The house also has an 18-seat IMAX home theater, a 30-car subterranean garage, a wine cellar with room for about 3,000 bottles and a 1,300-gallon built-in aquarium. Y'all can tell me what day you would like to visit. I'll send my private jet. And please, no complaints about the theater that you don't like the IMAX format. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvu80 Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 (edited) You mean the wine is not included? Forget it… I leave the menial decisions to the service staff. If you insist on adult beverages I'll have them check my private marina to see what is in stock on the yacht. Remember, you are not staying in a guest room, you are staying in your own guest house. Did you see it has its own bowling alley? What kind of person who can afford $159 mil for a house has bowling for a pastime?
