I know it must be worth a lot for the area he lives in but it's still amusing they call his two story plain looking house a "palace."

- bovermyer 13y agoAnd "pompous," don't forget pompous. My house in Minneapolis is easily twice the size of that. I wonder what they'd think of me?
- walshemj 13y agomm last year I almost brought a listed building and it's mentioned in pevenser (the definitive guide to uk architecture) - obviously the SF mob would have me guillotined.
- madaxe_again 13y agoI work in eCommerce, and I live in/own a Grade I listed house that has several pages in Pevsner. I am, clearly, satan incarnate.

- esw 13y agoI thought exactly the same thing. I just looked it up on Zillow to check out the lot size, and noticed that it still had photos from the last time it was sold (in 2010). They may have done the same thing, and confused the rather overwrought decorating sensibilities of the previous owner with the Google developer.
