Starting your journey at the foot of the driveway, one hops into single-seater car and is pushed down into the depths of the [show home's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/north-pole-cabin-on-zillow) garage. Through the garage, the car makes its way [up the stairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cobalt-coach-house), through the kitchen, up to the bedrooms and outside the master bedroom window into the backyard. The 'Roller Coaster Show Home' is sponsored by Dutch bank ABN AMRO; promoting homes throughout the month of December.
