Wow...if this was in California it would probably be going for around $50 Million!

Abandoned behemoth with 46 bedrooms -- or 'more like 70' -- is for sale in Texas (where else?)

According to the aerial picture, the house next door is half the size.

I should have read it better a month or so when the story first came out it said the smaller of the two was for sale. Looks like I was incorrect

The owner obviously prefers quantity over quality.

Rather than being called a mansion, let's just call it what it is...a crap box.

In a better part of Texas, it would be $50M as well. Pearland isn't exactly the Montecito/Menlo Park/Brentwood of Houston.

No, a BIG crap box!

In the old days they called those "follies". That is a big crap box folly.

Hopefully the laborers got paid.
