The four-bedroom, five-bedroom home has a great deal of space with 6,467 square feet and a gaggle of amenities suitable for an entertainer’s lifestyle including a full bar and an indoor pool. The only thing is, there’s one part of the house the listing on Zillow.com fails to mention….

“For that price sign me up,” one person said. “I could use the cells as a giant dog crate when people come over so my Saint Bernard doesn’t knock them down.”
