The sprawling Kentucky mansion built by the liquor mogul behind Jack Daniel's whiskey is now up for sale for $6 million in Harrods Creek, an exclusive neighborhood of Louisville.
'The Avish,' the stately, columned 20,000 square foot manor, was developed in 1910 by Owsley Brown and his wife, Laura Lyons.

Six bedrooms. One for each of my wives!

Yep your right on that one...driving (camping) through Tennessee and Kentucky you see a lot of those...
