Hark what yonder [functionless we think] things are these flanking the fireplace in this “Stunning Mansion” ? Are these some of the “elegant columns” from the “Gourmet kit”, gone slightly astray? This photo shows the “Beautiful 2-story FR w/gas frpl, Palladian windows & French doors”. We remain distracted by these aforementioned things that move skyward. Land of Excess ponders — contractor whim? Private joke on the buyer? Half-built gallows? Asking price of $2,399,000 for this 3 garage 4 full and 2 half and 5 in McLean, VA.
