Batman's Office and Secret Bathrooms—These Real-Estate Agents Have Seen It All
I recently listed Castle Bristlecone, a 23,500-square-foot property in Gibsonia, Pa., about a half-hour north of Pittsburgh, which sold in June for $3.8 million. It was definitely the most unusual home I've ever listed or shown.
There was a replica of Batman's office, from the television show, not the movies. On the desk was the iconic red bat phone and a bust of Shakespeare. When you tilted Shakespeare's head back, a bookcase slid open, and two poles appeared. There were poles for both Batman and Robin, and if you slid down them, you reached the Batcave below, which was actually the basement of the house.
