This most definitely works better as a venue than a home. It doesn't feel warm enough to me to be a home. But I would absolutely use it as a venue.

Honestly no matter how rich I was, I would never want a house this big. It just feels so empty and bland. And no offense but as a European there's no way this would fool any European, this feels American and fake as hell

Maybe this is an unpopular opinion but when I see these rich fancy homes with all this marble and stone and archways with intricate detail etc... it just makes my eyes feel tired. How would you ever rest there? Like the Palace of Versailles. Too decorative... Too busy for me to even imagine living there, as if I ever could anywayslmao, but would be cool to visit just to see.

I agree. It’s a museum, not a home. And these large places never ever age well. This is a money pit waiting to happen. The upkeep alone would be astronomical. Fine place for Bezos to stay when he’s in Houston. Or maybe Elon Musk is looking for a new home. Just nope. If I had a billion dollars I would not buy this place.

This house represent US perfectly. They think they really did Smth, when in reality this Hause is hilariously putting diff timeframes together and it is horrendous. But the audacity to put the Versailles in a sentence with this monstrosity is lack of common sense and taste.

All looks a bit "Las Vegas" to me - so far over the top it's down the other side! The other comments about taste/use of money etc say it all. The original French chateau architects and builders would be turning in their graves if they saw it.

Agreed... Trying too hard to look like something it simply can't be. Especially since "European" doesn't mean anything as typical Spanish, French, Flemish, Swedish, etc. houses are super different anyway. I'm glad the future owner loves it, but it's simply just expensive bad taste to me.

This is one of my favorite channels on KZread. Great content.

That's a castle in the thumnail... the exterior is acceptable, the interior is whiffy. Noticed in the comments a lot of people don't understand the difference between pretentious and gaudy...

You can tell the architects couldn’t decide between making this a SF residence or a party venue

Lincoln, FYI, in Europe thar outside structure is known as a "folly" when made of stone. Gazebos were historically made of wood. On this side of The Pond we peasants tend to lump them all in the latter category.

This property is actually close to where I live. Lol

If it's not zoned for business and only for residential the house will probably never sell. Not too many cities are willing to change zoning regulations.

Love that gothic courtyard. But otherwise this is too disney. There's too many historical styles mixed in together

Stunning!!😍

Lovely Estate.❤

This can be used as Event venue for wedding parties and stuff

The kitchen is beautiful, we love this estate...

It is good for hotels or place to hold banquets.

Look at the size of the bathrooms you know it is for large events such as wedding banquets.

Been here for a few weddings. Overpriced place. Don't think anyone has ever lived here, its been used for wedding venues for years.

Would make a great boutique hotel!

I appreciate how much more modern this is minus the antique furniture but usually they are decorated in the 11th century Romanesque style which was the style when they were originally built. I get most want to decorate it in that time period but is it really required, can’t someone decorate in their own style for once and be original to their selves? I guess to each their own, everyone has different tastes and I can appreciate that in itself. This is stunning and I thank you for showing it to us all, how I would love to walk the halls and just explore.

I can see a venue/RBB.

Kids would love playing hide and seek in that house.

ONLY 11 Million?! WOW, the cost of shipping and materials and work hours that's a steal. If this house was anywhere near a coast east or west the cost would be double or even triple. Texas and the south always have the biggest cheapest real estate. And for everyone saying this house is not a "family home" of course it is not- it's made for a Larger family and multi-generational estate. Not your typical Nuclear American Family Doy! and the size is perfect for becoming a wedding venue, party, and Bar mitzpha and making revenue for that and it would not invade your everyday family areas! If I could afford this, I definitely would love to buy this. Maybe in the future with some investors. I'd def buy something similar if at all possible. 1 of a kind. Side note In in VA and wedding venues alone can cost more than the actual wedding rentals and food etc. not to mention they are always fully booked and No were near as nice or large as this place!

It’s very interesting looking and I think the materials and workmanship are excellent. However, it still looks like it was built in 2005. So it looks out of place in a way. Now, if someone was offering me this house for free, with all the upkeep included, I would take it on a heartbeat. It would make a great venue

This home is my style! It is not over done or under done. Like Goldilocks.

Its too perfect

I wanna see yall turn into Houston flipsters

Better as a venue than as a house.

200k or something. Enough to buy a small house in many places.

I like that you showed this to us. But jeez it's so tacky! There are beautiful elements, but it's so busy and over the top and the white and gold in that "ballroom" is just, kitsch. I would never want to live in it, especially not in this state. Such a waste of space and money.

Ok but was that a Disney Haunted Mansion reference there with the "999 of your closest friends"?

It is very beautiful and it looks like you're up but it also looks like a casino at some places I think the Ballrooms should have a higher ceiling and a little bit more sophisticated but they are very beautiful

I been looking at this house for purchase for years this video has me closer . Drop 2 million also

Definitely my dream home 😍😍😍

Agree with most comments. Would never buy it. Does not feel homey. Cold & tacky.

Only the exterior and landscape was beautiful. Inside was a bit blah.

On one hand I can understand why someone with enough money would want a house like this. However, you said it "feels" like a French chateau but honestly it's not only just an image of a European building, it's hideous. American temporary homes look really great in my opinion with awesome design but American houses like this consist of historic style elements put in a blender, ridiculously augmented and thrown on a good piece of land.. 😒 don't get me wrong: the craftsmanship, execution and selection of materials is great but I would rather buy a stylish modern home for my 11M 😋

That is not a home, but would make a great event place.

that's not a fucking house that's a palace

I would choose to live in a 200sqm house than this

Close to 1/2 million in taxes due...Who built this?

I mean the style is similar to a European style, but as a European I can 100% tell it is new. It really looks like the fake monopoly building feel Vegas has. 😬 but I guess it’s the closest Americans can get to the hundreds and sometimes thousands of year old building we have in Europe. I can appreciate the try. ❤️

Wow who lived or lives there? Crazy. I love some aspects of it but its sort of insanely too much. If I was rich I would not want anything soo big.

No pool? For that reason I’m out 😜

So much money...so little taste.

It’s not worth 11 million if it doesn’t have a secret passage way to a hidden room 😂

Are they asking you to make this sound good? Just asking because usually you guys make fun of wood paneling and now you called it beautiful lol It would make a great wedding venue or event space though

Imagine having to clean all those bathrooms. lol Thats too much house.

I would never purchase this even if I could 😖😖

😍😍

If I am that rich to afford this, trust me... I'd build a modern Iron Man Tony Stark house. I would not waste my time with this type of house. I am just saying.

That's stupid 13 baths but 7 rooms? No

Wow what does it matter when you're not the one selling the house so why so it on your KZread

It’s not for everyone wont make sense to majority of people
