Live in a covered bridge on 240 acres in Stowe for only $17.5M
Attachment 422165
The turnery and that staircase are quality, unsure the outrigger canoe in pic #20 or the statue at the base but there was some effort put in
Woodwork from staircase to cabinetry and beams looks well done. I couldn’t tell if the handful of decorative touches are real or just an attempt at staging by someone who couldn’t figure out what to do with the space.Quote:

If you believe that, I have a bridge to sell you.
It’s dated but actually pretty well done
240ac is a solid spread for it too
It wasn’t cheap
that bed ran a used car (well finished quilted maple?) the sink too. Coupled with the sette with nice volutes wonder if they know the IV (international violin, it’s in Stowe) people?
A lot of things about it are cool but the "covered bridge" design is kinda hokey to me. Probably cost what, 3 mil at least to build in '94
Did this one get posted yet?

I guess with that house you just keep an exterminator on retainer.
There's 5 different dwellings on that property, the treehouse is just one of them. I dunno, almost 7 acres right down the road from the beach with all kinds of funky stuff on the property - a 60-foot manmade cave! - and everything supposedly in good shape, I think it's kinda awesome. I wouldn't buy it, but it's kinda cool.
Despite my deep hatred for the Air BnB that was next door to me in Portland, I have to say that place would be a great STR. How much money and/or time do you need to have to build around a live tree like that?
I've seen other homes built around tree trunks but the trunks were vertical. The meandering part of the oak is what makes this one particularly unusual.
It attracts white trash tourists in Winnebagos - specifically to ride quads on the sand dunes. Other than that it's just a blink and you'll miss it small town on the PCH.Quote:

Dear gawd. The best images of the house you own can only be attained by drone. So you can see the mounds of garbage. And your neighbor's squatters garbage. Depressing.Quote:

In what world does it make sense that you can’t kick squatters off your property?

Looks like the squatters in the place are fairly recent (since Google maps took its last pic at least), but the ones next door have been there for a while: https://www.google.com/maps/place/52...4d-122.6087786

You can. Don't know why the landlord hasn't. Guessing he's broke.Quote:

I think the whole states of OR and WA had moratoriums, but ours has been over for a while. I guess it's still in effect in pdx? But if I'm not mistaken, they were specifically for financial hardship / non-payment.
Intentional property damage and/or criminal actions (guarantee they're smoking meth/crack/H) fall under lease/rental agreement violations, and they can be evicted for cause, or in extreme cases - like this - the landlord can file an eviction and have them served with an unconditional quit notice of 24hrs.
I suspect one of those has happened, and the tenant(s) said fuck you, we won't go. So now the landlord needs lawyer money, which I'm guessing they don't have.

Check out the recommendation from the real estate agent selling that squatter house in PDX:
“Jones advised people not to leave their homes vacant regardless of if they have security. He said it’s becoming all too common that people break in and never leave.”
https://www.kgw.com/article/news/loc...f-b3a51b0087a5
More of that behavior will occur as the economy continues to beat the crap out of the lower financial class
Cops claiming that it’s a civil issue is bullshit. These people weren’t renters who refused to leave. It’s literally breaking and entering and then never leaving. Cops in Oregon are basically refusing to do their job all over the state because they’re mad that voters decriminalized drugs. Buddies house on the coast was broken into and the cops told him they’re not prosecuting any property crimes. Also warned him not to physically harm any potential future intruders. WTF?
Hell, i think a majority of voters are mad that we decriminalized drugs. I wouldn't be surprised to see that reversed in the next few years.Quote:
