INSANE NEW STAR WARS home just dropped on Zillow:
15BRs, 19BAs, ~21K sf, whole house Laser Tag, 6 miles from Walt Disney World. $11.5M; rentals help pay the mortgage.
Epic #FridayNightZillow thread starts NOW: zillow.com/homedetails/11…

This brand new megamansion is designed, I think, to be a perfect vacation joint for a BIG family reunion. I don't see a Luke Skywalker, but there is a Vader, droids, and a Rey. Up to 16 kids sleep in fun bunk rooms. Hmm. CC: @HamillHimself. #FridayNightZillow

Baby yoda makes an appearance in what *I think* is the Naboo room. #FridayNightZillow

The Star Wars mansion also features the perfect laundry room. Which you might need if you have ~40 people staying here! #FridayNightZillow

#FridayNightZillow will return after I eat dinner. It is going to be truly epic.

I'm not really sure what that long corridor is with Vader at the end of it. Storage closets? Video game stations? #FridayNightZillow

Another fun Star Wars connection: Part of this Los Angeles property was the home of the producer of Star Wars? $2.495M "Own a piece of Hollywood history in an exclusive paradise setting!"
On "Elusive Drive" to boot.

Must have been Gary Kurtz? Found this tribute blog post:

"He asked me to meet him at his house in the Hollywood Hills on Elusive Drive. My first thought was, never had a man lived on a more appropriate street." #FridayNightZillow #StarWarsZillow

Another bonkers home on #FridayNightZillow: Oak Brook, Illinois. Really unbelievable find by my sister-in-law.

This FAMILY ROOM OF THE GODS alone features a 17' tall fireplace, hand-painted coffered ceiling, 1,400 sf

$5M

Prepare. Your. Retinas. #FridayNightZillow

Wine room on left, throne-tub on right. #FridayNightZillow

What? Help me understand what is going on here. #FridayNightZillow

Posting this sweet Arizona castle for just one reason:
Urinal gets its own upscale enclosure! #FridayNightZillow
zillow.com/homedetails/40…

"Western White House" just dropped on Zillow!
*11BRs, 14BAs, 25K sf, $25M*
Looks sort of like the real thing, if the WH still had a sweet pool. California on #FridayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/40…

"Redesigned in 1930 by Julia Morgan, California's first woman architect and the first woman admitted to the Beaux-Arts de Paris architecture program..."
She also designed the Hearst Castle?
I think this room was inspired by the Oval Office. #FridayNightZillow

Time for a change of pace.
SWEET BOWLING ALLEY. Just $250K! More than 9K sf!
Jerome, Idaho on #FridayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/15…

Maine paradise in Kennebunkport!
Address is "34 Road to Misery" LOL
Just *$690K* buys you ~43 acres & sweet, sustainable, artistic off-grid home. LOVE THIS. ♥️♥️♥️♥️❤️ #FridayNightZillow
zillow.com/homedetails/34…

Sort of like if somebody moved to Endor from Tatooine and brought their architecture with them. #FridayNightZillow

$65K buys you a cute, real, renovated, nice-looking house in Jamestown, NY.

*Less than $430 a month to own this*

Affordable housing on #FridayNightZillow!
zillow.com/homedetails/13…

Forgot the h/t on the Maine house. Thanks!

If you aren't mega-mansioned out, This ~$11M palace-like home in New Jersey awaits. Previously listed for ~$25M. Taxes are close to *$20K a month* (SALT cap ouchietown!). I like this kitchen as I'm a sucker for light-colored wood. #FridayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/8-…

I don't understand why this listing is 100 MILLION DOLLARS. 4 acres. California coastline. Small house.

I'd rather buy, like, a small town somewhere. Or a place with a mansion on it already? #FridayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/29…

This Georgia megamansion getting a mention for one reason: This sweet library. $4.5M #FridayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/57…

Affordable housing? CHECK.
Rehoboth Beach? CHECK.

3BRs, 2BAs, 1600 sf.

🔥$95K🔥

WH reporters should buy this sweet doublewide for covering Biden trips?

There is a catch. #FridayNightZillow
zillow.com/homedetails/36…

This is the catch: "Lot Rent of approx. $766/mt., which includes trash/recycle, seasonal lawn service pool & fitness center membership."

Also, rentals shorter than 6 months not allowed. (Bummer? Maybe rent out for school year and you stay during the season?) #FridayNightZillow

Will resume #FridayNightZillow after putting the twins to sleep.

Sharing this Rhode Island home for two reasons:
1) PROPER TELEVISION PLACEMENT.

2) And, oh, the axes and swords everywhere.
$1.275M. Nice house. #FridayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/34…

Three Words: TAKOMA. PARK. CASTLE.

