Starting off an epic #SaturdayNightZillow, a gorgeous California megamansion with this crazy room.

11K sf, a movie theater unlike any I've seen before, 6BR/7BA, a lot of quirky fun stuff and eye candy.

"Artistic masterpiece" $8.45M. Read on... 1/
zillow.com/homedetails/29…

This is a first for me in Zillow-watching: Beds in the theater room. "Impressive home theater and meditation sanctuary" per the listing. I'm guessing the crazy Escher-style room (or is it Dazzle camouflage?) leads to it. #SaturdayNightZillow

These big homes all seem to have party showers these days. #SaturdayNightZillow

Not sure about having upholstered furniture in the bathroom. But it looks nice. #SaturdayNightZIllow

Really just a nice house. The bedroom is too big for my taste, but the grounds are pretty, and if it was, say, 1/10th the price I'm in! #SaturdayNightZIllow

Next up on #SaturdayNightZillow: a fantasy castle estate in Woodstock, Connecticut. It's *INSANE* and priced like it too. $35M.
126-foot towers, 18K+ sf, 9BR/7+BA/12 fireplaces, *75 acres*, MOAT
h/t @DrewSav zillow.com/homedetails/45…

The interior of the castle has quirks. Almost overstuffed. I assume owned by a collector? Is that a mummy sarcophagus, totem pole, etc? #SaturdayNightZillow

The kitchen is a little visually disorienting though spectacular. I kind of imagine it's where Merlin whips up some potions. #SaturdayNightZillow

There is a long, strange, sad story behind this castle. Read through the link about the man who built it:

Even more about the castle here. A lot of weird tends to accompany castle building in my experience:

Up next on #SaturdayNightZillow, a 10K sf Nevada party mansion with a *colossal* LAZY RIVER, a waterfall w/ hidden grotto, two jacuzzis + views of Lake Mead. Um, isn't there a water shortage out West? zillow.com/homedetails/10…

Inside is sort of fairly standard megamansion fare. Suit of armor, kitchen that is almost too large. Nice water wheel/kitschy old West thing going on outside. #SaturdayNightZillow

Surprised this house is just $3.9M honestly. You could charge admission to that lazy river.

Strong "Mirror, Mirror on the Wall, Whose the Fairest of Them All" energy in this bathroom. But, as @StephanieKelton notes, no toilet paper???

Have you ever wanted to own a mansion designed as a showcase for your classic car collection? Well, have I got a house for you!!!
Parking for 25 cars. $1.75M. 30 acres! Pennsylvania is on #SaturdayNightZillow
zillow.com/homedetails/10…

Both my wife and my sister-in-law separately sent me this listing so you know it's worth a click through. #SaturdayNightZillow

Strong Ferris Bueller's Day Off energy.

Next up: $550K buys you a hangar that's also a 2BR home. Now, that's convenience!

Wasilla, Alaska, hometown of Sarah Palin, is on #SaturdayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/49…

Up next, AFFORDABLE MAINE ISLAND COTTAGE. You'd own one 1/6th interest in a 39-acre private island. You get a high cottage with 1K sf, solar power and spectacular views.

Just $550K! #SaturdayNightZillow
zillow.com/homedetails/0-…

52 of us could put in $11K each and have a week a year for life on this island.

NEW JERSEY represent on #SaturdayNightZIllow. OMG this crazy estate. Prepare your retinas. I'm not really sure *how* to describe this decor? $3.3M. and 7BR/have 7BA, nearly 7 acres. Pools, slides, party time! zillow.com/homedetails/23…

My eyes don't know how to process this door. Is this a normal thing in New Jersey??? Imagine bringing groceries in and having to avoid tripping down the marble. #SaturdayNightZillow

Sweet indoor pool on the left, party sauna (seats 8) on the right. Some insane parties were held here. #SaturdayNightZillow

They call this a "hibachi table." Who says you can't learn new things on Zillow? #SaturdayNightZillow

Not sure whether to love this TV setup or hate it. It seems a little distracting. #SaturdayNightZillow

Affordable CANADA housing on #SaturdayNightZillow. The southern tip of Nova Scotia has a cute 2BR cottage near beaches, lighthouse. $109K in Canadian dollars. A bargain? 52 of us should put $2K in each for a week for life!
zillow.com/homedetails/15…

Possible bargain of the week, if you like bright colors. $225K gets you a big, bold house with central air.
5BR, 3BA, 3K+ sf on a big lot. Things are cheaper in Goldsboro, North Carolina on #SaturdayNightZillow! zillow.com/homedetails/41…

Listing calls this place "a license to print money" -- a 7-unit Victorian and an adjacent restaurant for $638K. Looks like it should be in the movies on the outside at least...

Vermont on #SaturdayNightZillow
zillow.com/homedetails/46…

I've, uh, seen nicer pools. But it's Vermont. How often are you going to go swimming anyway? #SaturdayNightZillow

$286K gets you a ~6600 sf, 6BR real house on .75 acre in Illinois. Monthly payment $1417. Why do we live in expensive places again? The Internet exists. #SaturdayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/34…

This is a fun one. OWN YOUR OWN CAVE. Tourist attraction "Jacob's Cave" just north of Lake of the Ozarks. $3.42M, 223 acres. Did I mention, CAVE! Versailles, Missouri on #SaturdayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/23…

NEW CONSTRUCTION. Gold toilets. Rolls parked in front. Who did they build this for? Gaudy turned up to 11. New York on #SaturdayNightZillow. $7.888M, dubbed "Palace of Brookville" zillow.com/homedetails/2-…

This is *a sink.* #SinkZillow #SaturdayNightZillow

These bathrooms just have me laughing. Like, WHAT? #SaturdayNightZillow

Dream kitchen. But there better be one for $7.888M! #SaturdayNightZillow.

Funky East Hampton House. And by funky, I mean FUNKY. 4BR, 3BA, $975K. Not for everybody. Artists involved. #SaturdayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/11…

Posting this house for one reason:

THIS TV IS TOO DAMN HIGH.

Hope you enjoyed #SaturdayNightZillow!

Last house of the night really looks like an interior designer spent some time on it. May not be your style but I like it. La Cornue range, a lot of nice rooms and colors in a world of beige houses. Shelby, NC. zillow.com/homedetails/52…

Drone video of that Connecticut castle, which appears to be on an island. There are two separate bridges over the moat.
