The house itself is just a typical mediterranean style stucco house that people have probably seen a million of. The coolest thing about our house is our backyard, privacy, and the view of downtown Austin. July 4ths are nice because you get a clear view of the fireworks directly from our porch.
That house in the background looks huge!

Oh yeah Ross Bridge is really nice. We were looking there too. And yep I know the Hendrick dealership. Good thing you were able to stay, moving sucks!

We actually had 20+ inches of snow here in 1993. It was insane. The whole state was shutdown for at least a week. I was 11 at the time and it was even miserable for me, can't go sledding in that much snow. Haven't seen anything like it since though.

That is a house that Michael Dell purchased for his brother (Steven Dell) like 15 years ago. It is pretty big. I don't know the square footage.

Not a picture of my house, but rather of the view from it. Such a sucker for this view of the Manhattan skyline from my living room - can't get it anywhere else in the world.

I see the attached version. Sick view! The only downside is that you have to live in New Jersey to get it...

NJ is awesome. CT might be the worst state north of the Mason Dixon. It's expensive for no good reason.

Calm down, it was a joke.

Also, no place is expensive "for no good reason". It's simple supply and demand.
