Utah Man Builds Disneyland Replica in His Basement—But He’s Not Alone When It Comes to Disney-Themed Homes

Ever wish you could live in the Happiest Place on Earth?

Well, Travis Larson of Riverdale, UT, made that dream come true for his family by building a partial replica of Disneyland in his previously unfinished basement.

People reports that Larson, a former railroad conductor, began the project in 2005 and spent over $5,000 on the transformation.

Now, his own personal “Fantasyland” is going viral on TikTok, with more than 2 million views:

Incredible attention to detail

Larson’s fairy-tale basement features replicas of exteriors at Disneyland, including Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride, Snow White’s Scary Adventures, and Peter Pan’s Flight.

According to videos on his YouTube page, Larson completed most of the leaded glass, woodwork, concrete, brickwork, paint, and metal fabrication himself.

The mind-blowing space features daytime and nighttime lighting, crowd sounds, and queue music.

And it’s not just fun. It’s functional, too.

According to FOX 13, one of Larson’s daughter’s bedrooms is in the basement—as is his workshop.

If you’ve fallen in love with Larson’s unique property, you’re not alone. Alas, it’s not on the market right now.

Main Street, USA—in New York

However, there’s another home that pays homage to Disneyland out there—and it does happen to be for sale.

The house in Cutchogue, NY, was inspired by Disneyland’s Main Street, USA, and it’s listed for $3,399,000.

Boasting oodles of curb appeal, the exterior would fit right in with the Victorian-style structures that line Disneyland’s Main Street.

Real-life Haunted Mansion

If the Main Street replica is beyond your budget, there’s yet another Disney-inspired home on the market.

This six-bedroom estate for sale in Duluth, GA. was designed to look like Disneyland’s iconic Haunted Mansion.

For a buyer who doesn’t mind a few scares, the whimsical abode is available for $1,950,000. Fox 5 Atlanta reports that the property’s original owner, Mark Hurt, made sure that “the home’s dimensions and architecture closely matched those of the Haunted Mansion” when he built the place in 1996.

Disney castle vibes

While this famous fortress in Woodstock, CT, doesn’t have a direct tie to Disney, it’s a perfect purchase for a buyer in search of a close cousin to Cinderella’s Castle.

The one-of-a-kind castle has been on and off the market for a decade but has yet to find a royal suitor.

Currently listed for $29 million, the breathtaking 18,777 square-foot structure sits on 375 acres. The regal property features 126-foot towers, a 30-acre pond, and even a moat.
