Again it depends on what meanings you attach to that bigger pile of bricks and mortar.

For some people, it could mean privacy? rest? quiet? more comfort? a home, in which to share a happy life with a loving partner? a safe place, to raise children? A status symbol to boast to others? A basic necessity, without which life is very difficult? More space, and therefore a happier home for your two big dogs?

Of course, if it merely means a "pile of bricks and mortar" to you, then you may not have a great passion or desire for that.

Similarly, classic cars have no appeal to me. But I could understand that the idea of a classic car can offer different vibrations to other people.
