I've found my dream house in Raleigh!
And it only cost $32,000,000! But it's worth it because it's on 71 acres and has 10 bedrooms and 12 bathrooms. "Expensive homes are everywhere in the Triangle, but with an eye-popping $32 million price tag, Peter Loftin's mansion stands way out.
Brokers said the huge home, with 40-foot-high ceilings, a 1930s-style movie theater and a built-in cigar humidor, is probably the most expensive home ever offered in the Triangle and possibly North Carolina." Come visit, there's plenty of room!

That's so funny, my husband and I were looking at that in the paper this morning! 12 bathrooms... I wonder if you'd ever use them all?? I can see someone thinking, "you know, I haven't used the loo in the west wing in a couple months... let's give it a whirl!"
I wonder how it compares to Biltmore...

room for more?
Hey, Adream, I thought we were on the same page in our home search! Your price range might be a little higher than ours... maybe we can chip in and have the wine cellar?  and maybe a small bathroom...gonna need it after the wine.

I think we'll all have to go in on this together - it'll take a small army just to keep those 12 bathrooms clean!

I will just pitch a tent near the water fountain, that would be fine with me.

Sorry jbognar! Take the Hallucination Highway, go right onto Dreamer Drive, then take your second left onto La-La Land Lane. Remember your toothbrush and jammies!

Wow. Just wow. I've heard and read about such disgusting displays of excess, but didn't think such a bad example would be so close.
