Mitt Romney in Utah, Estate of the Day
Former Massachusetts governor and presidential candidate Mitt Romney may be feeling the financial pinch. The Boston Globe reports that Romney is selling two of his four homes, his Utah ski cabin and his Belmont, Massachusetts home. Romney also owns homes in New Hampshire and La Jolla, California. Romney's rep says that he and his wife Ann are downsizing because their children are grown and that the move has nothing to do with either the recession or the $42 million Romney spent on his campaign to be the Republican nominee for president.Romney's Park City, Utah home is a seven-bedroom, 9,500-square-foot log cabin tucked into the side of a mountain on 11 acres. The post-and-beam home will be sold fully furnished with furniture made specifically for the Western-themed home. All the lighting features and fireplace screens were custom made. The home is rich in wood and natural stone including river-washed rocks which surround a large spa tub for relaxing after winter sports. This home is listed at $5.25 million.

I was hoping for something nicer, more refined, of better taste, but they just went with oversized furniture, wooden beams and rocks--no grace to anything in the entire house. And such poor lighting.

Hmmm, this or the White House??? Ahh, screw politics, I'll take this.

Well Just Me I don't totally disagree with you. The log and rock is a little much. Some of the furnishings are appropriate for the space, but it's not warm and fuzzy enough. With that setting it could have been a little more inviting, not totally horrible though.
p.s. DJ I would have taken the White House, not the job, just the house!!

Let me guess, no wine cellar?
