The house might not be in existence (anymore), but the legacy still lives on

The "Building" part:


Top Gear presenter, James May, built a new house in Surrey made entirely out of
Lego bricks. This two-story Lego palace, which resides in the middle of a vineyard,
has a working bathroom, and is covered inside and out with over 816 million Legos.



(Hm. So is it just over 3 million bricks, or does it actually near the astronomical figure
of near a billion LEGO bricks, in order to construct a house made solely of the stuff?)

(^^ if you click but only one of my [bracketed] source/article/website links today, make it the 'DailyMail' one. Fine read, it is.)
