‘Why is Santa moving?’ St. Nick’s home in the North Pole pops up on Zillow
If you happen to be an avid Zillow prowler on the house hunt, you might have noticed a rather adorable Christmas listing that is currently off market.
Santa Claus’ home and all that comes with it at the North Pole.
“A winter lover’s paradise nestled on 25 idyllic acres,” the listing describes. ”The property includes Santa’s main living quarters, a community of tiny elf homes, a state-of-the-art toy-making facility, garage with space for an all-weather sleigh and stables that board eight live-in reindeer, plus a bonus stall for red-nosed company.”
The home, which “zestimates” at a little over $1 million, was built in 1822 and covers around 2,500 square feet. And, yes, Santa’s elves have their very own village.
“This year, the Clauses updated their home photos, and it looks like they have a few new additions to their home, including a stationary bike and newly-adopted pup. Use our hints here to see if you can spot all eleven!”
According to Zillow, Santa’s home is “steeped in Old World charm” and has a sack-full of features including:
Floor-to-ceiling fireplace
Gourmet kitchen
Oven that has “12 different cookie settings”
Cocoa on tap
Primary bedroom
Two guest rooms
Study
The elf village has multiple tiny houses for Santa’s keen helpers. There’s even a “petite bamboo bungalow” to provide serenity for the hard workers.
“The energy flow between the meditation space and yoga studio achieves perfect feng shui. Pull up a pouf to the sushi bar and relax with a cup of tea,” the listing says of elf village.
The listing managed to nab the attention of the popular Facebook page Zillow Gone Wild, causing most people to set aside their sarcasm for a second and marvel at the cuteness that is the post.
“Well, this post had just taken all the snark right out of me,” one person noted. “Merry Christmas!”
“These tiny homes are adorable!” another said.
“Well, this is all just so perfect and cute,” one person observed.
“I’m going to start leaving out Santa some sushi instead of cookies and milk… who knew!” another exclaimed.
“These are so cute and would be so cool to have as a B&B!!” one person said.
“People love tiny homes until they realize they knock their elbow every time they turn around, meanwhile they have 25 acres outside,” another said of Elf Village.
“Cozy! …..but where’s the bathroom?” one person asked.
Of course, one person wondered if the the big guy in red was actually planning to ditch the North Pole.
“Why is Santa moving??”
