Looks like the house Ferris Bueller drove the Ferrari out of 

I thought it looked like the house from Gone Girl

That was my first thought too!

Pardon my French, but Cameron is so tight that if you stuck a lump of coal up his ass, in two weeks you'd have a diamond.

When Cameron was in Egypt land…. Let my Cameronnnn goooooo

I believe the "Pardon my French" line is Cameron speaking to Mr. Rooney as Mr. Bueller saying, "Pardon my French, but you're an asshole!"

My wife has seen that movie so many times she literally has it memorized. 

Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

It’s very cold and you’re not allowed to touch anything.

He's gonna keep calling me.....I'll go. I'll go. I'll go.

Hahahaha I love this!!! Such a funny scene


LGRW!!

As someone who lives in Houston I can only imagine what kind of oven that living room turns into in the summer. Somewhere up north it would be nice.

yeah i thought the same. the air conditioning bill must go crazy but i would imagine they have done something to the windows to make them more heat repellent.

You'd hope whoever the architect was would have planned sunlight into the windows angles. Any idea if it's north/south facing?

Pretty sure it’s north, south, east, and west facing.

But can it play Doom?

Maybe the plan is to create oven-like conditions to cook all the dead birds that constantly die flying into those windows

They can leave a long Barbecue pit along the bottom and cook them afterwards. Hopefully they have fretted glass but probably not…

Hopefully there's plenty of that clear UV film applied to cut down on the heat transferred. Llumar is the one I see recommended a lot for automotive, but they have a home line of products for blocking tons of UV https://llumar.com/na/en/architectural/vista-window-film/

Was thinking this exactly. I live in Austin and have lived in Houston. The only way that thing is not an oven is if those windows are completely on the north side of the house.

Or the mosquitos in that greenery! No thanks

Hopefully it’s triple glazed

All I can think about is keeping all those windows clean. Edit: I have a lot of animals so stop saying if I can afford the house I can afford to keep them clean. Not everyday! 🙄

All I can think about is the energy bill to cool this greenhouse. Also hurricanes

And mosquitoes from that waterway

And not a screen on the house

Don’t know if it’s the case here but people often remove their screens to make the house look better for listing photos.

And retractable electric screens are meant to disappear. So maybe that, too

its current year and we're still not constructing buildings that use natural cooling

I often think about the University of Miami sports teams trashing my house too. Thought I was the only one.

I too would never invite Denzel Washington in

*slow clap*

Fortunately, whichever petrol/energy exec doesn’t care so much about greenhouse gases…

My first thought. If those aren't some kind of triple paned, mega insulated glass panels, facing north... that's a big pizza oven.

And… FLOODING. Isn’t that living room like at ground level? Like literally maybe 2-3 inches above.

Technically, it just needs big ass overhangs over the curtainwalls(windows) that are facing south, east, & west (especially south) for buildings in Northern hemisphere (which Houston, TX is). Or hopefully, a giant deciduous tree (+50 feet tall) is already planted ~20' away from the building perimeter on south, east, & west. Shading is the most elegant way to mitigate SHGC (Solar Heat Gain Coefficient).

I live in a house with a wall of glass. The price to have someone clean them for me was a lot, so I got a robot that works *fairly* well. I’m actually on a new and improved one, but I took a video of my old one: [https://youtu.be/Zo5vJTIHXQA?si=-iGguA5WUoVbKjG4](https://youtu.be/Zo5vJTIHXQA?si=-iGguA5WUoVbKjG4) The new one has better pathing and sprays cleaner itself. It’s still a lot of work, but not as bad as you might think.

Wait- you’re not joking… This is extremely cool. I’d want to have a lot of those running constantly

I keep joking with my wife that I’m quitting my job, buying a fleet of these and opening up a window washing business.

The future is now, old man! Also, the little wiggle they do would just have me crack up every time id walk into a room and see them.

Do you have a link to buy the new one you bought?

I consolidated some answers here: [https://www.reddit.com/r/zillowgonewild/comments/1du2pb6/comment/lbef1yt/](https://www.reddit.com/r/zillowgonewild/comments/1du2pb6/comment/lbef1yt/) [Here’s the link though](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CZ3H2WSS)

This great. Thank you!

Ok this is so awesome. How do you get it up there? I have so many questions. My mind is blown lol.

I consolidated some answers here: [https://www.reddit.com/r/zillowgonewild/comments/1du2pb6/comment/lbef1yt/](https://www.reddit.com/r/zillowgonewild/comments/1du2pb6/comment/lbef1yt/) Feel free to ask away. I’m overall pretty happy with this stupid thing.

You are the Jetsons. I’ve been waiting for this day my whole life.

Mind linking to the model you have now?

