If you ever thought your house was too big to clean or live in, imagine living in this monster of a residence!
This is the The Sultan of Brunei's palace called Istana Nurul Iman.It has a whooping 1,788 rooms, 257 bathrooms, 5 swimming pools, stable for 200 ponies, garage for 110 cars, banquet hall for 4,000 guests and a mosque for 1,500 people!
The total area of the building works out to be 2,152,782 square feet . Personally that's a little bit too big for me!!Why anyone would want and could do with all that space is beyond me.
The palace was built in 1984 and cost $1.4 billion dollars.
As well as the rooms and amenities it also has 44 stairwells, 18 elevators and wait for it ... a home to car collection point!Can you imagine the utility bills and upkeep cost to run this!? I'm guessing this doesn't even faze the Sultan!
How about you? Could you live in a place like this?

I wouldn't want to keep it clean, but I could definitely get used to living in it!! LOL
wow what a home, sure have tough time to clean up.
I wouldn't want to clean it but I guess when you can afford such a huge house you can afford cleaning people.
No way! I'm happy in my comfy little home.
OH!It is very nice there...
Happy WW!
oh! thats too big for me...in fact i dint like it ;) (these grapes again looks sour to me)lol ;)
By then you will afford to hire cleaners to do the job. Money ill not be issue then.
I'd stay in, like, two rooms—just like we do in our own house. (Which is considerably smaller—LOL!!!)
Hopping over from Wordless Wednesday!
Actually, no, I would not want to live in a place like that no matter how much money was in the bank. I prefer small and cozy. Big houses are too big for me and I don't do two stories. Stairs and me do not get along. They see me coming and say...let's break her leg. So, small is better...less to clean, less to decorate...and I can hear everything that is going on in the whole house.
☼ Happy Wednesday ☼
I was going to leave a comment about the cleaning of it as well, seems that's a very common thought!
I couldn't live there, I don't think I'd feel very cosy in there!
I sure hope he has a really big family. Wow that is huge! Thanks for sharing....
too big for me!
It would probably be a little easier to live in for me than the world's smallest house!
Wow, that's huuuuuuuuuuuuge!
I would soooo get lost in there!

Yea, cleaning it would be crazy!
Thats not a house, its a city! Thats crazy!
Whoa! I'd hate to clean it!
wow....what a big house :D i think too big for me, hubby and Jason live there..LOL
That is BIG! Wow, I wonder how many people actually live in it? Of course being one of the richest countries in the world, the Sultan would definitely have to live up to the title. This is as grandiose as it gets :)
I thiiiiiiiink I could deal with that!
Wow, I think my family would love to live here, everyone with their own room and bathroom. Do you think I could get them to have family dinners together? I have 4 kids and a mother-in-law.

Wow! That’s really surprising. I can’t even imagine living with that place. It was really awesome.
I would love a holiday there, but can't imagine having to upkeep such a home.
Good exercise enough just walking around the house though.
:)
OMG!!!!
I think I'd get lost in it!
Well, you would never have to leave the house to go jogging, and its safer if you want to go for a midnight walk?
Anon,
That is true lol. Wouldnt it be great to live that lifestyle!!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting
