How should we define a minimum viable mansion? Square footage? Rooms? Acreage? Or more symbolic things like a dramatic-entrance staircase or a mysterious attic?

Size - multiple stories or extremely high ceilings, media room with large screen
Defense - insane alarm systems, panic room, escape tunnel, moat, gate, intercom, cameras, etc
Frivolity - excessive bathrooms, expensive banisters and door handles, rooms with imaginary "purpose"

Number of rooms without any use seems important too / feel any good mansion needs to have rooms filled with useless trinkets

Dedicated Levels. Master, Kid's, Staff. If you don't have staff you're in the McMansion way.

Definition I’ve read is > 4 bedrooms. It’s related to having space that won’t be used by default.
Replying to
Driveway, staircase, high ceilings and a chandelier. Minimum 8 rooms. That feels like a minimum viable mansion.
