Damn people, stop judging before going to Alabama. If you never been there why base your opinion off of what you hear? I bet if it was New York or Cali people would love it even though, they are more problematic than Alabama. Viva la Bama🇺🇸

[@ArizonaWillful]

The worst ratings for quality of life, along with Mississippi and Louisiana. The least educated people, the worst obesity, the highest poverty in the nation, extremely backward racial and social views....anything else I missed?

@@ArizonaWillful your definitions for quality of life, what constitutes ‘backward’ social views, and an acknowledgement that CA and NY may be highly mis-educated. See merry hunt below. However , Alabama’s not for me. Still too many people who don’t like my permanent suntan. Ohio river valley (north side) or Midwest is the place. Got any jillion dollar mansions there to look at?

[@fightingbear8537]

The house looks fine to me. There my be a few interior things I might change, but nothing major.

[@maggiesatterfield2402]

I hate to say it but the only three things that I would change in the entire house and grounds are the draperies, the "guitar (removed), and the theater (gone). It is a waste of space.

[@roberharpane3524]

Absolutely stunning home by modern day standards. I've been a builder my entire life & I'm telling you,, it would be challenging indeed to put together such a beautiful home & grounds such as this. Just viewing from this video,, the work all seemed top notch professionally & the architect did a fantastic job blending the different Euro styles to complete this stunner. One of the best parts?? It's the owners! To have built & lived in such a magnificent home,, they both seem just as cordial & down to earth as they possibly could be. I love the part where she states,, "living here is like living on vacation",, she's very fortunate & seemingly hasn't lost sight of that. Most people living in a home so luxurious,, you'd be hard pressed to even get them to comment for a YT video! This gentleman laid his money on the line along with a ton of hard work & dreams to put together something that will hopefully stand for hundreds of yrs. to come. I sincerely hope they don't lose on the sale,, there should be a premium of it's price just for putting such a gorgeous package together like this,, that within itself is worth a lot. So much planning & so much careful decision making to make the end result so fitting. I've been successful in my lifetime but no way I can afford this baby. If I could,, I love my home state of S. Carolina but I'd probably be forced to relocate a few states southeast of me! Ha,, and I really don't care that much for larger homes much either!!

If it was good enough for Rhett Butler and Scarlet O'Hara, it should be good enough for anyone.

[@geraldinediffenbacher8368]

Good take.

[@maggiesatterfield2402]

Actually, it was the dream home of Larry House, the former CEO of MedPartners, a healthcare-staffing firm. House resigned his position in 1998, right before the company was sued by its shareholders. This happened around the same time that House settled a costly divorce. The mansion was sold to settle the divorce and to pay back the shareholders. I live in Birmingham and watched this play out on the nightly news.

Another Southerner - they love the LiberTurds slams while living in the state with the lowest quality of life factors for high poverty, low educational attainment, obesity and other health problems, premature death, and racial/social backwardness. Yet they keep voting GOP to sustain all this and just suck up all the idiocy from Fox News and spout it on KZbin as if it is a brilliant commentary.

How do you bid in this kind of auction ?

[@danoart8988]

I never did like a double staircase. I much prefer one beautiful stairway with a balcony at the top. Two is just one too many. It reminds me of a hotel instead of a home. Now I do like one staircase, going up to a landing and then doubling off to two. That is grand to me. But I like only one starting place on a stairway. My favorite staircase in the world is the one at 12 Oaks on the movie Gone With the Wind; Ashley‘s home. That is the epitome of the most grand and most beautiful staircase in the world.

[@validpoint9854]

The reason this property took so many years to finally sell in at a rock-bottom bargain-basement price it's due to the location. It is located way down 280 then a turn down another long road way back in the woods of Shoal Creek neighborhood. I absolutely hate it! It is totally inconvenient. If it were in Mountain Brook closer to Birmingham it would have sold for a lot more money and a lot quicker. This property just sold last fall for a rock bottom price it could easily have another 3 or 4 million spent on repairing and upgrading it. Another 5 or 10 million Furnishing it properly. Then what have you got? A money pit in An Inconvenient area

[@puppylover6512]

How many minutes in the car is it to the shops?

[@barrysmith8917]

No, that's not it. It's in a super prestigious PGA golf community. Many famous people live there. Simply the price. Not too many nouveau riche people in Birmingham with that kind of money....when it was priced at about 10 million for so long but started out at about 43 million...as I recall.
