    The eye goes to the gray area in the middle...all the terrible lines point to it... and the front door, entry is off to the right in an alcove. This hurts to look at.

    Also those vents that don't match the patterned paint stand out like sore thumbs. They should have been painted dark at least to give the illusion of windows or something.

    I was cruising Toll Brothers for a minute (basically torture porn.) To me the plans have actually gotten better: fewer wasted angles, rooms you can actually furnish... but MY GOD are the elevations worse than ever. It's as if each house is a townhouse block, or two regular-sized houses halfway through mitosis.

    I don't understand the point. It's not about efficiency, so it must be some piece of data that says "make house look complicated = $$$$$."

    parent
    13 points Tasty-Beautiful-9679

    That's interesting - Toll Brothers in my area exclusively do relatively small (1700-2200sqft) houses that are pretty simple and inoffensive from the outside, but then have gargantuan doors and ceilings on the inside. Doors are like 9ft tall and ceilings are 10ft with a cathedral going higher in the living room.

    It's so bizarre being in the front bedroom/office which is taller than it is wide.

    They do larger houses here, maybe 3100-4500sq ft. I went with my son and DIL who were looking. Interiors were fantastic but the exterior of one had NINE separate finishes.

    But why?? did they get a sample pack of finishes they had to use up or something? That's nuts.

    Usually the exterior finishes are a choice from the buyer.

    Why would you want all windows in a subdivision on 1/8 acre lots where you can pass sugar through your window to your neighbor because you can't stand the thought of touching grass?

    I'm the one in the family subscribed to this sub, my wife has other interests. This picture was on my monitor as she walked by, I've never seen her have such an immediate, visceral reaction as she did to it.

    "That is so hideous! What were they thinking?" Then she pointed out everything she hated about it (pretty much everything). While I don't like it either, I don't have the same visceral reaction, I just think it looks stupid.

    Yes. And the one special garage that has stone wrapped around the door versus the other two sad plain garage doors. So, I'm thinking the king gets the stone wrapped garage door. The wife and ex wife get the others.

    I do not understand the design decision of emphasizing the garage more than the front door. I bet this is really shitty feng shui.

    They’ll use the garage for storage. The cars will be out front in the driveway. Think of the garage facade as a picture frame for their monster trucks.

    It's somewhat near 150 a square foot which is getting reasonable. But could drop near 600 k then it will sell. The problem is everybody wants to retire on one sale. And some are.
