I posted this home quite some time ago, but it’s finally almost finished. I was in the area and figured,  “You know who I haven’t triggered in a while? Oppo!”

“Or you can trade it all for what’s in this box...”

main house is like 5,800 sq ft...

Additional detached garage with loft atop. I wish they built homes that were just a living space above a nice garage... Tough sell for my wife though.

Enough parking for all the cars I would never properly repair.

Shiny garage.

Some kind of fancy garage floor.

Nice guest suite...

Fun fact: the shower door cost more than my Celica

Gaze upon my balls

Yes, good, let the balls balls your balls

Medieval dining crown!

Spoooooky...

Fuuuuuutuuuuure

You don’t even want to know what this cost...

I think this was an 11' vanity...

Yes folks, they actually sprang for frosted glass so you can walk around naked in your bathroom in peace.

I never would, but two sets of washers and dryers would be pretty convenient.

I fully admit that I would love to have this closet — maybe scaled down 75%

... as it is bigly.

Some good details you don’t see enough. Like solid slab tops...

... and dovetailed maple drawer boxes...

... and “facial” continuous toe kicks around the entire closet... I guess I could have just said baseboard.

Some of the kitchen...

Another dining room...

Mandatory illuminated chandelier shot

Interesting powder sink concept... Still better than the bowl.

Usually the mud room is in the hallway in a little nook. No, these people actually get a separate mud room.

Thanks for looking!

Ah nice, more lovely PNW “architecture”. At least the finishes look nice.

Techdork or mysterious money “investor”/”entrepreneur”?

I’m pretty sure I have that same hand held shower head in my master. Works well.

That closet...my wife would leave me for that closet. And that laundry room is fantastic.

Are those built in cupboards in the garage?

Not yet sold, but since this is the east side of Evergreen Drive, I'm expecting a mid 30s white couple who are "self-employed"

I hope it languishes on the market for awhile and causes some ire for the seller.

Seems about right. Crazy.

The loan calculator said that was too much to finance, but if I take a milllion over 30 years at 5% and take that times 5, that’s a $27k monthly mortgage payment.

Unfortunately the market seems to be demanding them. I love that this house used dark wood and grey tiles. Kitchens shouldn't be bright white everything... I'm imagining the billions of stains and smudges they will catch in five years. But when you're this rich, who cares...

Wild, but buyers for homes like those don’t finance... Imagine having so much money to sit around and decide, "Hmmm I think I'll buy a house today... Or maybe some Skittles... Nah, house."

I would like ONE nice bath. Last remodeled in the 70s... But I look at the budget and I'm like, "Screw it, this is fine."

They’ll still give you work - even if the market slumped, I think there’d be a lag as greed would keep hopes going for awhile.  I think you’ll be ok, Seattle has to be one of the most solid markets in the country, if not the world.

I have three sets of washers/dryers (because vacation rentals) and it’s the bees knees. Three loads of laundry at one time makes laundry day fly by.

I actually kind of like it. I’m not an architect or anything, but the lines are clean, architectural feature placement/proportions are pleasing to look at, and it looks like some thought was actually put into it. But I guess  in the end it’s all subjective.

Severely underpaid people whose bodies  are breaking down. My friend’s wife was a cleaner for two years. Cleaning million dollar homes for 13 bucks an hour, what a life...

Look, I could live above a garage. Just give me both an internal and external stairwell, as well as a heated garage, and space for 2 cars (and maybe a motorcycle.)

Wait, fuck, almost forgot having fiber to the home.

I suggested having our shower gutted and getting a full ceramic shower to my wife. She didn’t completely shut it down.

There many things I like about that, and oh so many nice details , but is there any color inside? I hear the weather is depressing up there and all, but it just feels like the inside is missing some pieces of flair, or something.

I’m sure when it’s staged with furniture and A R T , it will look much more lively.

I’m buying a house whose bathrooms look like the bathroom of your elementary school (assuming your elementary school was built in 1952). Brown and green subway tiles and all.

The 70s would be a revelation.

I too wish they made apartment-over-garages as stand alone houses. It would be perfect for me.

Premium is $3.01 at the station down the street from me. Cheapest 87 nearby is $2.19 per gasbuddy.

I generally like that modern styling - but the one thing that bugs me, especially up here where is rains all the time, is that it doesn’t have a roof.  I’ve seen a few with a basic shed type roof at the top with a nice big overhang and not only do I prefer the styling but it’s going to protect the structure 1000% better... (or I should just chill ‘cause I’m never going to have a $5mil house...)

Dr. Zoidberg - RIP Oppo > wafflesnfalafel 11/15/2018 at 21:55

My major beef with no roofs is no attic... You need to use a special type of insulation which is basically unserviceable onc e the ceiling is finished.

Yeah, I know, just thought it’d be funny.

I’m guessing there are some who are heavily leveraged, attempting to keep up with the Joneses...
