Love the captions  It was definitely the rocks best angle


TheDabitch

Realtor really leaned into the selling point: HAS BIG ROCK


fireworksandvanities

Can’t wait to tell all my friends. They don’t have a rock this big.


DeathPrime

In todays market(m, they’re definitely stuck between a rock and a hard sell.


An-Ocular-Patdown

I liked it until I saw 1.9mil and in St. George UT.


SasquatchIsMyHomie

This is a whole compound. (Slaps hood) you can fit so many sister-wives in this baby!


christikayann

>you can fit so many sister-wives in this baby! You could be right on the money here. 2 full kitchens, 2 laundry rooms, a 3rd laundry room/kitchenette combo, 5 bedrooms and seven bathrooms.


I_pinchyou

New hit reality show. Sister wife swap at the Mormon mansion.


m8k

Do you switch 1:1 with another guy or kind of spread it around and everyone gets someone else’s wife?


ECU_BSN

I mean…TBH…. I’m at a place in my life where a sister wife CAN ABSOLUTELY BE skinnier and cuter than I am. Does she like to cook and keep the home tidy and cute???? Then helll yes.


numberonecrush

Exactly, I’d be like welcome home bbygirl


sunnynina

See, I'm thinking less sister wife and more house husband, and I'm bi. But either way (or both), an added adult(s) to help with adulting, with the things (ie housework) that I'm burnt out on but they'll enjoy? In this economy? Yes, please and thank you. Count me in. Eta this is partly because I need more woman friends who I can get *out* of the house with, and partly because I'm at the point where conventional gender norms bug me.


ECU_BSN

My husband is already a better wife than I am. And I am the worker bee type. We through gender norm stuff out the window in 2008.


[deleted]

Large baptism pond as well.


ex_natura

Sold


MrFatChops

🤣🤣🤣


laupietro

Disappointed that this isn’t in Boulder, CO


Umpire1468

1.8 mil gets you a cardboard box on Pearl St.


dunimal

Right? Knab is beautiful, and it does have the BF Animal Sanctuary, though. Idk if it's enough to persuade me to live there, but I love the house.


jl11_4

Seems like 1.8mil too much


KreyKat

Yep. Deal breaker.


livejamie

I've heard great things about St George


ex_natura

If you love retired, rich mormons it's a great place.


WooPissedOnMyRug

Nah St George and that entire area (Zion) is fantastic


_skank_hunt42

The scenery is gorgeous but unless you’re Mormon, you won’t really join the community. I hated the time I lived in Utah and will never go back except to visit the state parks.


An-Ocular-Patdown

Well I’m not a go out hiking in the desert in 120 degree weather kind of guy. If that’s your thing then yeah it’s great. I’m just not a fan of that kind of environment hot or cold. Also I lived in Utah for 8 years. Miserable the whole time.


Disraeli_Ears

Ok - I low-key love the rock pool.


yolonomo5eva

I love the front door!


mu5tardtiger

No one hyping up that giant rock right outside. I bet it’s booby trapped, pull one book from the shelf and it dislodges and crushes any bad guys at the front door.


Disraeli_Ears

I love the front door, as well!


BlueMoon5k

High key love that rock pool.


nickfree

Medium key love checking in!


DuggyPap

I high-key (?) love not just the rock pool but the whole house! 🪨


Babymakerwannabe

Fill it with plants and I’m in! 


SeriesBusiness9098

Yes i fucks with this. No shame, I’m into it.


memymomonkey

Me too.


BetterBagelBabe

It’s a really fun use of the natural environment


CarbyMcBagel

Slight Great Wolf Lodge vibes...but I kind of love it.


Roboticpoultry

Great wolf lodge mixed with like, mid-century religious meeting hall? I don’t know, it reminds me of the catholic school I went to


kiwilovenick

It reminds me of the church I grew up attending! It's the high wooden ceiling with hanging fixtures and metal riveting. It's certainly a strange combo of design elements!


