This is Wendy's house in Charleston. Actually she wanted someplace with a little more room but there was nothing on the market.

In fact, this is the Calhoun mansion, built in 1876. I am making a major correction to this entry; unlike the original comment, it was not the home of the prominent South Carolina politician John Calhoun; he died in 1850.
Nonetheless, it's quite impressive; 24 thousand square feet (not hundred, thousand!), 35 rooms, all with fireplaces and 14 foot high ceilings. Wouldn't want to clean it!
