I would hate to be the one to appraise that house. I watched the whole video and it was like a horrific accident where you know you shouldn't look, but you can't seem to turn away.

That is one weird house. I don't get migraines, but I think being in that house for more than 10 mins might give me one. Whew. That painting in it's own shrine in the hallway would be the first thing to go. I could probably demo it all by myself.

Now I can stop wondering what that house looks like inside every time I drive past it. I may purposely drive past at night, though, to see the glowing eyeball.

Oh my goodness! I'm dying here. I'm not sure I can get past the living room! When the fog came out I lost it!
How can he be so serious?!

I bet if you turned off all those LED lighting effects, the place would be quite interesting. Otherwise it looks like you're living in a disco.
Why is he selling it with everything in it? Did he join a cult?
ETA: Or did he get married and his bride took one look and said 'no freaking way am I living here!'

Oh gross. What a hot mess of a house. Now I need a shower- I feel so creeped out from just watching that.

"The shower is big enough for four people..." Uh...I don't know what he thinks is supposed to be going on in that "Cave Bathroom" but, okay.

Someone's taken the video and added different narration. Parts of it are pretty funny: www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gTZHTILrLIWhat really boggled my brain was the office. A ton of money was spent on the rest of the house, and the office does have a built-in desk. So, why couldn't he have paid an electrician to put phone and electrical outlets in the desk or next to it so cords aren't trailing all over the room?

Bigger question: Why didn't the extensive remodel include central air? He has wall units in all of the bedrooms which seems a little old school for the fortress. Unless he was really trying to make it just like Mexico.

Yes, well, you and 3 others can take advantage of his cave bathroom's shower, handily enough.

We camped in St Cloud this past weekend. I tried to get our long motorcycle ride to detour to the house, but they weren't as interested as I.

I wish it was a regular sale and there was an open house. I'd totally go!

Holy wow! I love the view and the pool. The rest of it...not my style or taste. And I don't have any style!

I once talked with a realtor at a cocktail party about houses like that which are so customized. Apparently they are VERY difficult to sell, because if you have that much money, you want your OWN dream, not someone else's hand-me-down.

And that is why you will never hear an interior decorator say that they got their training at a medical school.
Can you imagine the realtor showing up for the first time? I wouldn't have been able to get through the tour with the owner without giggling the entire time. Finding out this is in Minnesota is the icing on the cake. Maybe he'll now move to Florida and build his dream igloo-themed mansion.

I was very surprised when I realized it was in Minnesota. It might actually sell at the southern end of the Mississippi.

I may have a touch of OCD. I can't get over the "Posiedon" and ocean themes - on the river. That doesn't even make sense.

Not for me - I couldn't live with all those fish and all that red. Or that fireplace surround. I got to the gym and had to turn it off. I did like the pool and the view though.
Well, if he can't sell it, he could rent it out to the local madam or pimp. With all those laser lights and the red flashing heart, it would be a perfect brothel.

I admit, I watched it all the way through. What a treat when you actually get to see the guy speaking of this palace! I just have no words, though. Seriously. But I did like the pool!!

It is fairly late at night here. I just watched some of that video and I am honestly scared. It looks like a horror film with a large budget. That eye on the door, the beating heart. Everything just kind of scared me.
Yuck!

Oh hell, I'm judging. I sure am.
He's weird.
And I would choose another anesthesiologist.
