Worcester Home Modeled After Versailles Has Price Drop
A home inspired by King Louis XVI has been on the market for a while, and it's now a little cheaper.
WORCESTER, MA — Louis XVI lived a life of extreme privilege — until the end.
The last king of France was beheaded by guillotine in 1793 after the French Revolution, which was triggered by his poor leadership.
Fast forward to 2020, there's a home in Worcester inspired by Louis XVI's reign (just not that end part). The home in the Westwood Hills neighborhood was built in 2001, and features gold leaf and Swarovski crystal finishes. There's also a very Versailles hedgerow at the front steps.
