* Mining Mansion * 

This large Spanish-style house looked rather out of place in this setting. Not far from downtown Bisbee, the Walter Douglas House, (also known as the Loma Linda Lodge) is located at the base of this man-made hill, consisting of large deposits of copper ore. Not what I would consider the most desirable scenery for my back yard. 

The mansion was built in 1907. It sits on 2 acres, has 42 rooms, including a five room master suite, twelve bedrooms, ten bathrooms, a third floor billiards room, and a two bedroom one bathroom guest apartment with full kitchen and living room off the main floor with its own private entrance and a swimming pool.

A quick search on the internet revealed that the house is listed for a simple sale at $2,000,000. 
Of course I think that's a steal with that incredible back-yard view.
