Among many other things for sale, they have antique thrones, life-size statues of the Blues Brothers, and an F-84 Thunderstreak fighter jet.
The property itself is listed as 18,000 square feet (1680 square meters) on 160 acres (1.6 hectares) in Asheboro, North Carolina of all places (best known as the home of the North Carolina Zoo, the world’s largest natural habitat zoo).
The directions on how to get there are wild. First you enter a gated community, and then you gotta drive FOR A MILE to a property called "The train station", which is, a parking lot with no trains. From here you need to travel ANOTHER mile, I assume on foot, to the property.
And every step of the way, they assure you, multiple times, that these buildings all have restrooms.
If they said it once, I'd not have thought twice about it. But they repeat it like 4 more times that they have restrooms. Now I'm suspicious why that point had to be driven home so hard. I don't even know what the conspiracy is, but I'm still suspicious of their bathrooms.
The restrooms obviously distracted you from the part where they tell you about the shuttle service from the "train station" to the property. But they don't mention if the shuttle stops at any restrooms on their way, so I would not use it.
“with many styles and movements represented, such as Art Nouveau, Art Deco, Neoclassical, Baroque, Eastlake, Hollywood Regency, Greco-Roman, Rococo, Victorian, French Empire, Asian, and, of course Antique and traditional American”
All that junk and not a single magic lamp. Dibs on the Lenny G sign tho
I'll take the life-size Blues Brothers, please.
