Celebrity Real Estate: Uncle Kracker Selling His Michigan Mansion where People can Watch the Sun Go Down

Matthew Shafer, aka Uncle Kracker, is ready to bid farewell to his custom-built mansion in Harrison Township, MI. The house is listed on the market for a cool $999,999. If you played rock music in the early 2000s, you must have heard Matthew Shafer, who is best known for his breakout song "Follow Me,'' along with his cover of Dobie Gray's "Drift Away'' and several other musical collaborations with such artists as Kenny Chesney and best bud Kid Rock.

Realtor said that the custom-built house of the 41-year-old singer and songwriter is pretty much what you would be expecting from the Kid Rock protégé. Listing agent Francesca Krause says of the mansion, "It's very [unusual] especially for the area. It's unlike everything else around here.''

The purple and blue neon lights are good features of the house that illuminate the circular chandelier and Roman pillars in the foyer, and the wide array of crystal chandeliers in the living room. Around the house, you are sure to appreciate the zebra-striped chairs, black built-in cabinetry and furniture, purple black walls, custom black built-in cabinets, and the LCD neon lights tracing the crown molding.

If there is someone who wants to own the mansion of Matthew Shafer, aka Uncle Kracker, in Harrison Township, MI, then get ready to buy it for a cool amount of $999,999.

According to Fox News, the house is really superb, but it's not quite as superb as a grand mansion. "It's got a ton of custom amenities from top to bottom," Krause says. "It takes a while to take them all in."

Built in 2003, the 4,709-square-foot home has four bedrooms and a garage for four cars. The basement area of the property has a "pub'' complete with arcade games, a full kitchen and a foosball table.

According to listing agent Krause, Shafer even installed a custom-made copper ceiling above the bar. The house also features a wine cellar, saltwater pool, gym, cabana and koi pond.
