The problem with dream homes is that they are your dream and your dream alone. They will be lucky if it fetches more than $10m. The grounds are exquisite, but it will take a year and another $4m to remodel the house so that you don't feel as if you are stuck in an 80's time warp. It's a great structure and has enormous potential, but the interior needs a complete remodeling to appeal to any buyer with pockets that deep today.

Did anyone else find the "doll house" game room entirely too creepy?

I loved the architecture; but found the combination of pure contemporary structural design w/the furnishings inside not to my liking. I would update the inside w/all contemporary, beautiful lines of furniture, colors, etc. to fit w/the exquisite exterior look. The interior feels a tad dated. But WOW! what a place. On a maintenance level, not only would I hate to paint it, but what about keeping that baby clean and dusted?!!!

So all you have to do is be smart enough to make a few hundred million yourself and see what you come up with.

The only suspended ceiling on the property was in a maintenance barn across the street and there are more than one kitchen. There is one below that one, just hop in the elevator and there you are

The "doll house" as you put it was actually based on a Western Town and was for the grandkids to play in

[almadenmike]

Interesting that the inventor of the drop ceiling didn't have any in his dream home ... except maybe in the garage? And as large as that house is, the counter/working space in the kitchen looked to be so small and disjointed. My 2,400-square-foot remodeled home has a larger and more functional kitchen.

Any commentary on the water quality as of late on Lake Erie would be appreciated.

Wow. Can you imagine how many GALLONS of Windex this place would need in a years time?

Me either.

Ewww... not my kinda house, I'm more than satisfied with my 7 story walk-up close to the stores.

@denisedin1 There was a TV commercial I wish I could find that sums up my response perfectly. It starts with a garish lady pointing out all the items in her house and exactly how much she spent e.g., $8,000 on a zebra-print sofa. The point is, it doesn't matter how much you spend. Tacky is still tacky and this furniture looks cheap, regardless of the actual cost. This is an ultra-modern house that has been decorated with a hodgepodge of awful furniture that in no way fits its character.

[denisedin1]

this house is beautiful. oh by the way the furniture cost more than most peoples houses. anyone who would buy and change anything about this house dosen't know anything about real beauty.
