L@@K! Photos from Real Estate Listings (see remarks)

The sink is across from the toilet.

lol sic prob otm

xxpost oh lol doh

The shampoo rack appears to be the same size in both photos, even though the reflected image is twice the distance away from the viewer than the original shot. Yet they appear the same size.

I don't know if I'm making sense, but neither does this bathroom.

No funny caption. Just that I stared at this photo a lot longer than I should have, trying to make sense of that closet.

I'd rather live in the shed.

Slide #16, people. Slide #16.

$50k? I'll take it

oh god that toilet gives me the phear
especially THE WINDOW WTF
my dad’s friend had a creepy stinky spiderweb-filled outhouse and trying to balance my 5yr old butt on the “seat” (two planks with a hole) for fear of falling completely through the hole was one of the more terrifying experiences of my life

xxp I like how the dog's eyes are astrally projecting to the picture over the mantlepiece

is there a general thread for real estate listings of note? i've got a good one that is....weird but not in the spirit of this thread

Buying A House: C or D? is another thread that has listings on it.

But again, it's an Open House every day on this one.

Well, I guess you could buy it now and then sell it for $1.9M in April?

I have a dream to live that close to a Trader Joes.

xp, yeah a friend pointed that out -- we were guessing maybe it was a (now botched) Amazon flip.

(ie flip in anticipation of HQ2 in LIC)

genuinely a bit afraid of the mind that would come up with this design

Needs mirrors on the sides, imo.

click through for more, and also the inevitable man cave

Kitchen and walls painted custom by owner. … Furniture is negotiable.

I usually roll my eyes at man caves but someone in that place, who isn't face down in the pool, should be happy.

"Historical Texans burial plot in front yard."

my god

A historical Texans burial plot is one of those must-have features

Technically if the Texans buried in the front yard of this house aren't historical that means they would be scrabbling inside their coffins to get out which I can imagine could be off-putting at night

Long as they're Texans.

I'm totally into this woman's demented obsession, except for that weird mid-floor fold-out kitchen unit.

incredible find

Why aren't they "His" and "Her" pillowcases? Why aren't they "She" and "He" pillowcases?

"Him" and "Her" I mean.

Also, I could compile a weekly tumblr of nothing but real estate photos featuring electronic drum kits.

It wouldn't be the most exciting blog ever, but

hahaha

What this thread tells me is that Australians spend a lot more money on staging their homes as generic white boxes with awful art that people in other real estate state markets.

That isn't one of those "Oh! Haha" kinda pics that I spend too much time looking for online. And yet, it's stayed on my mind for the past 12 hours, since I saw it last night.

1.) The wall-to-wall carpeting.

2.) The vent near the middle of the sliding-glass door. Why?

3.) Note that I said near the middle. Another mark against this.

4.) Curtains in front of a sliding-glass door. Kinda feel it's gotta be vertical pleated blinds or nothing else, including the door.

5.) The space at the top between the curtains and the rod vs the extra slack drooped on the wall-to-wall carpeting.

6.) Each table has part of it folded over to the side. The chairs have minimal arm rests.

7.) The space at the top between the curtains and the rod vs. the space between the rod and what are literally rafters.

8.) The vacuum grooves in the wall-to-wall carpeting that imply that the frilly chair scoots around on its own.

9.) The rug on the wall-to-wall carpeting.

10.) And what's not shown in this photo: What on earth little elevated walkway is happening up here? See that plant on the right? Does it meet each wall and keep forming right angles?

2.) The vent near the middle of the sliding-glass door. Why?

This may have been a thing in the '70s. My first house as a kid had a vent right next to our upstairs porch door. Many mornings I spent camped out over that heat source with the cold winter glass behind my back.

wall-to-wall carpeting pretty normal in many parts of the world

W2WC is indeed everywhere.

I guess it's weird not to see a little tile in front of the door, an engawa to separate the deck from the rest of the house.

Goes along with no tile, but a vent. Lots of condensation on that window, I'd bet.

Curtains must flutter like a ghost.

the vent is to reduce the condensation by keeping the glass warm, so moist interior air doesn't bang into an ice-cold pane of glass and release moisture. (that is not an excuse for lousy design obv)

I'm seeing the reverse of that: ice-cold dry air blowing against a pane of glass with murky warm muggy conditions on the other side of it.