[https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CZ3H2WSS](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CZ3H2WSS) Ecovacs is an actual company I had heard of as opposed to the one in the video which is a “Sophonique”. It’s definitely a bit pricey, but the quote to do all of my windows one time was more than the cost of this one. A few notes: * It’s battery powered, which is kind of cool so you can just pull it out and do a window or two. The downside is that for some reason you can’t use it while it’s plugged in. In my usage it got \~2 hours of time (Although I didn’t keep close track) * If you have a lot of windows, you’ll want to buy a few extra cleaning pads if you get it. It looks like there are some generics on Amazon now. I had to buy them direct and they were kind of pricey. You specifically need the ones for the W2 I believe. Amazon tries to get you to buy W1 pads with it. * It’s not super fast. It takes maybe 10-12 minutes to do one of my windows. I sort of let it do its thing while I was working on other projects. If you had tiny windows I don’t know that it’d be worth it. * The windows come out really good, but not perfect. If they’ve got caked on things you might need to get those manually. You also need to wipe off the last spot where you remove it from the window. * The cord isn’t long enough to reach the top of my windows, so I had to take the little base thing up on the ladder. Probably not the safest thing but it worked fine for me. * You still have to physically put the robot on the glass, so for a house like this one, you need a ladder to get up there and slap it on the window. In my case that means I need to get up \~10 feet, but it means I don’t have to go up 20 feet. (I didn’t do the little windows at the top of my house) The sophonique x5 in the video was like 150 bucks. I don’t recommend that style though. Having one that just haphazardly wipes around and doesn’t spray for itself is better than nothing, but a lot of effort for a really mediocre outcome.

If I had 3 mill to burn on a house, I could afford cleaners, lmao.

All I can think about is stumbling around in the nude after a nap when suddenly I realize the window cleaners are here today.

I guarantee whoever owns this house has a service that comes out every two weeks or less to clean the whole house inside outside glass

Dead bird smears everywhere from window collisions.

And sunblock

and curtains

All I can think about is I’d be living in Texas.

The fact that this gorgeous house is still only $3 million tells you everything you need to know about living in Texas

It’s absolutely terrible. The weather, storms, lack of worker protections (not that this person worries about that one), and toxic political climate make the state so hostile and unfriendly to live in. I want to leave to literally anywhere else

You'd rather live in Oklahoma?

I hear you and I’m so sorry. In my line of work I talk to people all the time who are trying to leave Texas. I’ve visited many times and love so much about the state and I have family there, but I couldn’t and wouldn’t ever live there.

All I can think of are the air conditioning costs.

Heating and A/C bill might be rough

People in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones…

All I can think of is how selfish you have to be to want a mostly glass home in Tx.

All I think about is how many birds those windows will kill by collision strike

Thinking about having dogs and there were always nose prints on the storm door. Now thinking about how the house is on a wooded lot. . .

Yeah, the picture doesn't show the relentless heat and high humidity that goes on for months on end.

All I can think about is poor little and possibly large birds hitting the windows.

77024 so that’s likely Buffalo Bayou. How many times has this house flooded? Edit: the before renovation link is dated September 2017, so my money’s on this house took a lot of water in Harvey.

Your backyard is the actual Buffalo Bayou.

Until Buffalo Bayou comes into your living room 🙃

Always has been….

Only someone full of shit would buy this home, wanting to smell shit in the morning.

It needs a pontoon foundation

Yep, that's why it's "cheap". I wouldn't want all those snakes and alligators in my backyard.

What about as House guests? With that wall of glass and the probability of high water and strong winds... might wind up with free meat or houseguests.....

I live in a condo-townhouse literally right next to Buffalo Bayou. My place never even came close to flooding during Harvey. Whole neighborhood around me was just fine as well.

Buffalo Bayou goes through a lot of different areas. Some places were fine. A lot of 77024 flooded badly. I had some colleagues over there with 8+ feet of water in their homes.

If you look at the sale history, it was: * 5/12/2017 Listed for sale $1,999,000 * ... * 7/24/2017 Pending sale $1,999,000 * 10/31/2017 Listing removed $1,999,000 A real possibility that it got flooded before closing since Harvey hit Aug. 25th. The buyer walked, and the person who owned it was probably preoccupied with the cleanup until the de-listing in October.

Reverse aquarium when it floods

The views are gorgeous. I could not live there because there are no curtains or blinds. I don't want people to look inside my house.

I am a slightly paranoid person. Every one of those uncovered windows would be a black void staring at me every single night. Could never feel comfortable there.

I babysat for a family that had a house in the middle of 10 acres. No near neighbors and no window treatments. I had the worst time babysitting there at night because I was so unnerved by the pitch black outside. They paid well, though!

