

31. My first impression is
that the heating bills would be horrendous!

Nice, though, not my style. A little overwhelming for my taste.

This one is more my taste:

34. The garden and the view are nice
the rest of it leaves me cold.
It really needs a porch, I think.

35. No porch. Is that the back of the house?
Not a very grand entrance. Pass.
