Good call. Massive cluster. I am in TN. No shortage here of huge pretentious residential structures that want to suggest Ante-Bellum glory but actually are Potemkin! Most way out in the county on 30-100 acres and look completely out of context. With a horse barn of course. Lol.

Potemkin got a bad rap, the villages were indeed real, but his court rivals concocted this trope to damage his reputation & thus pressure Catherine the Great to set him aside- which of course she did not, as she understood the game.
I have seen this type of stuff built. DIY, wife or husband believes more is better.
Terrible people like me saying I bet you can get a deal on two fountains and get him to throw in that other one.
I have the sweetest neighbors from Assastan (not sure which one) that believes Roman columns of different types solves all problems. The only thing that makes them more awesome is the lighting from Phillips Hue
People from different backgrounds interpreting another style, like the 1950тАЩs making things тАЬorientalтАЭ

A few years ago driving around the NC countrysideтАжwhy donтАЩt people maintain their barns?? Maybe paint them every now and then??
Well near as I can tell the antique value of old barn siding wood is higher than paint.