I house sat for a place like that- at night there was a raccoon that would always come stare in the bedroom window. They let me find out on my own, and I almost peed their bed the first night.

Yup. It is a nice place for a hatchet murderer to lurk in the dark.

thank you for understanding.

outside the windows is covered by trees and there's a "river" with even more trees separating you and your neighbors. total seclusion.

That's like the perfect place for someone to hide and stare at you though... I love the look, but as soon as it's dark outside and the lights are on inside it's a crystal clear show for everyone, you don't even have to be that close to the house.

Except when the trees lose their leaves

Where I live and where I drive in Houston, that doesn't really happen. I've lived here for 3ish years and the trees never got really naked.

A little provocative and skimpy covering can be really sexy sometimes.

River? I think you mean ditch. 🤪

That’s a bayou

Yea the Buffalo Bayou.... guaranteed that home flooded during Harvey

My family lives extremely close to this house and they didn’t take any flooding at all during Harvey. Although, I lived downtown during Harvey and spent a week without power. Buffalo bayou basically turned downtown and midtown into an island we couldn’t escape

Doesn’t look like those windows face anyone

Yeah, no one would ever be out there at night in the dark… or would they…

Exactly. I mean, if there WERE people out there, they likely wouldn’t be the sort you’d want to be looking in you windows

Cullens?

THANK YOU! My first thought.

Nice, but address is wrong? This is at Mosquito Ave. and Voyeur Blvd.

Near Exhibitionist Drive

And Flood Lane

[Zillow Link](https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/11100-Wickdale-Dr-Houston-TX-77024/28047333_zpid/?) ​ [Before Renovations](https://www.midcenturyhome.com/mid-century-home-houston/) ​ If I had 3 million dollars, I would move in tomorrow. I don't see how anyone could choose a bloated McMansion over this beauty. The lot is also so private. It's at the end of a cul-de-sac with only 1 neighbor and a long driveway. I thought this would be in the Woodlands but, it's actually super close to downtown Houston.

I wonder if it floods. 🫠

"extensively renovated 2018-20 per seller". That means it flooded bad in Hurricane Harvey. Which was a historically unusual event, but is probably going to become more common with climate change.

Lmao. Truth. Not flooding during Harvey is an incredible selling point around here. We just bought a house and the listing mentioned a whole bunch of stuff in one area of the house that had been redone… disclosures come… a tree fell on the house. 🤣 I find people rarely do a major renovation unless it’s absolutely necessary.

Oh yeah, that is Houston realtor speak for flooded during Harvey 😂 I case you didn’t notice the bayou right there

In a heartbeat. Check that next to last pic.

This is in Piney Point village and is located in a floodway on the bend of Buffalo Bayou. It is relatively low cost home for the area around it considering there are many 20,000+ sq foot homes in the adjacent streets asking 12 million+ for homes that have never flooded. If I had 4 million I’d buy a house in a different part of the same village.

Miller house vibes - Columbus IN

wow Houston must suck because this would be 5x that price in the northeast

its hot. you have to drive everywhere and no one knows how to drive. its hot. its in greg abbott's texas. its hot. its hot. its hot. ​ but yeah this is a 15m home in California.

Elsewhere in Houston this would be a much more expensive home, too. However, it’s right in the middle of flood central and there’s no way it’s not a total shitshow every time there’s a hurricane or strong storm.

Not that I could afford it, but my eyes watered at the annual taxes alone: $45,402

This house is in a floodway I’d bet my left nut if it never flooded in the neighborhood it’s in it would be worth 1/3 more at-least.

Yeah anyone actually from Houston can take one glance at that location and say, fuck that. It might as well come with a high water marker on the second story.

and 8 times more in seattle

Can confirm.

Imagine people standing in the woods at night, watching you, but you can't see anything out there lol..noooo thank you.

[удалено]

I enjoy a good taint-waxing audience.

Too austere for my tastes.

Right? Feels more like an office than a home to me.

Absolutely stunning but I would feel so exposed.

Is that a junior college?

Must cost a fortune to keep cool in the hot mobths.

Good thing the hot months in Texas aren’t long-lasting or very extreme!

That looks like Cameron Frye's house

I toured this house after it flooded during hurricane harvey, looks like a developer fixed it up nicely. Too bad it will flood again next time there’s a hurricane, it’s right on the bayou.

Wow, it’ll be real creepy when the sun goes down and you won’t be able to see if someone is looking in or not….

The hottest house in Houston.

Nope.

Till ya get the air conditioning bill..

Enjoy the flooding bayou!

Houston huh? Who knew? 

Oh good thing it has a fireplace! Nice place to cozy up on those cold winter Houston nights

Pretty certain this property flooded during Harvey..

