oh wow. I've often wondered what I'd find on some of those roads that dead end at Elings, and this does not disappoint. looks like jimmy j art extruded into 3D space.

Harbl how could you even be in that bathroom? I would have a seizure I think.

it's really beautiful tile work... craftsmanship (and lots of beautiful tile for that matter) feels wasted on the whimsy of what they're going for

The bathroom is like being in an aquarium with fish and sea otters.
???
― mom tossed in kimchee (quincie), Monday, 18 October 2021 17:30 (two years ago) link
it is like that only because the sea otters would die in an aquarium, and this sight could make one vomit.

eh, it was probably an infant daycare. our kids go to a regular house where the bathroom has like six toilets.

That's not a regular house.

Surprised Goldilocks ever left that place.

my working theory was that there were three kids and nobody used the bathroom at the same time, but the parents wanted them each to have a separate "station" due to some misguided hygienic obsession.

My maternal great grandmother toilet trained her kids by tying them to a toilet whether they needed to poop or not
― A Pile of Ants (Boring, Maryland), Wednesday, 12 January 2022 22:56 (two years ago) link
awkward walking around for a year or two tied to a toilet, but i bet that worked.

yeah i think DC is right. they don't poop together! this is so their bottoms don't have to touch the same toilet someone else's bottom has touched!!!

This one gives me bad vibes and I can't exactly put my finger on whyhttps://www.zillow.com/homedetails/75-Southgate-Ave-Hastings-On-Hudson-NY-10706/33022662_zpid/?
― longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Sunday, 13 February 2022 04:20 (two years ago) link
probably because it costs $800k and absolutely sucks?
― call all destroyer, Sunday, 13 February 2022 04:24 (two years ago) link
lol, yeah that might be it
― longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Sunday, 13 February 2022 04:36 (two years ago) link
honestly it's a pretty wild ass asking price. 5,000 sf lot, clearly needs complete renovation, oil heat, who knows what fucked up shit lurks beneath the surface. I know the market is hot but have a hard time believing it's that hot rn.
― longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Sunday, 13 February 2022 04:39 (two years ago) link
Having a sink in your carpeted primary bedroom is a bad vibe.

House + close to NYC = $$$
― Evan, Sunday, 13 February 2022 14:06 (two years ago) link
Yeah, it's 20% above appraised value which is aggressive but it's an aggressive seller's market. It's a good school district on a direct train to NYC.
― removing bookmarks never felt so good (PBKR), Sunday, 13 February 2022 14:17 (two years ago) link
That house would cost at least twice that in California.
― π ππ’π¨ (caek), Sunday, 13 February 2022 15:45 (two years ago) link
I think it's priced high even for the market. I would think more like $650,000-700k, and that's if there isn't some kind of lurking disaster under the surface.
For $50k more you can get this pretty sweet mid-century modern. Admittedly smaller but much bigger lot. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/21-Crossbar-Rd-Hastings-On-Hudson-NY-10706/33023190_zpid/

two similarly-situated properties for sale down the street from me, 7000 and 4000 sq ft lots for 325k and 230k. they are listed as lot/land but were recently occupied, definitely worth more to someone who wants to build multi-family homes on them. both are well over their tax-assessed value but that's not unusual.

Unless youre the only person with a big lot in the neighborhood, a big lot is just a sign you live in an unwalalkable bit of the suburbs tbh
― π ππ’π¨ (caek), Sunday, 13 February 2022 16:35 (two years ago) link
10k sf is a nice happy medium, enough to have a yard but your neighbors are actually neighbors.

― π ππ’π¨ (caek), Sunday, 13 February 2022 16:59 (two years ago) link
But yeah generally a small lot can be a reasonable trade off if you can walk to downtown/school/park/etc

I grew up on a 4,000 square foot urban lot in a big city and it was plenty of room for a garden, a swing set and sandbox, and grilling patio. When youβre 5 it might as well be 100 acres.
― Johnny Mathis der Maler (Boring, Maryland), Sunday, 13 February 2022 18:03 (two years ago) link
i would be fine with a half acre with mature shade trees, woodland, swimming lake, etc. lot as long as everyone else had 20ft wide lots on 3000 sq ft so it was still walkable.

I'm going to call bullshit on mid-century modern - that's a split-level no matter how nice they made it.

Yeah curbside is ugly as fuck and split level = horrible thing that did not survive as an architectural concept because AWFUL
