The dream home for Star Wars fans is now on the market in Texas. But the path to the dark side is not cheap.

Known as “The Darth Vader House”, the 7000 square-foot (650 square metres) home in Houston’s West University Place subdivision has a listing price of US$4.3 million ($5.58 million).

The nickname comes from the exterior’s resemblance to the helmet of the famed Star Wars villain.

With an 18,000 square foot (1672 square metres) lot, the force is strong with this one.

The median lot square feet for West University Place is 7500 (696 square metres) – just about the size of this home.

Home values in the area range between US$805,000 and US$2.7 million ($1.04 million and $3.5 million) – far, far away from this price tag.

So the dark side may not be so dark after all.