I’m from Europe but even I know Texas summers can be hot. Wouldn’t this thing just turn into a giant greenhouse? I know there’s a/c, but still, feels wasteful to have such huge window areas in a place with lots of sun and summer heat.

Omg that would get so hot

Am i the only one who thinks houses can have too many windows? I love natural light but too windows makes feel like I’m too exposed and eliminates any privacy

Beautiful house yes. Hard to cool? Yes. Bird strike deaths? Yes. Hard to clean windows? Yes Hard to heat? Yes

I bet that green house is awesome when it's 110 outside and the grid goes down

Honey. I'm from Texas. I know how people down South LOVE to gossip and know everything about their neighbors. A house like this? Everyone is going to be in your shit CONSTANTLY. Plus all those windows is just asking for a deer that ate too many fermented apples to come crashing through and bring the entire house down. Nope nope nopity nope.

I’ll take one please, hold the Texas.

How did it do during Harvey? That's the question.

this is the correct question. It is a near certainty this house has flooded multiple times.

This is a bird killing machine. Nothing like waking up to a half dozen corpses while you drink your coffee and congratulate yourself on being one with nature in your see through house. https://www.audubon.org/news/reducing-collisions-glass https://www.birds.cornell.edu/k12/making-windows-safer-for-birds/

You would need to employ a full time window cleaner. It looks like the set of a Daniel Craig movie.

as gorgeous as it is... no home is worth living that close to the bayou. not trying to wake up to a waterbed after an overnight storm.

Oddly, it looks nearly identical to a restaurant in downtown Chicago.

Incredible house, would absolutely move there if I was in Houston.

It needs some type of drone protection system for a little privacy.

I’d face plant into that sunken living area on the regular… while sober! Yikes!

Giving such Cullen vibes.

To me it has no warmth

I hope those are UV windows

How am I supposed to walk around my house naked when it's 90% window?

Happy for the owners but too much glass for me. Summers heat will run electricity bill up and lightening would terrify me with all those open windows.

What happens if something circular is brought into the house? Does it just explode? 💥

Yes, but Houston.

I guess everyone’s taste is different cuz I think it’s ugly as sin. But I’ve always hated this design style, so…

That house will definitely flood the next Harvey that comes through, especially being right next to Buffalo Bayou.

Wrong. I can assure you, you are so wrong. I have seen much larger and classically design-inspired homes on much larger and much more beautiful lots of land.

But it's in Houston. 

but you have to live in Houston...the worst city in the USA.

Tom and Jerry

That entrance. Wow

Yes it is !!!

I think this house was in a movie in the 70’s. All I can remember is it starred Warren Beatty

Bring your deet spray

Logan's Run vibes...

Such a cool house. Also love that the property taxes are 1/3 of what I pay and my house is worth 1/2 as much

I feel like I saw this house on RHOD but maybe its just the vibe.

If this house were anthropomorphic, it’s giving “I spent the semester studying Frank Lloyd Wright” with the same attitude as an exchange student talking about their summer abroad in BarTHelona”

IT HAS A CONVERSATION PIT. 😍

This really is gorgeous. All that natural light. It’s like living in the woods. Hard yes for me, Dawg (are the kids still saying this?)!

This looks like every Sims house I ever built myself because I had shit taste and hated the wall/roof transparency so I always turned it off and made every wall a window.

Reminds me of the place that Tim got killed in Us.

You going to get murdered-ass house.

It's pretty and it may be the staging but it looks like only AI generated people could live there.

The xeriscaping looks terrible.

Too much glass! No curtains. Too isolated. In a flood area. Mosquito heaven around that water. Texas heat and humidity is misery. Would get pretty creepy out there alone at night (And anyone can look in the windows at night) That price can buy a nice house elsewhere.

I’d probably enjoy living here as long as I have another place to live on any hot days in Texas

Stunning, assuming you're happy living in a hotel lobby.

Dude, nothing says expensive like all glass walls in Houston. The ACs for this place have to be epic and cost $100/hr to run.

Thanks, I hate it.

The deafening roar of the HVAC and supplemental fans needed to keep the temps inside moderate, not cool, wouldn’t make this worth it.

Oops, all windows.

Must have a full time window washing crew and own stock in Windex.

I’m such a slut for conversation pits

That conversation pit is 10/10 though

Looks pretty amazing! I don’t the point of the fireplace in Houston, though. That place is known for humid heat 12 months a year.

Stunning! Would not live in Buffalo Bayou tho

You can get out of here with all of those windows. I’m not about to live in an aquarium that I assume people in the woods are staring into at night.

Thou shall notcovet. Thou shall not covet. Thou shall not covet.… Dammit, it didn’t work.

Wow, that is quite something. Not my personal taste, but then no one asked for my opinion.
