Yeah I have thought about buying one of the cheap warehouses off of front street and doing that..
Have a huge 25foot tall barb wire fence all the way around, reinforced with concrete pillars so you can not drive though it.. Big metal gate, remote activated.. Then you take off most of the roof and convert it to sliding glass to let the light in.. Can close most of it for bad weather or winter time.. In-ground pool also in there..
Build the two story house inside of the warehouse, paint the interior walls of the warehouse with some theme.. Can park you vehicles in side the warehouse.. Have a astroturf lawn on the inside..
Would be sweet and probably somewhat cheap to do..
Put a miniature wind turbine on top of the warehouse to power the complex.. I guess you could also acquire more land around it for gardening..
