Heading back from some work in Wyoming, my client wanted to take me out for a bite at a Restaurant in Fort Collins. They were going to continue on down to Denver for a night at the symphony. After we ate at this neat Brazilian Grill. I took the back roads home along the edge of foothills, rather than zipping down the less attractive stretch of I-25.
I happened along this place....I have to say it is probably the biggest home I have ever seen.
Which is all part of the public domain and available for anyone to view.
The county has this property's data showing a 11, 409 foot "addition" completed a few years back.
The totals now come in at
main floor 9870 ...»
upper floor 11207
finished garden level 2776
unfinished basement 7104
total 30957
Attached Garage at 3878
For a comparison The home I grew up in, back in Michigan, could have been purchased for what this home owner pays in property taxes in two years.
I must admit a home like this appeals to some, and I' sure the owner has indirectly supplied income for many folks in the building trades, It is their choice to live like they do.
And perhaps more importantly, this info is available to anyone as a part of public domain and FOIA. If you "own" anything, anyone can access the files!!
I think the only thing missing from this picture is a BRIGHT ORANGE FENCE POST - just NOT attached to the house!!
