English Gothic House

69 year old Peter Riches from Sussex, England, started this English Gothic House in 1994. After fifteen years, this miniature Victorian-style mansion is complete. Riches owns a construction company and after a hard day's work on real size homes, he would get into the knits and grits with this ever-so-detailed mini-home.

Now sold for $82,000, the house belongs to a Canadian dollhouse enthusiast. It is a 10-bedroom house with 23 rooms. There’s a servants quarter, game room, a grand piano, pool table with the balls made of necklace beads. Little details like the chandeliers and a library room with 1,000 separately bound books containing pages of newspapers make this dollhouse one of the most expensive dollhouses in the world.
