The home was built by Richard Berry, a former race car driver and grandson to Loren M. Berry - otherwise known as Mr. Yellow Pages: the inventor of the business telephone directory.

Richard Berry originally purchased the property in the late-1990's for under $1 million, the Wall Street Journal reported, and the home is now being sold by LIV Sotheby's International Realty.

The mansion, nicknamed "Thunder Ridge," is situated in Evergreen, Colorado, less than an hour away from Denver. It has a five-mile stretch of roads in the mountain that needs to be driven in order to reach the entrance of the home, and Berry uses this stretch as his personal racetrack.

Keep scrolling to see the mansion and the garage, which is 1,600 square feet larger than the home:

The home was first built in 2004.

It is currently listed for $19,999,000...

...and includes 79 acres of land.

The home is 25,400-square feet with seven bedrooms, 12 full bathrooms, and four half-bathrooms.

The garage is even larger at 27,000 square feet. It also has one bedroom and two bathrooms.

The architect of the home initially camped on the property for several nights to "make sure he got the Feng Shui of the place," the Wall Street Journal reported.

"The home itself benefits from an attentiveness towards Feng Shui and a commitment towards precision engineering," according to its listing on LIV Sotheby's International Realty.

There’s a wet bar…

...spa room…

...and wine room.

There are also at least four fireplaces in the mansion.

The tropical indoor swimming pool grotto has a tiki bar, hot tub, waterfall and a ceiling painted to look like the sky with fiber optics that light up to mimic constellations and shooting stars.

It was inspired by Hugh Hefner's infamous pool in the Playboy Mansion.

"I wanted to have a piece of the Playboy Mansion here in Colorado," Berry told the Wall Street Journal in an interview.

There's also an in-home theater that was inspired by Star Trek. The interior looks like the inside of the starship Enterprise and the theater seats are adorned with the fictional spacecraft's logo.

The seats can also be synced to action scenes and move in conjunction with the film on the screen.

Marble decorates the home, including the kitchen…

...bathroom…

...and dining room, to name a few.

There are also luxurious touches that show the architect's attention to detail, including this swan-necked sink.

The car showroom, which is larger than the mansion, can fit up to 100 cars.

It also has its own car wash and gas station.

Berry once owned 232 cars, including 23 Lamborghinis. However, his collection has since been reduced down to about 30 cars.

He claims his favorite car is his Bugatti Veyron, the Wall Street Journal reported.

If the next owners don't find a need for the car showroom, the space can be converted into stables or sports courts and rinks, Berry noted to the Wall Street Journal.

The house will set a record for the area if it's sold at its asking price of almost $20 million.
