Stuart Yount, the CEO of building material company Fortifiber, and his wife Geri built the house from the ground up, per The Wall Street Journal. They bought the land in 1994 and spent five years completing the mansion. The mansion has been the Younts' primary home for 25 years, listing agent Mike Dunn of Chase International told Insider.
