Woman Builds $2 Million Home Half Price

HOUSTON - Imagine getting a million dollars to build your dream home.

One local woman did, and she turned that million dollars into a $2 million palace.

The 15,000 square foot home features a backyard swimming pool, complete with a lap lane, waterfall, dancing fountains and lazy river.

Eveyln Sorenson's husband may have paid for the sprawling estate, but it was Mrs. Sorenson who built it.

At first glance, her taste may seem a little excessive, but once you get to know her, you'll discover a woman who knows how to get what she wants on the cheap.

She came in more than $200,000 under budget.
