My favorite parts are the pissing Bart, the exposed bathroom, and all that sheet metal.

what's with the wheels on the counters in the bathroom that very much seem to be anchored to the walls?

Calling all renovators and bargain hunters! This 5 bedroom 3052 sq ft home presents a golden opportunity to build equity and create your dream home. Put your renovation skills to work and unlock the hidden potential of this property. With its prime location and solid bones, the possibilities are limitless. Embrace your inner designer and turn this property into a stunning showcase. From updating the kitchen to revitalizing the outdoor space, let your imagination run wild and create a home that will make a lasting impression.

Translation: yes we know it looks like someone took drugs and decided to convert their house into a trendy nightclub, then ran out if drugs, but it does mean you can gut the place and start again. Which we hope is a selling point.

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 9 minutes ago

it would be a selling point if they also slashed the price by 20%

[-] morgunkorn@discuss.tchncs.de 19 points 2 days ago

What's special

UPDATING THE KITCHEN REVITALIZING THE OUTDOOR SPACE

yeah those are the only two things needed and voilà, a dream home!

[-] AngryishHumanoid@reddthat.com 35 points 2 days ago

Ok, but why? From the outside it looks like it was owned by sane people, but then....

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago

They started out sane but then started tweaking.

[-] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 11 points 2 days ago

There's clearly a carbon monoxide leak or something

[-] AtariDump@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

They don’t want us to talk…

[-] nouvie@ttrpg.network 26 points 2 days ago

It makes me think of Betelguese.

[-] Confused_Emus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 2 days ago

Definitely the home of an eccentric “artist.”

[-] CuddlyCassowary@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago

Kinda want to see what it looked like with their furnishings. It’s funny how much a normal toilet stands out!

[-] dmention7@lemm.ee 12 points 2 days ago

Same here! They definitely put a fair amount of deliberate work into that aesthetic, and I'd love to see how they decorated and furnished some of those rooms.

[-] burgersc12@mander.xyz 14 points 2 days ago

Oh my fucking god is the shower made out of windows??

[-] BigDaddySlim@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago

Well of course, if it was made from Linux it would leak everywhere since it's open source. You gotta have closed source to keep the water in, hence the Windows.

Or maybe I'm just confused

🪟 🪟 🪟

[-] RonnyZittledong@lemmy.world 16 points 2 days ago

There is a lot I would change about the house but I kinda dig the vibe

I mean right it’s weird and not what I would do. But you know that the person who did it was in love with idea and it’s nice to see that kind of passion.

[-] thr0w4w4y2@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

knocking-shop-core?

[-] TheFriar@lemm.ee 10 points 2 days ago

Maybe I just have bad taste but at least half of this type of “eclectic” style I actually like. Some of it is just trashy and gaudy, but some of it is just more interesting to look at than regular old “house” style

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Yeah some was ugly, but sincere, other was not so bad

[-] setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

The interior looks like a trendy, wannabe-upscale Mexican restaurant staffed entirely by hipsters who don't know how to make good Mexican food.

[-] PumaStoleMyBluff@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago

Looks like a "modern American" restaurant that serves room temperature fries and beer

[-] Classy@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 days ago

Can you imagine attempting to clean this

[-] Albbi@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 days ago

That driftwood in the lights, picture 19. Really tied the room together.

[-] invertedspear@lemm.ee 7 points 2 days ago

I think the majority of this is ATBGE. I believe except for a room or two that the previous owner was very happy with the way things looked. I just don’t think anyone else wants to live with those vibes and the cost of renovating that to something more generally appealing is going to be outrageous.

[-] burgersc12@mander.xyz 4 points 2 days ago

There's like two pictures here where "good execution" may apply, but the vast majority of this house is just awful taste and depressing.

Did anyone else watch "Monster House" on the discovery channel in the late 90s/early 00s? They did this kind of stuff all the time.

I don't understand what they were high on when they designed this.

[-] Lenggo@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

This looks like someone goes to a lot of punk shows and was really inspired by the aesthetic. I've seen this style in too many local bar/concert halls. Not enough sharpie writing and stickers in the bathroom though

[-] zephorah@lemm.ee 5 points 2 days ago

It’s like someone took everything they found free on FBM and used it to renovate. Sprinkle in the cheapest HD had available and discount mis-mixed paint, as available.

It’s a shame, the outside looks promising.

[-] motor_spirit@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

that metal on the porch was but a lil preview shot, shoowee

[-] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

Damn, $330k in my state wouldn't even get you something half the size

[-] SimpleMachine@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

I actually can't believe they're trying to sell that place for that much. Ritzville has literally nothing going on and it's in the middle of nowhere.

[-] easily3667@lemmus.org 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

That area of the state is climate hell. The only stories that come out of that part of the state are anti-liberal militia stories.

And wildfires.

[-] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 days ago

It’s nice in September. Driving through.

[-] DerEntenjager@feddit.nl 3 points 2 days ago

To be fair, most houses of that size out here would go for more like 500k. But since it's in a really rural location and is a fixer-upper, it's much cheaper

[-] sigmaklimgrindset@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 days ago

The deck area is nice...

That's all I got.

[-] DJDarren@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 days ago

Looks like it was styled by Otho from Beetlejuice.

[-] just_chill@jlai.lu 2 points 2 days ago

Well at least it seems to be able to function as a normal home and be neither dangerous or too uncomfortable (if you're blind). What's up with the white sploches on the black though ?

[-] loweffortname 2 points 2 days ago

It might be drywall patches they didn't paint over...

[-] just_chill@jlai.lu 1 points 2 days ago

That's a lot of patches though, which raises even more questions !
