The dining room is epic but keep scrolling…

Plenty of room for a piano. Or several pianos.

I was going to say that 16 bathrooms was excessive, but then I saw the ... "pool room"...

So many different styles in different rooms! Dining room: rococo.

I can just imagine my little Subaru Impreza in the garage…

For people who like this kind of house, this is the kind of house they will like.

Realistically, that is a lot of house for the price, I think, but you would really need to like some of the features. The massive interior log trim and the jungle pool room come immediately to mind.

I wonder what the history of the property was if it was built in 1997, fell into ruin, and was then restored to its present state.

Meanwhile, that CT website may represent peak internet.

It’s so badly polluted with low grade advertising it’s close to unreadable.

I don't see any ads. I use Brave; I think it's wickedly efficient at blocking them.

I couldn’t read it at all until I shut off Adblock. Once I did that I still couldn’t read it.

I’ll have to try Brave.
