1) The house is representative of Gatsby’s life. Like Gatsby, the house has many signals of rapidly gained wealth. When Gatsby dies, just as there was no one to attend his funeral, the house fell into disrepair and disuse.
2) “. . . a factual imitation of some Hotel de Ville in Normandy, with a tower on one side, spanking new under a thin beard of raw ivy, and more than forty acres of lawn and garden” Ch 9
“I believe that on the first night I went to Gatsby's house I was one of the few guests who had actually been invited. People were not invited -- they went there.” Ch 10

Gatsby gave parties to those he didn't even knew and none of them were his friends and the person he wanted to most impress didn't even come to morn for his death. A wealthy but a misfortune man.