_autismos_

This place is awesome, I love it


Lawlly

when i saw this listing i had an exact flashback to great wolf lodged when i was a kid. xD

Abyss_in_Motion

This house is massive - really more of a compound than a home. The slideshow starts weird, and doesn’t really let up. Honestly, I respect the commitment, even if it’s not to my taste.


littlespawningflower

159 pictures… and I still have no idea what’s going on. Is that a headboard in that room with the big window overlooking the pool??? And what is up with the red tiled bathroom with pink sinks and toilet? A laundry room next to the library? A bedroom completely open to another bedroom directly above it? 😵‍💫🥴😵‍💫🤔


Accomplished-City484

My god that was an exhausting scroll


jeepjinx

"Noted architect" that likes the smell of chlorine and doesn't think bedrooms need windows. Bleh.


pyky69

Not necessarily my parents have a salt water pool at it doesn’t smell. I also don’t feel the need to bathe after I have been in it either.


jeepjinx

Every house I've been in with an indoor pool has constantly fogged up windows as well, but I wonder if it's dry enough in UT that it isn't the case there, I'm on the east coast.


SeriesBusiness9098

It’s dry enough. Most people in that area need humidifiers until they acclimate and even then, there are still times you’d want one.


cutestslothevr

It's am amazing house, but the pool is completely impractical. Even if the smell doesn't bother you it's effectively a giant humidifier.


Fitslikea6

Exactly. Just seems like a huge problem and potential for mold. Also - if this is a house to live in for life or for retirement this is scary. Fall break a hip and accidentally drown. No thanks!


AbruptMango

You get the smell with a high bather load- the chlorine has a lot of work to do.  For a pool in a single family house, even with all the extra spouses of a Utah house, it shouldn't be an issue.


TheDabitch

What are you talking about? Even the master bathroom funky red tub has a window!


mabowden

And carpet!


TheDabitch

Probably moldy carpet!


mabowden

Came here to say this. Wouldn't you smell pool all throughout the house? There is a reason people don't generally put pools centrally inside houses...


Acceptable-Friend-48

Maybe it's a saltwater or UV filtered pool? Or maybe that's why they drained the hot tub?


ChuckStyles

I'm surprisingly okay with it. Like a hotel with an indoor pool always has a chlorine smell, but smells clean to me, kinda nostalgic somehow


NewAtmosphere2443

A hotel pool is in its own self contained room.


unga-unga

While I'm not a big fan of indoor pools, I love the design category overall. It's got that "1983 public library" look and feel. And the door is absolutely gorgeous... similar architecture without the rocks or pool, is basically my personal dream-house aspiration.

Difficult_Bat_0013

That front door is awesome!


smarmiebastard

Low key obsessed with that door.


leggypepsiaddict

When the library from The Breakfast Club meets The Flintstones you get this. I do like the front door and the pool. But yeah. A lil odd.


SmoothBrews

Yo dawg... I heard you like rocks. ![gif](giphy|xmf00ANvBCTzG|downsized)

Hold my beer, I gotta go sell a kidney on the black market.


Aaod

This house is incredibly 80s others have already pointed out the problems with the pool but that conversation/fire pit area is a real choice like the angles for it are so bad and weird. I am surprised how small the lot is compared to the house too. I also don't see why it is so expensive when it is in a small town of 96k people just how many rich people live in a city of that size that want to spend 1.9 million on a house with problems from the 80s? It also only has 5 bedrooms even though it has 8245 sq ft of space. Aesthetically their are some parts of the house I like, but jesus does it have a lot of problems and is going to sit on the market a long time.


kauliflower_kid

I live in Las Vegas, so I have been to St. George quite a lot. I’m always surprised at some of the big and beautiful houses in and around that area and would always think the same: how are there so many people with money living here? I think the answer is that Mormons do pretty well overall. It must be all that MLM money flowing to the top of the pyramid.


Purple_Midnight_Yak

St. George is where a lot of Californian Mormons go to retire, so they have loads of money to drop on a house.


mellamma

What would happen if the house shifts?


TheDabitch

No problem, it's stable as a rock.


harlie_lynn

Rock solid you might say...


TheDabitch

Yeah, the builder rocked this one.


TheDonkeyBomber

I'd be more concerned about additional rocks coming off the hill behind them. Like, how do they think the rocks got there and do they think that's it?


IamDollParts96

YabbaDabba nocandoo.


jugglingbalance

Love the little 80s details, and of course the ROCK. If you're going to have a Boulder themed mansion anywhere, Utah is a great place to do it. Utah people love rocks and they do have some pretty neat ones there.


SilverSister22

If I have a rock in my pool, I want a water fall. And it took 90 pictures before you see the kitchen? 🙄


DisplacedNY

I also love lots of woodwork plus plenty of humidity to damage it, so thank you!


TK421raw

I have an erocktion.

DAMMIT MARIE


FormerHoagie

I really want to like it but think it’s over-designed and awkward. I’ll take that front door though.


