A replica of the White House was built in Atlanta as a private home!Fred Milani is an Iranian-American home developer who built himself a scaled down version of the White House. It isn’t just the outside that looks like the White House, either. The interior is built to match, as well. In Milani’s oval office, he has an American and an Iranian flag. The home sits in North Druid Hills, a few miles northeast of downtown Atlanta, Georgia. He put the home for sale at $9.88 million. He had to put it up for sale after the economy turned south. The 16,500 foot home attracts a lot of attention from tourists, but his neighbors are none too pleased with the house. The house has a mixture of Iranian and American décor, as well as Christian religious items. Milani converted from Islam to Christianity and is now devout. His house reflects it in that he has a sanctuary within his White House and frequents it.
