Inside A $10.9M Compound With A Private Aerial Tram | On The Market | Architectural Digest

I love how a 2 bed apartment in NYC could cost this, but you can be totally immersed in nature with these views and serenity for $10.8m

[@Ededdneddy9]

NYC is overpriced and overrated would much rather live here

[@slaiyfershin]

You'd probably also have to be a loner without a job (not that you need one with 10 million) cause travelling anywhere would be a pain in the arse.

[@lyler.1082]

You could also immerse yourself in nature with a $20 tent.

I've watched so many episodes of AD, and somehow I've watched this like 5 times already. I love Seattle, WA and this house just captured my heart. I love how private the location is. The scenery, the designs, the colours, the space, big windows with magnificent views-each windows had different views, and it's like a painting on the walls. I wish I am filthy rich and live here with my loved one.

[@_LN_]

This is my absolute favorite property so far, it's so insanely normal and awesome at the same time. Feels like such a relaxing place, the tram is a little much and I was weirdly thinking that you should have somebody present all the time to help you in case you get stuck in it :))

[@aaaaaaaaaaaavm]

There's Enes Yilmazer, so vibrant and fun, explaining every tiny detail of property and then this dude, high on salty air.

[@valarya]

When your total property has 4 bedrooms but each one is in it's own house, you should rethink your design.

[@pgplaysvidya]

you're trolling but a lot of super mega mansions are basically large public areas with a number of master bedroom sized bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms that are tucked away around long corridors. pretty boring but what else can you do, right?

I think what some people are missing on the price is that this is the northwesternmost house in Magnolia, meaning you have total privacy on the north side as it backs up to Magnolia Bluff and Discovery Park. Pretty idyllic location within Seattle.

the housing market in all of Washington is crazy, especially Seattle. You'd be surprised what people will pay for even an acre on ocean front property like this.

Property taxes are $78,000 a year for that property. A professional gardener only costs $40k-$50k a year to employ full time with benefits.

Lovely spot and great landscaping, but it's really a niche property and I can't imagine who would want four 1-bedroom homes (instead of, perhaps one 4-bedroom house). Also, while the multi-building style of pavilion layout might work well in Bali, I can't imagine it is quite as appealing in the cold and rainy Pacific Northwest.
