Milani and his wife Yvonne moved into the home in 2001 but have had financial problems and barely avoided foreclosure in 2009. After Milani's plight got media coverage, his lender agreed to negotiate.

The 16,500-square-foot faux-White House sits on about two acres in the North Druid Hills suburb. It includes six bedrooms, seven full and three half-baths, and, remarkably, a 75-car-parking lot.

In 1995, Milani converted from Islam to Christianity. His bushes and home décor speak to his adopted religion.

Milani works in an oval office underneath the presidential seal. His house is about one-third the size of the actual White House.

Even the dining room has been carefully recreated to match the president's space in Washington, D.C.

Milani voted for former President George W. Bush twice but says he also admires current President Barack Obama. Surprisingly, he says he's not that political a person.

In addition to the columns out front and the oval office, the home even has a Lincoln bedroom for overnight guests.

Does the tiled M at the bottom of the pool stand for Madison, Monroe or McKinley? No, it stands for Milani, the owner of the home.
