Members BKuzak Posted August 10, 2014 Members Share Posted August 10, 2014 What i hate most is homes like Dorian Lord's on One Life to Live. It was suposed to be this big mansion but all you saw was the foywer, the living room and then later the kitchen. I think OLTL's Llanfair was one of the most "showed" mansion in soaps. It had the library. the foywer. in the 70's and 80's it had the sitting room. It had a kitchen that was used a lot from the late 80's on. then it had the sunroom that came about in the early 1990's. The only thing it didn't show was the dinning room. And don't forget the "secret" rooms. Victor and then the one Tess created (with it's own bathroom!). I think on Days, the Dimera mansion has shown quite a few rooms over the year. I think most of them were "secret" rooms though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted August 10, 2014 Members Share Posted August 10, 2014 According to Y&R, Katherine's mansion was big enough to have wings and one would have no idea if someone was living in one of the secluded, far-away rooms. We did see several of them (living room, foyer, dining room, kitchen, bedrooms for Jill, Nina, the pool area, I'm pretty sure Katherine and Phillip as well?)

Members SFK Posted August 10, 2014 Members Share Posted August 10, 2014 I didn't watch Santa Barbara, but didn't both versions of the Capwell mansion show quite a few rooms (including C.C.'s office/den and a couple of outdoor spaces)? Llanfair was the first home that came to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members titan1978 Posted August 10, 2014 Members Share Posted August 10, 2014 The Q mansion had wings too. The main Q foyer, staircase, living room, sitting room, patio and garden and gatehouse were one side of the house/grounds. It was being renovated when Edward was believed dead, and the family common area was in a different wing. I know we have seen Edward and Lila's bedroom, Alan and Monica's room, and both AJ and Jason. Tracy as well. The Q mansion has been the home to so many characters! Off the top of my head... Edward/Lila Alan/Monica/Lucy AJ/Jason/Emily Tracy/Ned/Dillon/lord Ashton/Paul/Luke/Lulu Alice/Reginald Brenda/Lois/Brook-Lynn Katherine Skye Jimmy/Celia/grant? That dull blonde cousin in the early 1980's Alexandra Did Sean live there when Monica kicked the Q's out when they were sleeping together? Has any other soap mansion had that many folks living within its walls? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted August 10, 2014 Members Share Posted August 10, 2014 An addition... Llanfair also had the carriage house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members titan1978 Posted August 10, 2014 Members Share Posted August 10, 2014 Does Lucinda's estate count? It did have stables, which we saw quite a bit of when they hired that hot stable boy Holden. Also the Spaulding Mansion had several rooms shown. I've only watched in YT storylines, but I recall a living room, kitchen/dining, Alex and Rogers bedroom, Alan-michael's quarters with both Blake and Eleni. Philip and Beth's room. I think they had stables as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members chicklitsandfantasies Posted August 10, 2014 Members Share Posted August 10, 2014 I feel like the Crane mansion on Passions was huge. It did have a few wings. Alistair's bedroom, Julian's bedroom Little Ethan's room, the nursery, Ethan and Gwen's room,Fancy had two rooms, Pretty had a room, Fox's room, the kitchen, the foyer, the living room,the ballroom, Alistair's study, the poolhouse, the guest cottage. There were tunnels and I believe a hidden library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted August 10, 2014 Members Share Posted August 10, 2014 I remember the Spaulding Mansion had a guest house or pool house in 2007, when Rafe and Daisy hooked up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sindacco Posted August 10, 2014 Members Share Posted August 10, 2014 On Days, I think the old Kiriakis Mansion, the one that Kate set on fire, had more rooms and different areas than the DiMera Mansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted August 10, 2014 Members Share Posted August 10, 2014 I also think the Crane Mansion had the most rooms of any soap, plus looked like it was the size of a castle when they did those outside exterior shots. They seemed to always "add" a new room every year plus towards the end we had those secret passages and tunnels, and let's not forget Hecuba's old lair was underneath the grounds... TBH I always felt like there wasn't much to the Chancellor estate or Abbott houses. I know Kay's home was "a mausoleum" but I feel like we always just saw the Living room and very rarely other rooms like Kay's bedroom, the attic then the kitchen.
