If I could, i'd live in highly equipped bunker

Nice, is it really worth $7 million though?

This is really dangerous stuff. Zuck already has a stalker who showed up on his doorstep. Invading his privacy like this actually inspires the crazy folks to invade a little more.

The state of tech journalism is just sad.

Wasting journalism resources that could go to covering innovation and struggling founders given to gawking at manicured lawns.

kill yourself.

> This is really dangerous stuff.

It looks like one photo off Google StreetView and the rest off the house's MLS listing. It's all public info.

Seems surprisingly modest.

5 bathrooms though? America makes me laugh. Apparently a house isn't worth much over there unless you can take a dump in a different room everyday of the week.

I don't know, my little rented three bedroom house in a small midland Ireland town has three bathrooms.

You mean an actual bathroom or a room with a toilet and sink in? If it were the latter I would understand but three rooms with an actual bath? In a three bedroom house? That is absurd.

One bathroom with a toilet, sink and bath/shower combo, one en-suite bathroom with toilet, sink and shower and one toilet + sink. I guess the technical term (as used by property people) is 2 1/2 bathrooms.

When I was young some friends of mine lived in a house where every bedroom (in a 6 bedroom house) had an en-suite bathroom, plus one additional bathroom. While I certainly don't expect every bedroom to have its own bathroom (or even close to it, really), I don't think its strange for a large house to have multiple bathrooms.

Sure, if you have a stately home I could imagine the reason for it. No one wants to walk for 10 minutes to go to the loo in the middle of the night. But a normal 3 - 5 bedroom house does seem a bit ridiculous space wise. Especially as (at least in the south east of England) land is the most expensive part of a building. I could think of much, much, much better uses of the space for my house rather than wasting tens of thousands of pounds worth of space (in land and building fees) on bathrooms.

Oh, I agree with you. I think the space could be better utilized in other ways, but I also don't find it terribly strange when it is used for bathrooms.

(For the ten minute walk thing, you just need a tiny toilet+sink room, you dont really need that many showers...)

Well there goes the myth that he isn't into material things...

Come on now, most people have a huge chunk of their net worth tied up into their homes. He's worth billions (supposedly), so his $7 million house is nothing compared to what he could live in. Also, he's getting old so he needs to stop sleeping on a matress on the floor of a rented apartment. Give the guy a break :D

On the other hand, I reallllly don't see how that house is worth $7mm. It's nice, but not that nice...
