Geeze....$2 Million HERE would get you maybe an acre or two, maybe a "view", and a 3 or 4 bedroom house, not mansion.

Bag End is cool. Wish I owned that piece of property.

Saw this on TORM--glad you posted it. Wonder what other sets from LOTR he's got, besides that wonderful Bag End interior?

The "castle" is a bit disappointing. It is Victorian mansion-y, rather than stone castle-y.

Considering his fortune, a rather modest sum for his dream home.

How wonderful. I enjoy seeing the "good guys" reap the benefits of their good work. I hope he has much happiness there & can find many other worthwhile projects to do.

To quote Max Bialystock in The Producers: "If you've got it baby, flaunt it!" Good for Jackson!

Hhmmmmmmm. Wonder if he needs an estate manager?
Heck, I'd even sign on as head groundskeeper if he'd let me live in Bags End.

The mansion has two towers

I'm surprised you guys didn't catch the above detail. Symbolism anyone? ;-)
