This is the children's playhouse on the grounds of the Vanderbuilt mansion in Newport, RI. It even has a working fireplace...note that the chimney is out of scale.





This is the main house

You are close, Mark. It is called Fallingwater & it was a Wright designed house, built for the Kaufman family of Pittsburgh. However, it is rural & about 65 miles sw of Pittsburgh. A stunning house, in a stunning location.

see Fallingwater

By the way...that picture above? That was taken last January. In January, I typically get up in the morning, throw on a bathing suit, and wash my 928 in the driveway barefoot-

Here's a pretty damn nice house in Downey Ca that Joanna and I looked at. It's 2,700 sq ft on a 19k lot.

Built in 1933 but updated in the '90's

The bathrooms are period pieces and I would have updated them.
