Don’t think that just because you are going to see a culdesac lot in a tract called “Seabreeze Farms” that it implies anything about the size of the yard:
Backyard of the Year
by Jim the Realtor | Aug 29, 2011 | Bubbleinfo TV, Carmel Valley | 8 comments
What happened to the Leucadia Grand Opening?
Yikes!
Too many halls and walls upstairs. Only a family with 4 or 5 children about the same age would benefit from that layout. And said family would NOT benefit from the back yard!
The target audience for that place is bachelor book collectors.
Seriously, Jim, have you ever had a buyer with this wish list–especially at $1.1-$1.25 million?
1. A cement backyard
2. Neighbors you can reach out and touch
3. A dizzying floor plan upstairs
4. View from the master bathtub
5. Mostly carpet in the master bath
Yeah, I know these were on the top of my list when I was house hunting *sarcasm*…
“Too many halls and walls upstairs.”
Yeah, and I just can’t believe that all those curved walls are an efficient use of space.
The very definition of a “McMansion”.
I disagree – you couldn’t get a drive-through lane around that house! 🙂
Curved walls are appealing to look at (within limitations) but they are so impractical. As someone said they are hugely inefficient, and you just can’t hang anything on them (pictures/artwork). You have to find just the right furniture to use with them. In short they are a liability when they are in abundance.
Nice to have a little architectural deviation here and there to keep things interesting, but I would stay away from a house that had this many of the curved wall “features”.
I think you’ll see architects and builders move away from them and find that these “features” date the house in the future like avocado appliances, shag rugs and ceramic tile.
Right on Susie.
That’s the way I’d think about this home. High price but not for the feature set million dollar home buyers expect.
You’d have to really want the neighborhood and large square footage to buy this one.
