The house is off the grid, which means it does not depend on electricity provided by the government. Rather, it has solar panels fixed on the roof to trap sunlight energy to generate electricity. The property also comes with a rainwater harvester, borehole, fruit trees all over the compound and a poultry farm.

Overpriced, Come to SA...for $500 000 you'll get proper luxury.

@MichaelBinta said:

Nothing in Ghana should worth $1m as there are barely any job opp that’ll match up to that standard

@borga22 stated his opinion by saying:

I do not want a ceiling fan or poultry farm for $2.5mil. I do not not want to even manually open doors for that amount. For that price, that house better be designed by David Ajaye or something. No fendi beds or even memory foams.
