“Way-out features abound in a John’s Creek, Ga., home, which, with its 58 acres of dazzling Moroccan-themed corridors, gilded moldings and landscaped gardens, evokes Liberace. But even the famously flamboyant pianist might not have dreamed up perks like a seashell-shaped amphitheater large enough to seat an orchestra and a pool to match, an Asian tea garden and a replica 1950s ice cream parlor. The eccentric baron that takes on this luxury playhouse will pay around US$13.9 million—a bargain, considering the sellers value it at $35 million.”
