A Kurdish business tycoon is building a $20 million replica of the White House in a swanky neighborhood in Erbil, Iraq. The knockoff is situated not 50 miles away from ISIS-held Mosul.

Shihab Shihab, a Kurdish business tycoon, commissioned the mansion to be built with Greek marble instead of sandstone, and while it is smaller than the original White House at 32,300 square feet, the home comes complete with a 9-foot crystal chandelier, 21-karat gold ceilings, and a Turkish bath.

Shihab dreams of Obama coming to visit the house in Kurdistan one day. "If Obama comes, I will invite him to come here," Shihab told NPR. "We will invite him to have Erbil kebab and fish."

Here's a peek inside the construction:

The home will have two master bedrooms, but Shihab doesn't remember how many rooms the mansion has total — he told NPR it's so big, he can't keep track. Matt Cardy/Getty Images

When a buyer offered to pay $17 million for the mansion back in October, Shihab reportedly refused, according to the NY Daily News. Matt Cardy/Getty Images
