I -think- this is it - the big white structure near the shore of the lake. At least the part of it that is built above ground. The roof appears white since it is covered in stainless steel. You can also see his driveway, and numerous docks on the property. More information is available on his house here and here. One search on Google turned all this info up.

Actually, the house is very interesting because of it's "green" factor - using recycled materials in construction, building most of it underground to conserve energy. OF course it's also automated every which way.
