I thought you were talking Aircraft

A square metre bathroom in an A380 ? Sounds pretty big haha .

I thought it was a church!

When the amount of floor makes me think of those motorised sweepers you sometimes see in shopping malls when you pop in late in the evening when everything apart from the supermarket is closed, that's probably too much floor.

What surprises me about the huge ensuite is the double vanity looks like a fairly typical double vanity, I can imagine when two people are using it at once they'd still need to watch their elbows. With all that space why not make the actual functional spaces more generous?

For example something like this, only larger. I've been in this display home and I quite liked the concept of a central door and bath and everything else is his and hers, but it was on the small side to fit so much in and the dark colours made it seem even smaller.

In the last picture , there is a church steeple -- the church is the next street over , and their property must back onto this place .

The more I think about it though , I reckon its a misprint -- I'd say it is most likely 38 squares -- even that is about 6 metres by 6 metres and is huge -- 380 is a pretty big house !

Hi Pottsy 9 And a bit, I think it is an obscene amount of house unless it is for a bout roue generations. Those six bathrooms is crazy... fancy cleaning them all. The ensuite pictured looks to have another vanity to the left too? And how many bedrooms? I 'spose there are same number of sitting/social areas too... My guess is the people living there do not like each other so have arranged it to avoid every seeing another occupant! The one pictured above, thank you Macyjean, has so much going on with the ceiling, floor grate and everything: not my taste at all. Interesting to see what others build with too much and more money than sense!! Cheers Margot

The whole 'downstairs' seems to be bedrooms -- theres actually 8 bathrooms and 6 bedrooms . The top 2 floors ( admittedly they are only 1/2 the size of that 'downstairs' ) seem to be kitchen , dining , entertainment , theres an office for working from home , etc .

Yeah , its basically just showing off IMO too -- I guess we all do that to a certain degree , but this is getting way over the top .

Just as an aside , when my girlfriend and I were looking at houses last year , we looked at a $12 million place , especially when we found out it was the 2018 Master Builders Home Of The Year , just for inspiration . It was absolutely beautifully done , although it was bit too white for my liking , but it had beautiful stonework in places , timber feature walls in others , an amazing pool , gym , media room with $50k of sound , etc .

And then when we looked , it was sitting on 8 hectares ( 20 acres ) 600 metres from the city boundary , with olives growing on about 3/4 the area , and that was bringing in something like $80k a year ( contract grown ) , but of course , in 10-15 years , if you had the knowhow and contacts , you could have subdivided and at least doubled your money , and still had the main house !

The only 2 problems would be convincing the bank in the first place , and then paying the mortgage until then .

But this place doesn't even seem to have that ability -- too flash to turn into a boarding house or an office . But there does seem to be a market for houses in that price range or size -- there seems to be several built each year , and several more bought and sold .

Showing my age, I find squares easier to comprehend than square metres.

I love the sound of "beautiful stonework" and "timber feature walls' but not the subdividing idea, sensible though it seems, I want all that land for gardens and horses.

I just found the pics of the House Of The Year online .

We definitely weren't serious -- well , we loved the place , but $12 mil at 7% is close on $1mil a year , and we definitely aren't cash buyers .

That last house is at least residential scale. The first, well the lonely orange thing in the great room says it all for size, even the stylist gave up!

Ha ha ha Kate I think I get what your saying in the great room with the rectangular orange thing in the middle of a mat and nowhere! Looks crazy to me!! I do like the look of this one above much better and hope that glass wall is to the north and a lovely view too!
