Definition of McMansion

Mar. 7, 2009
Categorized in: Fauquier County

Interestingly, a friend recently e-mailed me to ask for my definition of a McMansion. Now, in the blog Bacon's Rebellion, there's a very, very local definition if you live in Fauquier County. (You have to read at least the first comment.)

By the definition here, pretty much every property I've ever sold is a McMansion so I believe I'd argue with that definition!

Here's my very slopping definition: Too big a home on too little space too far from any jobs that would support a mortgage on the property.

What's your definition?
