In Boston, most of the older houses are big, spacious and have high-ceilings. I live in a 100+ year old victorian house that is twice as big as most new apartments in terms of construction area. But usable living area is only 50% larger because there are lots of useless space in the poorly designed floorplan.

my friend just built an ~7500 sq ft house for him and his three kids. odd floor plan though, the house isn't really wide but it's really really long. he also had a private one acre lake dug so he can paddle his boat around. the place looks nice, he's pretty happy with it. bad part about it is the 22k in taxes he has to pay on the place (1.5mil house, 7 acres of land, lake included)
