166 Car Garage and House For Sale
This came across my desk this morning and thought that I'd share it here.
Perhaps YOU can now have all of your Pontiacs in one location! ;D ”166 Car Garage and House For Sale Description: Pocket Listing not on MLS anymore. INCREDIBLE RANCH AND RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY LOCATED IN GAINESVILLE,GA NEAR MAJOR HIGHWAYS AND AIRPORTS.435 ACRES OF ROLLING LAND WITH RIVERS, LAKE AND WATERFALLS. PROPERTY IS FENCED AND CROSS FENCED WITH INTERIOR ROADS AND COVERED BRIDGE TO ALL PARTS OF THE PROPERTY. UNBELIEVABLE HOME SETTING!!! SURROUNDED BY A RIVER AND WATERFALLS. A 360 DEGREE VERANDA OFFERS OUTDOOR LIVINGS AT IT'S FINEST. THE ORIGINAL TANNERS MILL SHOP IS ALSO ON THE GROUNDS. THE RANCH MAY BE SUBDIVIDED UNDER THE PROPER CIRCUMSTANCES. ALL BUYERS MUST BE PRE APPROVED PRIOR TO A SHOWING. Some collections are displayed behind glass, some are perched on shelves and others, like the famed Milton Robson car collection, is displayed in a massive, 40,000-square-foot climate-controlled garage that Robson designed himself, said agent Leighann Russell of Funari Realty. And if the sight of 1950s classic and muscle-style cars aren’t enough nostalgia, the collection’s setting certainly will. Robson’s garage features a 1950′s-style Chevrolet and Pontiac dealership facade as well as a vintage setting of a Mobil gas station. There’s also a barber shop and poodle skirt-worthy soda shop, plus a movie theater with faux ticket booth and theater marquee. And if an ice cream soda float isn’t your style, Robson also has a full,1900s-style San Francisco saloon installed in the loft above the garage. In the front of the barn, a front office displays Audie Murphy‘s saddle. While the garage itself is impressive, Robson’s car collection is even more so. A self-made millionaire, Robson started Milton’s Institutional Foods, Inc., out of high school and began collecting and restoring vehicles at age 25. In 1995, he sold his company to Performance Food Group, and devoted himself full-time to his 55-car collection, which houses some of the “rarest and best” muscle cars. After 55 years in Gainesville, GA, Milton is selling his 13,00-sq ft home and is moving to Florida. He has auctioned some of his prime vehicles, including a 1960 Chrysler 300 that went for over $400,000 in the first hour of the auction. Located on 435 acres, Robson’s home is listed for $22 million on the Gainesville real estate market. Built in 1988, the 4-bedroom, 5.5-bath home is a European-style design with a stone exterior. Hardwood floors are featured throughout, a gourmet “European” kitchen. The property is still a working horse ranch, explained Russell, and there are barns and outbuildings in addition to Robson’s garage. http://carproperty.com/images/1204_2...81148cDGQy.jpg http://carproperty.com/images/1204_2...111110l8G1.jpg http://carproperty.com/images/1204_2...11111M2XZ8.jpg http://carproperty.com/images/1204_2...31113jzicH.jpg http://carproperty.com/images/1204_2...61156mfzds.jpg http://carproperty.com/images/1204_2...61136fmrIm.jpg Location: 3509 Tanner Mill Circle, Gainsville, GA 30507 Call 877-781-5128 regarding Ad id: 73481204” |

Someone give me the winning Power Ball numbers and I'll buy it. I'll even share what's left of the winnings with the donor. And if there's any of the collection that goes with the place, I'll share that too. You can even leave them in the museum for free. :D

166 car garage
Reminds me of my smaller vacation place in the Rockies. yeah, sure. A number of this forums members have probably seen this place in person, as I have. It's every bit as impressive as the photos indicate. I always check out the real estate ads at the back of Hemmings every month. There are usually several places that rival this one listed, and I marvel at the lifestyles some are able to maintain. Only in America.

The purchase price is just the beginning.
The upkeep must take 10-12 people to take care of everything. My ego will never be that big. Give it to me, and I will donate 100% to good causes, and not take the tax break..:D |
Google maps has a interesting aerial view. http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&su...ed=0CCEQ8gEwAA

I'm looking for something with a little less closet space.

Anyone know how Robson amassed his fortune?