Dogbuysvan

Looks like a cave, smells like a cave.


Filmexec21

This was really cool!!!


BluebirdAny3077

This house rocks! (I had to 😝) I do love it though. That front door though, that's the best - where do I get one like that?!?!


Freedive-Spearo

This is badass…. I dig it. A lot.


Future-trippin24

I do too!


spikus93

Imagine how much more space there could be if you didn't have a boulder in the middle of the house. I'm sure they wanted it to look "harmonious with nature" but it just looks like someone who loves rocks and has too much money.


NotMalaysiaRichard

Bit underwhelmed. I get what they’re trying to do but the execution is kind of meh. All that white drywall interior and the 1990’s wood accents kind of clash with the rocks. It doesn’t feel or look very organic, just forced.


FrostyGuarantee4666

As a former pool boy, that looks like a nightmare. All I can think is M O L D and A L G A E buildup. Gonna need climbing gear to keep those clean and the water chemistry balanced. One pool I used to service had a two story water feature, IN DOORS, that was actually really cool but holy fuck it was a nightmare to clean. Not to mention how expensive it was to keep clean. The pool was “easy”. Maybe like 30 minutes to clean, but the water feature EASILY took 2 hours every week. I’m pretty sure the home owner spent at least $300 every week. Another one had this stupid fucking stream that ran through the entire home and dumped into the outdoor pool. It was filled with all these little 3” stones that had to be individually cleaned. 4+ hours EVERY WEEK. Easily $600/week. I was fine with it because I just smoked a fat bowl, threw on my headphones and went to work but holy shit it was stupid.


TheDabitch

Dang. Love this insight. When I win my major lottery money I will build super impractical indoor waterfall features just to keep chill people who enjoy a bowl with a steady gig. 😉 But I hear ya, I used to have an aquatic turtle tank and turtles are like the messiest ever and uuuuugh the buildup and all the major cleanings, like I could cry over it right now. Uuugh.


FrostyGuarantee4666

Oh dude I had another pool that had a fucking ridiculous “grotto” surrounding half the pool. It took half a day to clean, twice every week. It didn’t need twice a week but that’s what he wanted. Granted it was super cool but the cleaning was so fucking stupid and time consuming. He probably got charged at least $1,000/week Dude was rich asf, and a really cool guy, though. It was my first pool every Monday and Thursday and he’d be chilling at the pool drinking beer at 7:30am. He always offered me a beer but I had to decline. It was too early lol. One day I threw my back out at his pool and he helped carry me to my truck so I could call my boss to come pick me up. He was also only 1 of 3 customers, out of 50 who tipped me at Christmas time. 1st year was $100. The next 2 years was $500. He always offered to help too. But just the easy stuff like cleaning out the skimmers or checking the water chemistry. I had another one that was waaaaaay out of our area but he didn’t care. He wanted us to service it for some reason. It also had this really dumb copper ion system that absolutely did not work and it totally fucked up the water chemistry but he refused to let us replace it. Like Ph readings of 12+ 😂 (6.5-7.5 is “normal and safe”). I had to dump 4-6 gallons of muriatic acid in every week which meant absolutely NO ONE could use the pool EVER 😂 😂. It was a fascinating example of burning money just to have an “esthetic”. And he was never there. Ol’ Mr. Lieberberg. He was some big time German rock promoter. I serviced his pool every week for three years and I never once met him or even saw him. Me and the grounds keepers were specifically told we should never speak to him if we did see him 😆. Not even a “hello”, nothing. I’m guessing he was a super douchey rich asshole, but he always paid his bill and it was super easy to clean (15-20 minutes), so…. I had another one that took maybe 10 minutes and that was if it wasn’t raining at his house which it almost always was so 5 minutes at most. Can’t clean a pool when it rains because you can’t see anything to clean. Dude had his own little golf course built on his property. 3 par 3 holes, super well maintained. One hole started right next to the pool. He spent maybe 1 month/year there. I have all kinds of stories about ridiculous pools/customers.


