If you want to live like a President but don't have what it takes to win an election, this house may be for you. 

A  33,547 square foot, five bedroom, five and a half bathroom house just hit the Evansville, Indiana real estate market, and it bears a striking resemblance to a home of the same color in Washington, D.C. 

This $8.5 million listing for a single-family home with a 26-car garage allows its inhabitants to live like the first family, if desired, since it's a spin-off of the White House, with ample marble details, chandeliers, oil paintings and many more fine finishings. 

With a facade and color that looks like a pretty close dupe of the actual White House, this midwestern masterpiece welcomes inhabitants to the main level with a two-story great room, grand curved staircases, a chef's kitchen, elegant dining room, an immense main suite with connected fitness room, cozy family room, pool area and more. On the second floor await four more bedrooms—all with their own full bath—two offices, a billiards room, game room and media room. The third floor offers ample storage. 

The listing describes the mansion, which was built in 2008, as "exquisite, phenomenal, pristine, elegant, charming and breathtaking."  The 40-plus acre estate boasts features such as a  recreational sports area, event facility, horse barns, a riding arena, a guest house, lake and more.  

Interested? The pricing breaks down to $253 per square foot. 

Plus, the faux White House listing has received quite a following in the real estate group, Zillow Gone Wild
