Talk about getting some bang for your buck. This 1873 classical Greek revival home is priced at $899,900 and measures 11,544 square feet, roughly three times the Painted Lady’s space.

This historic home located in York, Pennsylvania has hosted presidents, cabinet members and even military generals within its spacious walls. It has 10 bedrooms, six bathrooms and nine fireplaces.

The 1.85 acre estate comes with a carriage house that’s been converted into a four-car garage. The house also includes an elevator, a barn and 10 chandeliers.

But does bigger always mean the better value?

“Better value without a question, metrics say is York,” she said. “But you really have to go with what’s going to appreciate most in the next five years and if you ask me, there’s no question it’s Painted Lady. Painted Lady is in a top suburb of Chicago, it’s an exciting place to live, right near Chicago. And that’s going to get the buyers.”