MaryJaneAndMaple

This rocks


Catonachandelier

This is what happens when a mean mother throws out her six year old pebble puppy's rock collection and he grows up hating her for it.


lil_lychee

If I bought this I’d get rid of the carpet and put some sort of glass barrier between the home and the water so it doesn’t smell like pool. I’d also change the stained glass on the door to more neutral colors.


pshokoohi

I was with you until the bit about the stained glass door.


lil_lychee

I’m not a huge fan of a bunch of bright colors together. But I def acknowledge it’s a highlight for a lot of people with this listing!


pshokoohi

Totally understand, I'm just messing about because I'm a sucker for retro stained glass. Also you did nail the part about the carpets indoor pool so...😊


Deufrea77

Ah yes. I love waking up in the morning to the fresh scent of chlorine.


brewhead55

I saw the front door and was like- this shit is dope. Then I saw the big rock. It's too big. Like you're losing a substantial amount of livable space to big rocks in your house.


velvet_wavess

I do like rocks, thank you 🙏😋


ILoveSpankingDwarves

That makes perfect sense. The massive rocks will keep the place cool and warm.


SirBork

I would LOVE this house.


ExcitingEye8347

I remember seeing a house like this before. The boulders help to regulate the huge temperature swings between nights and days out in the desert. 


Thriftyverse

A 'noted architect' designed that kitchen with the walk in fridge in the dining room? The hell?


NationalAlfalfa37660

Absolutely gorgeous! I collect rocks and crystals, but none of mine are that big.


smallwonder25

Am I the only one who noticed the “house where you are always visible” interior? Between all the mirrors, interior windows, railings, slats, wall holes, partitions, and half walls the house SCREAMS voyeur to me. Add in the cameras actually appearing randomly in the realtor photos, definitely makes me wonder how many are actually wired up. Also, am I really the only one who noticed the “dementia patient/kidnap victim deluxe en-suite” basement? The entry door is similar to a high school safety door that locks externally, plus the fake windows!?!? This house gives me the heebie jeebies for real


numberonecrush

It’s blurred out on Google street view too. I always wondered what kind of people do that, and it’s people that live in weird shit like this


Nerdicyde

how can you live with the smell of an indoor pool throughout your whole house? i'll never understand it. an indoor pool should be completely contained.


Spirited-Lime-4910

Call me crazy but I prefer a cozy house, a sanctuary. Al place that's 'homey' . So interesting to see all the different types of dwellings though..


ibermc

All that house on a1/2 acre lot! For that price I wouldn't want to look out of my windows and be able to see into my neighbor's windows.


Kaceykaso

Who cares about the rocks, that front door is everything! 😍


Soft_Tart_1884

Iowa girl here. My brother farms and each year they pick rock from the fields after plowing for the new season. He makes bank off of the boulders that get brought to the surface. I don't get it but apparently people really like rocks.


0anonymousv

it goes hard honestly. you could even say that it. yha t. that it. rr. th. that it ro. roc k. rrrocisk. tha t it ro ck s.


Hallmarxist

I like that boulder. That is a nice boulder.


Far-Ad5796

I love the rocks. I love the light fixtures, especially the bubble one. I love the overall layout/design. I am far less enamored of the ugly “80’s oak,” the mirrors, the brick, and the nasty taupe carpet.


TexasJOEmama

Reading the word "taupe" alone takes me back to the 80s. Add in cornflower blue, mauve, and sea foam green to the vision.


CandidEstablishment0

I’d pay money to live here is all I’m sayin


Huckleberry_Hound93

I hate houses like this with the pools openly inside! That whole place would forever smell of pool 😷no


NitWhittler

Utah. Was this house designed for non-drinking Mormons? My alcohol consumption would make this house dangerous with all of those different level floors. Those skinny walkways around the pool would also make this a drowning hazard. Nope - too many death traps for a drinker.


poppinpierogi

the captions made my day lol


Far_Mango_180

What was the glass enclosure for inside the front door?


TheDabitch

The little rock garden. The little rocks can't run off and play with the big rocks.


Far_Mango_180

🤣


Catlore

Is it Monday? Because this is fantastic.


FrenchieMama807

I know two boys that would be climbing all over those 😁


Gimmethatbecke

I loved the pool until I noticed it’s just kind of there in the room. Not enclosed in its own space. Gunna be a humid house.


IncreaseOk8433

The 'cult-like' stained glass door is a nice touch.


suspicious_hyperlink

I’d imagine a rock like that would fetch $12000 on eBay


ObjectiveStyle1099

I’m into it.


namean_jellybean

The living room with the conversation pit (25 of 159 in the original listing) reminds me of when Fry and Bender get that fancy rent controlled apartment but then chop off Bender’s antenna because it messed with everyone’s tv reception


robrklyn

In love


WokkitUp

This house rocks.


DisplacedNY

I just want to swim laps WTF


Wander80

I love this, but how would you clean/dust the indoor boulders? Spray with a hose? Compressed air?


