The interior isn't finished - I'm sure a lot of "rooms" are large empty areas that should, by some building standards laws, be separated by supporting walls

Because it's a shell, you get to complete construction on the inside and figure out how many rooms you can fit in!

Goddamn, the brick and relative lack of windows makes this place look miserable as poo poo. Also the overall architecture just blows, what a completely uninspired house. If you're gonna build something ridiculous and huge, have some imagination, don't build a giant box ffs.
