HOME MAX REALTY INTERNATIONAL LUXURY HOME SEARCH WIKI INFO:
Mansions built during the 20th and 21st centuries usually have specially designed rooms meant to accommodate leisure activities of a particular kind. Many will have a conservatory or greenhouse, while others will have an infinity pool or a home theater. Some have all of these features. The relative importance of these specially designed rooms changes with the times.
At the beginning of the 20th century, no true mansion would have been built without a room to house a private library or study, while at the beginning of the 21st century the presence of a room designed for a home theater or cinema is normal.
Most recently, mansions have been built with integrated home automation. Some other technology-inclined mansions may even have a bowling alley or a server room.
A modern mansion today may not necessarily be limited to a single house standing alone, but like Roman Emperor Nero‘s Domus Aurea, mansions may be compounds or a grouping of larger houses. The Kennedy Compound is an example of one family building surrounded by large houses on a single plot.
In general, whether a house can be called a mansion is contextual – in Manhattan or many other cities a 6,000-square-foot (560 m2) house would certainly be described as such, but a similar sized house in the Atlanta suburbs probably would not be.
Calling something a mansion indicates a level of grandeur/consumption considerably greater than the norm in that location, with the additional connotation of quality and correlates highly with the housing patterns of the upper class.
