God I want this house so bad.

It's near Town Hill, ME, but I'm not sure.

Ash for grass??? Blinding white??? Also the neighborhood roads are a nightmare.

I love the way this house looks. The designer has some hits and misses, but this one is definitely a smash hit for me!

This is one of those that could have been good if they just thought about it a bit deeper, and used the space more intelligently. If you play the Sims, you aren't suddenly adequate to design and build a house.

Reviewing an even blend of McMansions, recent insurance write-offs, and incomprehensible follies.

I hate when homes are built with tall ceilings but don't fill out the space right. It feels so empty and garbage on the inside, let alone the shitty paneling on the outside with basically 0 landscaping. Yuck!

I really don't like the interior on this one. XD It looked like naked plywood at first.

If you like a huge parkinglot in front of your house, and really shitty facade and fake balcony(s), well, this is the house for you! And... a mosquito farm during the summer!

Here's the listing!

Slam dunk McMansion. About as McMansion as it gets without just having an entire grass outside and zero other plants. Ugh, these kinds of houses cause me pain. So much wasted space and resources and water...

This one is feeling like it'll whither away in the storms and water updraft. That's just me, though. Pain.

Also the inside is waaaaay too ostentatious.

I don't think I would call this a McMansion fully, but it's very very close. If you don't agree, I can change the title!!!

It's mostly the roofing and needless columns.

Edit:

thank you mihnt for the listing link and location info!

This one has a whole story!!

"The guy who owns all the construction equipment next door built it for his daughter. The town gave a stop work order on it because he didn't follow the building code or bylaws. For example he cleared all the trees right to the edge of the pond which is against the rules. That's the story/rumor that I heard. "

Basically it's just sitting there now because the guy wont get rid of it and the city won't let him finish it. I hate that he ruined a lot of natural wetland, that pisses me off.

A Community about large, cheaply built, suburban homes with design flaws and a lack of architectural integrity also known as “McMansions.” On Thursdays we celebrate the opposite: good suburban architectural design.

Based off the famous subreddit r/mcmansionhell, we will essentially do all the same here, as is over there. Please do your best and crosspost if you need too!

We need mods!! Please please help!

A Short Guide

Friends at c/badrealestate!

Here are the rules:

  1. Posts can be about ugly houses in general
  2. Post appropriately and with correct tags WITHIN the title so it is easy to search. -->Tags: "Thursday Design Appreciation" or "HouseTDA", "Just Ugly", "Shitpost", "Certified McMansion™", "Discussion/Debate", and "Interior" are available.
  3. All post subjects must be single family homes -->Only post suburban, single family homes. No apartments or duplexes, etc. The community is focused on specifically traditional suburban architecture.
  4. Don't post addresses or other easily identifiable information unless it is publicly listed. -->Keep the information about the property you are posting basic and general. However, if the home is listed on a public website you are permitted to post a link to the public listing.
  5. Direct Images Only, no links please. -->Post correctly cropped, direct images and not links to websites. Image hosting links, such as Imgur, are an exception, but we still prefer a direct image. Zillow house page, for example, is ok if it directly links to the photos and such.
  6. No Spam -->No posting an excessive amount in a row on the same day or posting the same comment on several posts at once. We have seen it, we just didn't react to it. Please understand that.
  7. No Screenshots -->Crop your photos correctly.
  8. Thursday is special. To celebrate that, you can post nice houses you appreciate.
