Say hello to the grandest house on the block. The Victorian Mansion by Victorian Bricks has reached the full 10,000 supporters on LEGO® Ideas and now sits in review. This Queen Anne-style beauty packs 4,997 pieces into a home so detailed it makes every other house in your city layout look a little underdressed (their words, and honestly, we agree).

Stand it on a shelf and it measures a whopping 26.1 inches wide and 16.3 inches tall. Peek inside and you get two and a half fully enclosed floors bursting with life. The ground floor holds a kitchen, dining room, living room, a grand main staircase, a secret coat closet tucked underneath, and a solarium overflowing with plants. Climb to the first floor for three bedrooms, a bathroom, and gorgeous details like crystal doorknobs and stained glass transom windows above every door.

The clever bits keep coming. A rounded octagonal tower, a wrap-around porch, multiple gables, and an asymmetrical facade all nail the historic Victorian look. Four removable sections lift away so you can reach the tower room, attic, and every floor below. Have you ever wanted a LEGO® house you can actually play inside? This one delivers, right down to a snail who may or may not be a chef.

Nine minifigures move in with the property, including the two owners, a housekeeper, a parlor maid, a chef, a butler, a mysterious Statue Lady, two tea guests, and a friendly dachshund named Ralph. Victorian Bricks drew on real homes for the design, including the Corbin-Norton House in Martha's Vineyard and the Ferris Mansion in Wyoming. This marks the latest in a growing lineup of Victorian builds, and the designer calls it a personal favorite.

With the review phase underway, LEGO® decides next whether the Victorian Mansion earns a spot on shelves everywhere. Fancy a haunted house, a holiday village centerpiece, or simply the fanciest home in town? Keep your fingers crossed and your baseplate clear.