Surprised this place is just $875K? #FridayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/74…

Up next: VERMONT CASTLE. Which kicks the Takoma Park Castle's but in every way. #FridayNightZillow

TWO WORDS: VERMONT CASTLE.

Sort of a faux castle, but probably my favorite dream home of the week. $2.6M, solar, stunning views, beautiful interior, library of the gods. #FridayNightZIllow
zillow.com/homedetails/15…

This library is perfect. #FridayNightZillow

$50M buys the Penthouse at this cray cray Miami tower. A total no from me on account of I would have nausea and vertigo from my fear of heights. But maybe it's your thing?
7BRs, 14BAs, >19K sf
Comes with an Aston Martin for some reason. #FridayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/30…

This Georgia mansion really is excess to the 9th degree. Not my style AT ALL. Maybe though you are looking for this sort of thing, which could double as a wedding venue for guys who want to putt on the putting green after. #FridayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/53…

A classic for #FridayNightZillow: A huge home that doubles as an airplane hangar. 2BRs, 5BAs, 7K+sf!

"Scissor-lift conveys!" LOL. Texas. zillow.com/homedetails/63…

Affordable, HUGE waterfront Portland, Oregon home. WHAT? $275K. >4K sf. There are some issues and a catch... #FridayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/13…

The house is...er...floating. But still. Super cheap for 2021. #FridayNightZillow

Next up: Possibly the best example of real estate inflation in Washington, DC. #FridayNightZillow

Holy housing price inflation, Batman!

"Price increase: $950K."

Washington, DC, east of the Anacostia.

No interior photos. 3BR, 1BA, 972 sf, .85 acre.

$1.35M? What???

Sold for $330K in 2019. #FridayNightZillow
zillow.com/homedetails/24…

Meanwhile, there is legit affordable housing over in Mississippi. 6BRs, a nice kitchen, 4K sf, for $119,500? #FridayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/97…

There's a dividing line between the ~$2M-6M @mcmansionhell homes & the $30M+ estates that feel like you are living in a museum. This is such a house. $29.995M. It's a treat and worth your click. California #FridayNightZillow
zillow.com/homedetails/25…

You know you have money when your ceilings look like this. #FridayNightZillow

Could have been carved from a European estate. Except doesn't have that faded musty look European palaces sometimes do. #FridayNightZillow

You could film an American version of Downton here. Even my already-singed retinas perk up clicking through this place. #FridayNightZillow

This kitchen makes me want to cry. #FridayNightZillow

You had me at "turret of the gods" #FridayNightZillow

I've never quite understood the point of beds like this. Seems like a pain to change the sheets. #FridayNightZillow

Perfect closet. Perfect bathroom. Perfect bath. Perfect turret. #FridayNightZillow

Bathroom art is a nice touch. Really, nicer than most museums. Amazing house. But again, it better be for $30M! #FridayNightZillow

Winding down #FridayNightZillow: Only a few homes more. You won't want to miss them...

Winfield Hall / The Woolworth Estate in Glen Cove, New York was damaged by fire in 2015, but clearly still is spectacular. And it's on #FridayNightZillow

Staircase alone reportedly cost $2M, about a century ago.

12BRs, 11BAs, 30K sf, 16 acres, $9.995M. zillow.com/homedetails/77…

You can read more about Winfield Hall here. Worth a click: untappedcities.com/2021/06/16/win…

Getting sleepy. So going to wrap this up with one, last megamansion. So insane it is hard to wrap my head around. #FridayNightZillow

This last home has a lap pool of the gods.

Final home on this edition of #FridayNightZillow is an epic, modern Colorado ranch complex on 250 acres. If I had $42M, I'd seriously consider it. Like nothing I've ever seen. Let's take the tour, shall we? #FridayNightZillow zillow.com/homedetails/24…

Kitchen is a sweet custom job. Whirlpool atop a stone tower. Just like you dreamed up. And a bar out of a movie. #FridayNightZillow

All the toys: Lap pool of the gods. Indoor turf thing. Jail cell. #FridayNightZillow

Does your megamansion have its own snowplow and fleet of snowmobiles? Didn't think so! #FridayNightZillow

Another perfect closet #FridayNightZillow.

Ok, that's it. Let me know which homes you loved, hated, or loved to hate; otherwise, see you in the next one! #FridayNightZillow

BTW, the Casteel Creek estate lists like 70K square feet of space, 18BRs, 32BAs. It’s one of the largest homes available on Zillow. Didn’t quite do it justice because I got zonked. Would have been the lede house but Star Wars intervened.

Addendum: I think the Star Wars house is in the same neighborhood as this one from last week. I think it must be a new reunion rental paradise, each mansion with their own themes? This one has a casino and princess rooms:
