Won the lottery? Then we have the perfect home for you HERE! Having fun. And go-kart track

You have won the jackpot in the lottery. Congratulations! Well, taxes would have to be paid first. And then something on the pension side and things like that. But after that, there will still be enough left for a beautiful building, right?

A property with a bit of a twist if possible. Maybe a swimming pool… Weird, a bit of space and all.

Hmm… for $20 million – about R18 million – here’s what we have to offer in Gilbert, in the greater Phoenix, Arizona area:

Come on in!

We quote the real estate advertisement: “As you enter the entrance hall, you are greeted by high ceilings, beautiful natural wood floors and an abundance of natural light illuminating every corner of the expansive interior, seamlessly blending elegance and functionality.”

Five bedrooms and six bathrooms are spread over a total living area of ​​no less than 866 m2².

Such a bedroom is of course generously sized.

Very impressive. But that is also available elsewhere. What is really not available everywhere is this:

We quote again from the real estate advertisement:

«Enjoy the highest level of sophistication with this exceptional two-storey dressing room, where opulence and functionality harmonize to create an oasis for the fashion-conscious elite. Spanning two floors, this thoughtfully designed space provides the ultimate retreat to organize and display your wardrobe in unparalleled style.”

And yes, the master of the house also gets his own dressing room. Not two floors, but with a TV.

This is what the kitchen looks like:

And oh yes, there are quite a few roof terraces and the like.

Let’s take a step outside, where everything is beautifully designed to match the local desert vegetation.

The entire estate covers 1.7 hectares. There are about three football fields, there you will find ponds and palm trees and gardens described in the sales description «lush landscape and panoramic views of the meticulously maintained grounds» are referred. MMM nice.

And of course there is also a great swimming pool with fountain.

A swimming pool in which you can swim directly to the bar, of all things.

And a hot tub with its own fire pit!

And for those warm summer evenings (in Phoenix you can’t go outside during the day anyway) a nice party cabana. With outdoor kitchen, fireplace, fountain and so on.

Ha – and four horseshoe posts next to it! Logically you play horseshoe boccia – after all, geographically (and culturally) Phoenix is ​​part of the Wild West.

But there is also a basketball court. Indoor. And with huge ceiling fans, stands, digital scoreboard and all the bells and whistles.

And then there’s this ominous building:

Okay, buckle up: «Enter THE MAN CAVE and be surprised by a spacious space where refinement and functionality blend seamlessly.»

“The heart of this entertainment paradise is the state-of-the-art professional kitchen, equipped with top of the line appliances, custom cabinetry and an island, providing the perfect setting for culinary enthusiasts to showcase their skills while entertaining guests.”

That would look like this:

It also has a golf simulator.

You can play here.

Here you can get fit.

Watch movies here…

…and have your ballet rehearsal here.

Oh yeah: “For passionate dancers there is a fully equipped dance studio with mirror walls, ballet bars and professional floors where you can practice your moves and choreographies in style.”

And then there would be this:

A shooting range – this is where you are after all ‘MURICA LAND OF THE FREE. And that is why the shooting range also has a spacious safe, …

…where there is room for a real arsenal of shooting equipment.

So much for the man cave. In the meantime, for the lady of the house (oooh yes, gender stereotypes are capitalized here) we have this little something:

These are the beautifully decorated reception and lounge areas of the…

… Day spa!

There is a massage room here…

… a yoga room, …

…a cold water pool…

…and an indoor hot tub. And a shower in the back. Yes, that’s a shower – look how big it is! With aquarium!

Here you can have a drink.

Here… I have no idea. Something wellness or beauty related, just.

Here is the sauna…

… and here probably the chillout area to relax after an exhausting day of wellness.

Anyway, here’s the main selling point:

An electric kart track!

Including six go-karts.

And yes, the track is illuminated at night.

Well, dear lottery winner, you still get something for your money! And then we haven’t even mentioned many things properly: there is a vegetable garden with greenhouse, garages, etc “batting cage”to practice your baseball swings and much more.

Oh yeah: Gilbert – which is southwest of downtown Phoenix. I checked: pretty much everything is half an hour away. It’s half an hour to downtown Phoenix, the South Mountain Viewpoint and chic Old Town Scottsdale. Tempe and Mesa, where the colleges and universities are, are a lot closer. And there are several nice shopping and restaurant options in the immediate area (you can eat well in Phoenix anyway).

So good luck with the lottery!
(Here let’s get to the sales announcement.)

And then you invite me for a ride Horseshoes one, okay?
