Once a millionaire declared himself bankrupt and moved to his mother’s barn to live there.
The construction was located on the outskirts of Derbyshire, where the traffic movement was not active.
It’s an ordinary warehouse, used for tractors and forage until he decided to turn it into a house for him.
The neighbors and those who had learned about the new owner of the barn started kidding him.
And the rumors behind his back lasted for about 15 years until they knew the truth.
That man was Alan Yeomans from England, who rebuilt the old barn turning it into a historic mansion.
He maintained the outer appearance of the building nearly as it was, only remoted a little to have a stronger base.
And according to his neighbors, the barn seemed to be more abandoned after him.
Besides, as people noticed, Alan used to dress up simply: he chose casual and chip clothes not to catch attention, they said.
So, over 15 years, until one day he invited his neighbor to visit.
However, to everyone’s surprise, the police came to visit him instead.
During the investigation, officers discovered that inside the mansion there were gold inlays, original paintings, and luxurious and antique household things.
They estimated his property was about 2.2 million dollars.
In addition, it turned out, that he had a secret bunker, where he used to produce cannabis and export them illegally.
After discovery, he was sent to prison for six years.
So, never judge a book by its cover!
