Garage overload

[ExtraSlow]

The worst render. The. Worst.

This is one of the reasons I'm happy I'm poor.

Buy used shit of Kijiji for the house and DGAF about what people think.

[nismodrifter]

That's an EI build for sure. Funky roof angles, cheesy lighting, horrible design throughout, horrible decor. Builder grade everything but they don't care because IT'S BIG AND HAS A MOVIE THEATER AND A POOL BUDDY LIKE DRAKES FAWKN HOUSE...........BUDDY.

The asphalt really does it for me, gives off that Walmart parking lot vibe.

"Four. No less than four different wood finishes will do."... "And then, throughout the rest of the interior spaces, we'll use three, four, maybe five other wood finishes... So many, it will be difficult to bitch about for anyone viewing pictures online. It will be magnifique."

You sure that's wood? This post looks like exterior metal soffit to me. A true wood worker would have mitred the corners of the post, not used a "channel" to cover the ends.



It's all over the place. I like industrial, but this is just weird.

That's an excellent example.

If a good interior designer took a run at it and the build was done by a good builder with premium finishings, it would cost 4x what it did to build.

I'm very sure it's not wood... In my post, I said "wood finishes" and figured the same trim in the bedroom was duradek. Did I miss it, or do they those god awful tiles with faux wood finish somewhere? I bet they do.

The house is hilarious. I actually had it saved on realtor.ca because I find it entertaining to see how long these piles of shit languish on the market and how many price reductions they end up taking. I'm guessing this place is at least a year + and will probably see a few $500k+ reductions...

The real fun is when the listing disappears from MLS and you start guessing why... Did someone come in and offer $2mm and the sellers took it? Did it get foreclosed like that other (strangely similar) gem that was right off the SWRR? Was the listing ultimately pulled because the seller doesn't understand why no one wants his monstrosity? So many possibilities.

That place has the worlds saddest fire pit setup for that kind of money

[benyl]

you mean the costco special? The folding chairs are a nice touch.

[killramos]

I’d still buy it. But like I said, not for $4MM

[Xtrema]

Big TV but that's the worst location for it.

I think the only things about that place I truly dislike are the furnishings. Too loud.

Yea the bar lighting is weird but I think that’s mostly bad photography.

I’d own that, not for $4MM. But I like a lot about it.

There's a lot to like. I just can't get past those lights. But it does scream builder grade, and not in the ironic sense.

[Gman.45]

I like the indoor pool/room, so long as the purple lighting was shot out.

One thing that made me laugh was the leopard blanketed bed in the middle of the home theater room. I've never seen a bed in a theater room before.

What precisely qualifies a home as having "builder grade" materials? Is there a "buyers grade" which is superior? How does one know/check on this, to avoid getting cheap/crappy whatevers in a home?

"Affording it" and the sellers asking price are two different things, which I think sparked the conversation.

Priced appropriately for what it is, and people might still question the taste of the sellers, but the ridicule would be dialed back (not me though; fuck the dad of whoever conceived this monstrosity).

Price it at a multiple of what it's probably worth, and it becomes a fun game of "what the fuck are they thinking with that?".

Acreage living ain't my thang, so none of them are what I'd want, but if you look at the other listings out that way, it's pretty clear which one is builder grade crap and which ones at least have semblance of thoughtful design, landscaping and higher quality materials.

I think I just don’t have taste lol
