Zillow/Redfin Gems

[muted reborn]

I bought an ex swingers house. The master shower looked somewhat similar with multiple handles, shower heads and a chair.

I’m sure I’ve told this story before but the downstairs bath off the kitchen, you know, the kind of place that should be more of a powder room, had a full blown tub jammed into it. We had just redone all the hardwood floors and had the heat blasting for days to help cure them while we were away for days. I walked into that bathroom and it looked at first like a major water leak had covered the floor with water. I took one step into the bathroom, slipped and fell on my ass. The entire floor around that tub was covered in lube. Apparently it had all leeched into the floor and sat for however long in a cold house. After cranking the heat up, it expelled itself. So apparently these folks were doing some massive orgy work in the bathroom near the kitchen as well as the master bath and of course the master bedroom that had been hand painted to look like a castle with gaudy fountains and prancing horses.

jesus, you need a sexorcist to clear the musky gross vibes from that place

On closer inspection it's even worse (better?) than that. They removed a section of railing on the upper deck and are suggesting you should hit balls into the park from there. The write-up says "golf off the upper back deck." I'm not a golfer, would you be able to hit all the way across the park with a good drive?

It’s like 500’ across the park, a good drive would be well into the homes across the way. And apparently they want to put a playground in the park, so nothing in the way.

what a weird listing for a weird bachelor pad. other than sales rep I can’t think of any reason for that many Milwaukee tools.

Makes me hate that I have a mini-rack (no glass) for my odd obsession with having numerous glasses ready for grab and go depending on conditions. Haven't figured out a better way and sucks that mine looks half as douchy but still douchy.

Having a rack for convenience is one thing, having it to display a bunch of sunglasses you can buy at a gas station is another. That might be the douchiest part of this whole listing, and that's saying something. Nothing screams tasteless like owning a bunch of wrap around "sports" glasses.

If someone snagged that for $3.5 it seems like a screaming deal?

Is there a bunch of fine print I didn’t read? Like it’s falling into the ocean?

"list price is bidding start price and may differ from seller's reserve. AUCTION BIDDING OPEN: Bidding ends May 16th. Previously Listed $10M. Current High Bid $3.4M. No Reserve."

And they wonder why people think realtors are clowns

The price is right.

RIP Paul Reubens. Thx for making us laugh. And for inventing a great sandwich. Sorry about that embarrassing incident that ruined your career.

Do these houses ever completely collapse one night killing everyone, or do the floors just get more and more crooked until it gets ridiculous? Are slopes ever declared non permittable, or can you get anything done with enough money?

does the “Belgian consulate general” being a mile away answer what money can buy you?

Anybody want to start a cult? It’s not as large or amazing as ananda or the fellowship of friends apollo property, but could be a good starting spot:

Post Katrina, the fed gov made some exceptions to allow rebuilding in the coastal flood zone that receives wave action because of politics.

Well, sometimes houses in that general area come off their foundation and slide down the hill into other peoples homes. Like this one in 2008.

And their insurance company didn’t pay - said that they weren’t insured against “earth movement”.

I used to look at those houses above Broadway Drive sitting on stilts (like this gem) and cringe thinking about what a good earthquake will do.

Was that Epsteins house?

Nonetheless it’s a great property.

[Mazderati]

Brutalist cubed. I like this a lot and so would Delia Deetz, but would still prefer it tucked away in the trees instead of looking like a hickey on the countryside.

^^^ The interior isn’t bad.
The exterior is post modern cement castle or country jail.

PS. No way that piano can stay in tune.

[AdironRider]

I generally love when people really run with their own desires (and do in this case) but that is just not my style personally. I think Maz is onto something where the location is just off.

[ötzi]

If you buy that house the crown of Most Hated Person in Little Compton goes with it for free. If it didn't look like a nuclear recycling facility from the road it might be better, it's very visible.

[Mazderati]

Maybe justified given clues in the decor.

[dunfree]

It’s the landscaping. It’d work as a barnacle if it were surrounded by modern landscaping, but I’m guessing that’s out for zoning/ag conservancy rules? So instead there’s just weird stuff?
