Be sure to look at the photo of the staircase with the appalling mural--if that doesn't scream Dream Princess, I'm not sure what does. Everything else has a real grandeur about it--the type of grandeur that requires a made-up familial crest to complete.


It is 100 years old. The outside doesn't seem so bad, for a billionaire playboy. That mural is kind of horrifying, though.

No, the exterior is fine, but the interior decor is unattractive--the mural is a horror. Some of it kind of reminds me of Hearst Castle--lots of stuff pilfered from different periods and styles.

I think I'd go all silver on the inside like Warhol's Factory.

I guess 45millions does buy a lot of bad taste if you go by the pound...
