a meth lab.

I know you are kidding (and LOL, BTW), but you would be shocked at just how many homes contain just that. We live in a really nice neighborhood, all houses in the >$1.5 mil price range, and there were 2 houses with hoarders within a block, one where the junk caught fire and killed the occupants, and a meth house across the street. The police rolled in one night, arrested everyone, and rolled a dumpster in. The whole place was cleaned out in about 48 hours. The contractor that flipped the place couldn't believe how much surveillance equipment they left behind.

Fake art and disgusting dishrags.

That's amazing they cleaned it up so quickly. A friend had a rental house and got a letter from the Police saying they had raided the house and arrested the tenants. It took a couple of months just to get the permits to start the cleanup of the chemicals. Then he had to find licensed removal contractors.
He said until the whole police raid, they had been model tenants. Rent paid a couple of days early, never had any complaints, and he heard from the neighbors what quiet neighbors they were.

If our house had a ballroom ... that wouldn't be practical, since we wouldn't be having any balls.

But then I could at least walk around singing 'why have a ballroom with no balls?'

But, maybe I could repurpose the ballroom for something more practical, like a workout space. So then it would be practical after all.

I once had a dream that my mom surprised me by building a full Space Mountain in my backyard! No, that wouldn't be practical at all - but I'd still take it!

A fireplace. We know nothing about using a fireplace and would probably burn the house down.

 

[DisneyHardin]

A wine cellar. Other than the occasional glass of wine at a restaurant, we don't drink enough wine to ever warrant it.
