Entertaining House Listing

[stretchad]

I think I've looked at every single house listing on redfin for the seattle area. This one I stumbled upon today made my eyes pop out of my head and I thought you guys would get a kick out of it:

I should add, the outside is fine. But wait till you get to photo 3. Is that carpet on the wall?

Some of the rooms aren't too bad - nms, but not awful. They should have put that one orange room with the carpet on the walls at the end or left that photo out all together.

ITA. The outside could be pretty cute with some landscaping and stuff, and neutralizing the inside. But MAN, the wallpaper!!

Wow, the whole thing is definitely nms, but that orange room and the carpet wall take the cake!

Yikes.

Also, did no one proof read the listing??

I actually think the house has a lot of potential (although after taking down wallpaper in my tiny bathroom a few years ago, that would be a dealbreaker for me). That one weird carpet-wall room is so ugly though! It reminds me of a roller skating rink.

Man, I remember house hunting. Are you at the point where you see a listing and think to yourself "I'm not sure if I've looked at this one or not..."? I found that taking a break and looking only once or twice a week instead of daily helped.

And other than photos 3 & 4 it looks alright to me.

Looks like the carpet wall is in a basement room - so I'm guessing the part it's covering is actually concrete foundation and they figured that would make the concrete more friendly? Ick though
