Ray Lewis is selling his house, and the place looks nice. It really does.

Everything looks very much like you'd expect it to, until you get to the red . . .

The bright red portions of Lewis' house are taking a real pounding on the Internet, where, for the $1.1 million asking price, people seem to be expecting something a little more millionaire's club and something a little less fast-food diner.

Lewis paid $753,000 for the 4,283-square-foot Owings Mills, Md., home back in 1999. It's full of granite and fireplaces and has an Olympic-sized pool, a sauna, two fireplaces and one of those full-room closets you see on MTV's "Cribs," which actually once featured the place on an episode that included Ted Nugent.
