I would couldn’t sleep in this bedroom. Maybe I’m old-fashioned, but this house is similar to the office technology company.
This is *exactly* the type of home I wish would vanish from the face of the Earth. Has no business being called a home unless it’s a retirement home for Medusa’s victims.
I have to reluctantly agree with previous commenters. The architecture is actually very sophisticated and well done, technically. But I wouldn’t be able to live in either. I’m probably not sophisticated enough. However, I would not turn it down as a gift. And a good location, for Montgomery Co. denizens.
This would be interesting, if we hadn’t already seen it thousands of times in hundreds of different locations around the world. I see nothing unique or creative here. A multi-colored/textured exterior, white walls, Mondrian-inspired windows…blech. At least there are a few natural materials thrown in, but overall it’s terribly cold, and boring.
I would respect it more if the architect had at least tried to make it fit into the surroundings (think Falling Water). As it is, it’s just a bunch of boxes set down in the woods.
ITS A VAPIRE HOUSE!!!!! ITS ALL ERIE ON THE OUTSIDE WITH THE DEAD LEAVES AND THE REDS AND GREYS ON THE OUTSIDE!!! I THINK IT WOULD BE KINDA FUN TO LIVE THERE!
It’s the button just to the left of “a”. Press it once.
I like it. I like the multiple textures and the different colors on the exterior. I like the cargo container motif. the decorator definitely followed a post modern motif. The furniture looks clean and fits in well. I think the lot is terrible. It is a terrible lot for this type of house. Would have been nicer on a more isolated property. The neighborhood looks completely unimpressive. A bunch of bland houses on small lots. I really think that the inflated price is a reflection of how the Washington DC area is populated by overpaid bureaucrats and lobbyists. There is no way this is a seven million house and lot.
We have overpaid bureaucrats and lobbyists, other cities have overpaid scumbag corporate executives. I’d say we’re in similar company.
This is not in the least bit welcoming, and as Grrrowler said, it’s been done so many times in so many places. I guess that means people actually buy them, but I can’t figure out who. The dead leaves and stained bare concrete are not helping this listing’s appearance.
I’m from the area, and obviously I keep a closer eye on local real estate than other areas, and I can tell you this has been languishing on the market for quite a while. Some more price drops will be in order if they want this to sell.
