If one thing's for certain, the Rose family came along way from their less-than humble roots by the end of Schitt's Creek, with their rockstar-lifestyle seeming more like a distant memory than their former reality.
And while the award-winning show has come to a bittersweet end, the popularity of the series continues to live on, and now, fans can get excited to learn that the Toronto mansion that was the former home of the iconic family before they moved to Schitt's Creek is for sale, with a price tag we assume Johnny Rose couldn't even afford before he went broke.
Imagine, getting to wander the halls the recent Golden Globe-nominated family called home? Well, if you've got a cool $14.9 million chilling in the bank, then the home at 30 Fifeshire Road could be yours.
Not only will the future homeowner need to have expensive taste, but they'll also need to appreciate over-the-top and somewhat obnoxious finishes, as the home, which is better known as the "La Belle Mansion", is anything but simple.
We'd like to think the home is as over the top as you’d expect one of Alexis’ past dating stories to be. Or if it was one of Moira's iconic wigs, it would be named Sassy. Or if it was a sweater, David -- the monochrome king -- wouldn't touch it.
All jokes aside, the 24,000-sq.ft home reminds us of the Palace of Versailles in France, and oozes luxury.

Located in Toronto's prestigious St Andrew Winfield's neighbourhood in North York, the home combines old artisanship with 21st century, state-of-the-art amenities.
The mansion holds 12 bedrooms, -- nine above grade and three below -- 16 bathrooms, a home theatre with eight seats, a golf simulator, a billiard room, a wine cellar, a fitness room, two pools, -- one indoor and one outside -- a sauna, and 14 parking spaces.
The home also boasts a massive formal entry with a domed ceiling, Sistine Chapel-inspired frescoes, breathtaking balustrades, and a marble staircase that will surely transport you to 17th-century France.
Fans of the series will likely recognize the grand foyer from the show's first episode, where the Rose family is sent scrambling to collect their belongings before they get repossessed by the bank and they're forced to move to their only remaining asset, the town of Schitt's Creek.
The home is also featured again in the show's holiday special, in which it's Christmas Eve and Johnny wants to celebrate with an old-fashioned Rose Christmas Party, but the rest of the family has trouble getting into the holiday spirit.

The news of La Belle Mansion hitting the market comes just over two months after it was announced that the motel used as the Rosebud Motel in all six seasons of Schitt's Creekwas listed for sale.
The motel is located in Mono, Ontario, and throughout the show’s illustrious six-season run, the motel’s exterior was used as the filming location, along with the Hockley Valley property, which sits just over an hour north of downtown Toronto.
The listings also come after winning in all seven major Emmy Awards comedy categories last fall, Schitt's Creek has just landed five Golden Globe nominations, including best TV musical or comedy series.
As with the Emmys, all four leads of the Ontario-shot show have also snagged acting nominations for the Golden Globes.