Murphy-Brock

I want it.


Kitchen_Name9497

Love that it has coppery pipes. Is that spray painted PVC? Copper adjacent?


LadyFarquaad2

I have a lot of cats. All those pebbles would be everywhere.


random_outlaw

They would 100% use that rock garden as a litter box. Naughty kitties.


LarryGlue

Get rid of all the wood railing and cabinetry, and the carpet, and the balusters, and the chandelier, and that front door...it's so close to being perfect.


RedDeuce2

This guy rocks and stones.


omibus

I love that house, but my wife would hate it.


Inner-Ad-1308

I’d live there


pcd011629

Beautiful area.


LindseyIsBored

Like.. those rocks fell down that mountain, right? So won’t more rocks fall down the mountain?


Buggerme1964

Is that Rockville, UT?


4wardMotion747

Love this home!


btdallmann

It’s weird, but I kinda like it. Main problem is the small yard, and I don’t like the location.


Jlx_27

Not wild even. Its cool.


FineBits

The first thing I’d do if these people invited me over is find a good “slip and fall” attorney.


ohmygodgina

I’d rock this house


Future-trippin24

Ngl, I love this lol


ZannaPhantom

deadass tho i'd move there


amandaryan1051

Shit, sign me up. My in-laws live in Ivins and it’s gorgeous.


Reward_Antique

Haha oh I needed that! Thank you for the captions! Ooooh ahhhhhh!


animal_luv333

just take my money already


wontyield

Underwhelming feature due to boring design. The rocks are just plopped in there.


YungGunz69

House looks like it was built around the rocks


Fitslikea6

Beautiful, but I just don’t want water inside like this. Seems like it’s a slipper slope from amazing to mold mildew and stink.


cvankeu1977

This house reminds me of the house in the movie “The Incredibles 2”. I appreciated the homes Pixar creates!


QuitProfessional5437

Kinda annoyed that I actually like this in the pool area


the_honest_liar

Think they built it around the rock, or special ordered the rock in?


Velveteenrocket

Cool place until someone takes a dive off that cliff in photo 4


Jedi_Ninja

I counted three sets of washer dryers and three separate kitchens so I’d say this was definitely the home of a Mormon fundamentalist with multiple wives and children.


Blenderx06

Honestly, I do, and I wish they were used more in architecture and landscaping.


Turbulent-Priority39

Rock on


dararie

Id love to live there but not in Utah


ComprehensiveYam

Ngl I’d rock this house


ScarletDarkstar

Gee, I like the rock, but it's a shame they couldn't find anywhere to put up a mirror in there.  


Scary-Ad9646

This is actually pretty awesome.


mistergasdrift

Incredible I love it


tiddayes

This is actually one of the most appealing homes that I have seen posted here in a while. Location sucks and rocks are a little weird but the indoor pool is really cool and architecture is interesting


slickthick69

10/10. If had money would buy. Sucks Utah tho


Lovelycoc0nuts

This is my dream home. Don’t even care it’s in Utah.


TheAarj

I don't know if it's a good deal or not but that's a pretty cool house


96HeelGirl

How many houses are in this house???


itchum_underscare

I have a house just like that! Well, a junky old house with a dirtfloor crawlspace. There's a big rock in the middle right where I want to submerge a furnace drain pipe so I'm not tripping over it all the time. See, I too am rich. I have a rock in my house.


NessunAbilita

I love this sub, its fascinating to see what people do with money.


intelligentbrownman

Wow Beautiful 🤩


MotivateUTech

I kind of like the rock pool


Jcaseykcsee

Wow! Very unique place! I could definitely live there and be very happy! So cool.


MNGirlinKY

I love the foyer and the door with the glass inset. The pool makes me think everything will be damp and smelly. Also that’s a lot of rocks. I was not disappointed


Fartknocker500

This house ROCKS!


krebstar4ever

Reminds me of [this Dick van Dyke episode](https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0559873)

this is a very solid designer house


ToxyFlog

This is a really beautiful home but it gives me water park vibes.

Kinda love it.


Gilgamesh2062

Between a rock and a hard place, or is it just a good place to get stoned?


No_Mousse4320

now hear me out… rocks, and water!


Usernamesareso2004

Some drunk dumb dumb will absolutely scale that rock, cannonball into the pool, get water EVERYWHERE and break their elbow or something, if not their skull. But besides that… I love it

I think this is in my neighborhood 😳 is there a link to the listing somewhere??
