INSIDE A Never Before Seen $45,000,000 Great Gatsby Mansion

[@rsdotscot]

The exterior is stunning. The interior is absolutely horrifying.

[@m.lowery7291]

Its like a mausoleum - awful. I do not know how Ryan kept a straight face let alone how he kept from losing his lunch. And no, that isn’t a difference in taste, I see things that are not my taste and I can still appreciate the design skill that went into it. That house looks like someone in the precious stone business on crack. Absolutely the most hideous home I have ever seen, stunning on the exterior and a disaster on the interior. Can the stone be removed before they bulldoze the house for being a complete loss? The only value at all is in the land unless you can find another person with equally bad taste who has billions to buy it.

[@ThatRascalMerlin]

@@m.lowery7291 Good lord, panicky one ... get a grip on yourself. Have you never heard of remodeling? Have you never heard of carpet, paint, wallpaper, re-stoning, or re-tiling? Yes, it is mostly gawd-awful-gaudy on the inside ... like it was decorated by Versace, Picasso, and Salvador Dali, all tripping on mushrooms ... but taking into consideration some of the interior stonework is keepable, the exquisite grounds which would take _years_ to reproduce, and the very bones of a *stone* mansion of this size that overlooks Manhattan ... this place is *_priceless!_* And if you can afford the asking price and the $1500 a day in taxes, then the remodel and upkeep costs are likely pocket change. The things you are frantically whining and crying about are cosmetic! *"Bulldoze the house"?* Have you gone mad? Good grief, look at the big picture of this property and use your imagination ... for crying out loud! *_EEEPS!!!_*

I was thinking it looks pretty ‘80s. So maybe an old reno that didn’t try to carry the outside style?

[@michelrodrigues110]

Well. The house was nice and the russian billionaire, the last know owner redesigned the interior with the most prestigious work of labor, inlays and macheyerie of nobles marbles and even more exotic stones. We can relate how tacky the russian was and how hard the designers worked to fulfill his passion for the exaggeration. The issue is, who ever buy the Mansion is going crazy into maintainance beacuase of the ammount of details, labor, rarity and odd work out in every inch. THat[s why the hou is for sell since las decade with no habitants. Its a nightmare

Remember that episode in atlanta with that bizarre guy with the egg? I feel he would feel right at home This is the most bizarre house i've ever seen. The gardens are gorgeous, though; and i feel bad cause most of the stonework and mosaics are actually very intricate artisanal work and could be beautiful (albeit a little much for most people) if they weren't surrounded by SO. MUCH. CRAZINESS. There are a lot of elements that could be great in the right context -- but all of it together makes absolutely no sense. Plus the dollhouse/sea world pool is the most insane room i've ever seen.

Oh geezus 😂😂😂 the gaudy interior and everyone’s hilarious comments lol. The main problem with these mega mansions is that they are never updated and renovated. They live in a time warp because it’s just too much money to update homes of this size. In my opinion, something on a more manageable size where you can continually update the property is the way to go.
