the place next to it (closer to Lee) is pretty nice also

shite man, i never really got to look around there, as i was always driving and Highland is curvy as shite... or it was at night...

there is one house that's off of Highland on Amelia Way, i believe, that's tight as hell too.... i'm a big fan of painted brick, and this one is nice...

that one isn't too far from Old Hammond and Airline, right? I used to work at that Walgreens, and had to pass down OH from time to time, and i think i know the house...

hell, the McKay's looks like a St. Charles house....

Highland and Siegen.... yeah, that's a Front Door Design house... it has a big winding staircase.... beautiful house.....

i can remember the first couple of days driving home thinking "what the frick do these people do for a living that they can afford this type of shite?", because i'm not hurting, by any means, but i ain't got it like they got it....

Yea thats the intersection. Just looked on google earth. Great house

The one house on the corner has a major tree house in the back that overlooks that large pond/lake. All the houses being up on the hill really looks good.

We laugh at how much a pain in the arse it must be for the lawn company to mow the lawns right there

same here...

seems like you like pretty much the same stuff i do... well, there's one on the market around that area that would be an AMAZING entertaining house... i don't have the MLS, but if you search around on trulia, you'll find it... it's like 1.4 mill or so.... and for LL, the closet is 2 stories tall and looks like a boutique store inside... it has stairs and railway around the entire thing....

for us dudes, there are like 3 huge porches that give off a European/Mediterranean vibe...

I'll settle for this one on Ingleside...will likely fetch high 6 figures...only because the lot isn't massive:

For a "10 most expensive homes", I'm not sure I've seen a bigger assembly of plain and trite homes in my life.

Sounds as if you're basing your impression on curb appeal alone.

and i thought that house was my little secret. not that i know what every house behind the CCL gates looks like, but from a non-gaudy standpoint, that's probably my favorite house in all of BR.


they have quite a few in the back of willow grove that i'd like to transplant to a bigger lot/less dense neighborhood

Year built: Estimated 16 to 20 years ago

You can't figure out if your $2MM house was built in '99 or '95? That's pretty limp title work.

Also: This Busbice fella seems AWESOME

Is that place still on the market? If so that's been... 3 years now? 4?

The french villa-style just up the street has always been my "If I Win the Powerball" house.

He doesn't really own anything anymore. They were bought out by Plano. The titles for both of them on their show is not made reality.
