Has the WOW factor. Lots of trees for beauty, shade,privacy, songbirds. No home says welcome like nature as she calls you into her backyard with a never ending array of color and foliage. I'm ready to go in now. I can't even imagine the feeling one would have when living in this house. Every window looks out to beauty. Every single one.Every room displays an array of culture and the vision of adventure
A lot of class and savvy design went into these bedrooms! Look at that crown molding throughout this estate, and they weren't afraid to put some color on the walls! I hate the places that have white and beige walls and ceiling all through the estate!
The house itself is beautiful. The furnishings make it look tacky and cheap. It’s a shame to spend that much on a house only to cheapen it.

Give an example of cheap and tacky furnishings that you saw in this house. The furnishings that I saw were made of gorgeous hand-carved wood, and had a classic look.

@@wisecracker3343 I had already explained that the house was filled with gorgeous genuinely hand-carved wood. And the only response you could give of a tacky example was the golden McDonald's statue, which was a truly retarded example. At least it was not made of cheap garbage plastic like most things are made nowadays. It was made of genuine metal, which is of supreme quality. So to confirm my own original statement, there was in fact nothing tacky in this house. Everything was done to the absolute highest level of quality possible, and with supremely beautiful artistry.
I can answer that, I’m a Realtor. The Illinois real estate MLS, a half bathroom is .1. So this house has 3 half bathrooms or .3. Or 6 full baths and three half baths. 6.3 bathrooms.
Way too much "stuff" in the house. They need to remove at least 75% of the statues, clocks, vases, paintings, etc. We don't live in old-world Europe; the furnishings are way over the top. And that formal garden is very intimidating, not at all welcoming. Too many statues.
I'll agree to the statues and vases, but not the paintings and clocks. You have walls that look like a museum, you might as well go with the flow and have the art work that goes with them. (Loving the Pre-Raphaelites, BTW.) And in a house that big, one clock isn't going to do it. But oh, gads, do they need to lose the monkey lamps in the library. Way too 'British Colonial Expansion' for the north side of Chicago.
