Should I put an offer in on this house? pics included

I really like the view, but it may have too many bathrooms.. tough to keep clean. Here are the stats:

6 bedrooms
11 bathrooms
25,000 sq ft
built in 1994
on 5 acres of land
great views
no mellow roos or HOA fees

what do you think bros?


read this.. its worth it:
On entering, one drives through massive bronze gates down a long drive of granite cobblestones brought to San Diego from New York in fifteen railroad cars, and originally used as ballast in ships coming from Europe. Lining the drive and the perimeter of the property are walls clad in Santa Barbara Sandstone with bronze detailing, taking 5 artisans 3 years to build. The American flag flies proudly as one approaches the circular drive and porte-cochere. A fragment of an 18th century stone surround ushers the visitor in to the head of the dual staircase which leads to the central courtyard where one is greeted by an 18th century lion head fountain originally from a fort at Aix-en-Provence in the south of France. The courtyard is a perfect location for protected outdoor entertaining with access to three bathroom facilities. From the limestone courtyard, access the side and back of the home, past the tennis court, outdoor fireplace and barbecue, cleverly hidden in the mouth of a large lion head and fashioned after a fireplace in an old French Chateau. Beyond the lap pool and Jacuzzi, a lavish terrace with balustrades of limestone quarried in Utah & a 1920`s Italian fountain transported from an old Pittsburgh estate await. Take a stroll by a rolling green lawn, rose garden, and gazebo from which to sit and enjoy the panorama of the ocean, coastline, and the majesty of this grand estate. There is a separate guest suite, a gymnasium with bath and steam shower, staff quarters consisting of two bedrooms, two baths a sitting room and kitchen, and garage spaces for five vehicles. The main home is entered through massive bronze and glass doors. The 29 by 30-foot foyer, with 31-foot ceilings and two antique carved oak Ionic columns, is graced by a double stairway to the upper level where one finds three bedrooms, four baths and a gallery. From the front entry, the eye is drawn through the foyer, past the formal dining room to the pool, garden and ocean beyond.

oh I nearly forgot.. asking price of $24,500,000 that is reduced from 29,000,000

I bet I could get it for 22 if I came in with cash.
 
lol, who do you think you are, bill gates
 
i like the pool, nice and big.

great house for entertaining.
 
we should all get it, and basically move the EF headquarters there.
 
wtf do you need 11 bathrooms for??? I mean i can see if you are one of those super crappers that always clogs the toilet, and you just can't seem to find a plunger anywhere, but shit, for 29 mil, I better have a god damned electronic golden plunger that's voice activated and does its business itself :o

as long as i get to sleep with diff IA every nite
 
it's crazy how some peeps live...totally random luck. Surely some peeps work hard, climb the ladder, etc...but mostly it is luck
 
How expensive would be just to get that land with that view? That's the hard part.

You can send out proposals and get bids and probably get that house built for a mill or less.

So at $25 million -- that's major profits if u find a buyer.

3 of them are outdoors... accessable from the courtyard and pool area.. so when entertaining people don't need to go into the main house to take a shit.. you don't want to be out enjoying the view and have to walk inside.

Then every room has its town bathroom.

Then every floor has a bathroom that is not connected to a room.

deal. we are gonna store them in the guest quarters, men only in the main house.. we can bring women in, but they won't be living in there.. that way we stay drama free.

did you read the post bro?

for 1 million you aren't getting 5 artisians for 3 years to build the wall.. or the artifacts and shit they incorporated into the construction!

I've seen million dollar construction deals... you don't get that for anything close to 1 million.

Nah. This isn't a high-rise apartment building with it's own issues. Developers usually like to "pad" the cost of developing the property to increase it's value.

That house isn'st $25 million cuz it cost $23 million to make. It's $25 million cuz of it's location, esthetics, beauty and what the market will probably pay for it.

As a developer: With GC's bidding against each other -- you can probably get some deals. My parents house in Canada, about half that size -- is just as grand, but didn't cost anywhere near a mill. Labour, materials, etc. prices are pretty standard. It's hard to pad those bills as a construction company.

On the market -- it can go for a mill cuz of what people will probably "value" it as and want to pay for it.

I agree with you that the house is nowhere near 20 million...

I'd say constructio on that home was in the 5-10 million dollar range.

If you were to buy that land undeveloped, but zoned residential.. you could get it for 15-20million.
