My brain can't process what 6,250-sq.-ft. is like IRL. WTF, JLo?

Good eye!  Yes, Society Hill .

I was going to let this thread die, but I have to share this (heart).  This is the first time I've ever loved an actual mansion.

[raangoli]

I want to go to there! The floor in that library is amazing!

[UnderProtest]

I'd take it for the wine room. But does anyone else find the placement of pictures a bit odd?

sfy that's so nice of you to offer to buy me that mansion! I'll take it next week.

I want the kitchen from the second post! I looked at the starting price of these homes and they are $725K. In the suburbs!!! WTF?

Wow. I can see from the yard that the plots aren't even that big.  If these were in town, I'd absolutely get it and more in some places, but that seems a bit high for most places OTP, at least depending on how far outside they are.

sfy, the second set of pics are in Alpharetta. The first set were in East Cobb. The ones in Dunwoody start at $825K are already 50% sold out. Bwahahahaha. Nope.

Our neighborhood is in a tizzy since a lot of execs from several companies who recently moved here are looking around the area. I guess those are the people buying these houses?

I agree with you, these prices for OTP would be a hell to the naw.

Oh!  Well, okay, I guess can I see that.  East Cobb can charge a premium because of the schools, and Dunwoody has always been oddly overpriced to me (I don't really get it, but everyone I know who lives there is in love with it, so I guess that's why).  Alpharetta makes sense, because of what exactly you said.  The tech companies are all trying to "Google-fy" their campuses now--state of the art gyms, walking trails, etc., and for some reason they love Alpharetta.  I can think of few and actually, one that will be finished in the next two weeks.  So random.  I suppose the builders are expecting a boom.  Very interesting.

I have a "thing" for stone houses...I have since I was a kid. Anyway there is one in my neighborhood that I've always pined after not knowing anything about it. I saw it was for sale & nearly drove off the road in excitement. But alas, out of our price range...lol. It did not disappoint though. I love my neighborhood & probably will stay forever, but it'd be even better if I had this house!

It's all school related. I grew up in E Cobb and that is cheap for that area. I am always surprised how expensive the new homes are where I am, and that is ITP.

Just for you sfy. I found another one.

Holy crap.  The rent.  You could buy our house using one year of that rent.  I clearly do not live in that posh an area.
