We all remember that beer advert where a woman shows off her new walk in closet to her friends and they all scream, followed by a man showing off his beer fridge which causes his friends to scream even louder? This is a whole new level of huge…
It is probably bigger than your first two homes combined, with 3 stories and a floating staircase. By the way, the R5million is just for the structure… It includes NOTHING inside the closet.
At 3,000 square feet, [Theresa Roemer’s] female version of the already famous “man-cave” is twice the size – if not larger – of many family homes. In the normal universe the closet is much more akin to Aladdin’s Cave of Wonder than a foul-smelling basement man cave filled with video games and questionable publications.“The third floor houses all my furs and big hats, you come down the spiral staircase to the second floor which is where I get my hair and makeup done, it also houses all the shoes from Louis Vuitton and Gucci, to my tennis and workout gear,” Roemer revealed. “Then you come down a floating staircase, which is just magical, and the first floor is where you pick out your jewelry and bags,” the Woodlands entrepreneur concluded.
The second floor is complete with a champagne bar and a hair and make-up salon.
This is the ideal place to throw a party – weird as it is to be inviting strangers into your closet for a fundraiser. The down side of publicising your immensely decked out designer closet is that you are prone to movie-like heists.
Just last week, a pro thief broke into the closet using a glass cutter (WHAT!) to get into the ground floor bathroom.
Theresa is not worried about the stolen artefacts to the value of as much as R10 million, but she does feel like her privacy has been violated.
Sure.. it is great when you invite people to party in your closet, but uninvited guests are never a nice surprise in your boudoir.
