He stood there right in front of door of a mansion. It is hard to explain how beautiful it was. It was designed beautifully every corner of it, it possesses beautiful lawn and blue pond. It stood there right in front of him mightily telling its story in its own way. It was telling the world how beautiful it was and how wealthy and successful was the person who built it, the one who owns it. It was such an art and a house which has every leisure in it.

Sentences like
