      Good luck finding your white gloves in there! Reminds me of the Absolutely Fabulous episode, "The New Best Friend." 🙂

      From the outside, it looks like a mega church. The foyer looks like a great place to roller skate!

            I'm torn, because, with a car port added over the entrance, and inside some nice Persian rugs and choice furniture to add colour and texture, I reckon it will be absolutely fabulous.
            Certainly an austere blank canvas at the moment.

              @wtg omg that’s wild.

              Maybe they should fill it with furniture designed by the person who did the furniture for the ShiroKuro sushi place I posted a while back. It would be like living in the Take On Me video.

                The foo-foo Provincial furniture looks ridiculous.

                The first laundry room with the white appliances was designed by someone who has never done laundry. The second laundry room has black appliances - really the only color in the house. I suspect they were brought in from a previous house to save money.

                The kitchen looks like AI - there’s no kitchen sink and the work triangle is non-existent. The plants photograph gray for some reason. Very strange.

                The garage is absurdly small for a house of that size, and it’s hard to believe that they never finished the drywall.

                Looks like they ran out of money when it came time to install vanities. I suspect they’re stock Home Depot units and if they aren’t they’re perfect copies.

                      That place makes me want to take a bag of cans of spray paint of different colors to it.
                      I like white walls, but...
                      Adding some Oriental rugs, etc. might make it ok.

                        Not sure I want all that stone floor for my piano.
                        Toilet too close to a wall, may feel claustrophobic.
                        Garage not really connected to the house, may get wet when walking from garage to house when it rains.

                              Imagine having a budget of 1.7 million to hire an architectural firm to buy whatever kind of lot/ land and steer all of your budget into something you could think of as your dream house.

                              It wouldn't take me a minute to decide to do that instead of buying some AI looking monstrosity.
