    Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. THAT'S relativity. Albert Einstein

      Well... it used to not. It might now-a-days
      Being a major OU fan and a staunch conservative.... I am perpetually vexed w/ the conundrum of who to hate more. Obama or the Univ. of Saxet.

              That could be a 458 or a 408 docked outside. But yes, I figured there would be a normal runabout somewhere in there.

                    I do believe that is a larger 4 winns express cruiser docked outside. Notice the rib dingy in the corner of the boat house, probably goes on the back of the boat outside. I guess the property used to be a marina that he decided to buy when the owner put it up for sale. A couple of the other houses on the lake are equally or more impressive. There is one that is 28k square feet and has a 10k square foot boat house.

                    Here's the thread I am referring to, go to the second page.

                        I'd say that is him, can't be too many john winns in charlevoix, the population is only 3k.

                          I am amazed that the house is not double that price. We had a house around the corner that was listed last year for 7 million. The current sales price is 3 million.

                            For all we know it could be just a really big throw-together stick home. Down here in FL we see 2 mil homes built all the time (on the water), what kind of roof do you see? The cheapest 3 tab money can buy.

                            Its cheap to build big, and expensive to build quality.

                              That is only tax assessment. Might not be market value. In CAlifornia my home is assessed at $175,000 and it is a $450,000 home
                              Let it be!!!

                                That is true, assessed does not always reflect market value, I guess that lake has direct access to lake michigan, I bet it might be worth a million more. There was another article about the designer and the homes/boathouses he has designed, sounds like the guy builds some pretty cool stuff.
