I think I found my dream house.

Bad taste, bad!

[cuddlyevil]

A mirrored ceiling in the dining room?

[joenali]

It's like they really tried to be artsy and it just did not work.

[silva]

It's CUTE!!!!!










lol. I gasped.

[melodramatic26]

omg the mirrored bathroom. Why? Where does it end? seriously, WHY??

[tacocat]

 Well then. I don't really know what to say about that.

[rageragerage]

Two bathrooms in the master suite? Fancy. Looking at those pictures gave me a headache.

Are those computer desk chairs at the kitchen counter?!?!

Why would someone want to see themselves in so many different angles while take a wee?!?!

[meggers5]

For a house with so much...character, it sure does have a boring kitchen.

[zelda25]

Maybe it's Prince's house! LOL! In all seriousness, what's been done to that house a crying ass shame. If you stripped away the wallpaper, carpet, mirrors, chandeliers, and other outlandishly awful "custom touches," it's probably a really beautiful mid-century house.

The weird thing is it doesn't even go together. Each room is awful in it's own, special way.

This is what I was going to type. There are so many different styles going through that house.

[JamaicanPineapple]

I would run into the walls (mirrors) so often in that bathroom.

And WTF is going on in the master bedroom? Too much purple!

[shostakovich]

Getting high in this house would be really fun.

Waking up hungover in this house would be a motherfucking nightmare.

The backyard is nice.

[DotAndBuzz]

Wow. Turns out there is a house even more blinged out than mine was before we de-blinged. Holy mirrors.

[doctordonna]

Is that Henry Hill's second house in Goodfellas?

[pinkeggs]

Man, I wish Tim Burton would design MY house!

[nahoku]

It's a masterpiece!

That realtor must be VERY confident in his or her abilities.

[underwaterrhymes]

WOW!

[orangello]

The house itself is nice, and could be amazing if sane people lived there.

Of all the wonderfulness inside, the one that really got me was the whimsical use of office chairs as kitchen/dining furniture. Um, wut?

My inlaws live in Mendota Heights, I emailed my MIL the listing in case she needed some ideas for remodeling

[Booze Raccoon]

This whole house could be in that other post about terrible RE photos.

I kept clicking thinking "surely it can't get any worse" but it did every single time. (until I got to the back yard)

[Dagny]

That house makes me feel dizzy. Especially that bathroom. Good lord.

[WOT?*]

I bet that was totally the party house back in 1972 or so. Too bad it still is the party house of 1972. It would probably be really pretty if it wasn't so horrifyingly bad.

[julez]

They really took what was probably a perfectly lovely house and ruined it. I can't imagine how much money would be needed to put it back together.

Great location and great bones, though.

ETA: Here's another website with lots more pictures.  Holy cow.
