ParticipantWell, Ed McMahon’s place is 54.000 square feet. Seems like Ted is living like a pauper compared to Ed.

Participant9,000 sf house and he’s trying to sell b/c he bought a BIGGER one? Is he housing a small town? Who needs/wants a house that big? Baffles me. That’s the kind of excess and decandence that astonishes me. Why? Why get a place that big?
Yeah, I was readying a sarcastic comment (something about “crying real tears” maybe), but then I thought I would just sound bitter 🙂
It is a huge drop. As for needing that much space, I’m sure people that are used to it probably find a need for it. I recently saw a “dream home” show about a really decadent house on the coast here. It has a complete 1950’s street scene underground, with a bowling alley, theater, etc. It was wild. I can’t even describe the pool, but lets just say it allows cliff diving. I believe they were asking $30m for it.

WASHINGTON (AP) – Newsman Ted Koppel is sparring with his neighbors over the size of their homes. The anchor of ABC’s “Nightline” and his wife contend in a lawsuit that their neighbors in the posh Washington suburb of Potomac, Md., have disregarded an agreement limiting the size of homes to 10,000 square feet.
A preliminary ruling from a Maryland appeals court cleared all but two homes, but the remaining cases are headed to trial in Montgomery County, Md., The Washington Post reported Thursday. Firing back, the developers of nearby properties filed a countersuit claiming the only house exceeding the limit will belong to the Koppels’. The couple’s attorney, though, told the paper the house would be 9,700 square feet when completed.
Shirley Ballard Miller said the Koppels’ attorneys came to her house with tape measures before it was among those cleared in the court ruling. “We were all dumbfounded,” she said. “No one understood what it was about. Why anyone would care so much about every little inch?” Attorney Thomas D. Murphy – representing Koppel, 62, and his wife, Grace Anne Dorney, 63 – was not immediately available for comment. He told the Post the couple is “concerned that McMansions would overwhelm the ground, and they were willing to pay a steep price to avoid that from happening.”
The Koppels bought a 16-acre plot overlooking the Potomac River for $2.7 million in 1993. The Livingston Family Limited Partnership bought an adjacent 28-acre plot and agreed to limit construction of homes there to 10,000 square feet.
