A new post on McMansion Hell regarding Texas McMansions:

The kitchen is incredibly fugly. Something you can't un-see.
I've seen worse. Several years ago, DW and I happened upon a rare Saturday open house of
this McMansion. Sadly, that page doesn't show any pictures of the monstrosity of a kitchen. The flooring was
cobblestone, and it extended into the back game room. Hard, cold, lumpy, trip-you-when-you're-up-for-a-midnight-snack cobblestones. The T-shaped island was big enough that there were parts of it that you literally could not reach.
The whole house is a museum of bad finishes. There was a powder room--a
small powder room--that had three different patterns of wallpaper, including
leopard print on the ceiling. The media room had Route 66 themed wallpaper...with matching upholstery. Literally--the exact same pattern on both the walls and the furniture. IIRC, the bathtub in the master suite had something like a swan neck for a spigot. The first floor had three different types of hardwood floors, plus marble (cracked in a few spots) in the entry room and great room, never mind the aforementioned cobblestone in the kitchen.
Oh, and the whole house had these awful, single-paned windows (in Houston!), and there were at least 5 A/C compressors outside. I can only imagine what the electricity bill in the summer is like for that house.
She also need higher resolution photos! I can't even tell what the "oops" is about in the first photo.
I think the posts are based on the real estate listings, so the pictures are whatever she can get ahold of.
