It feels.like there's a few tales to be told about that place.

For starters it looks like a house has been put on top of another house.

Then a few rooms look like they were fitted out for animals, possibly primates.

Then the rest of the house has the feel of a cheap porn venue.

All selling points as far as I'm concerned, although it might need a scrub down with bleach.

It looks like a house that has held more than one person prisoner.

Possibly with their consent. Is this horny jail?

We must be looking at different houses. I'm seeing rape dungeon, you're seeing party pad. Hmm.

That was my thought as well: "that's quite the cat tree"...

"Wait, the whole house is a cat tree? "

And the scale suggests they'd be big cats. I suppose the lingering odour of lion urine would keep most wildlife away (also people).

That gives it the air of professionalism it doesn't deserve. It's just a place folks can get freaky on film.

It still sells. The house? Not so much?

[–] protist@mander.xyz 16 points 1 year ago

That there is a house with character. Seems like you could explore in there for days unless it collapsed on you

I don't know what I was expecting the house to look like, but it wasn't that

The realtor is doing their best... "Are you looking for a unique home with ample space to create and make your own. This home boasts a large unique master bedroom, living areas and bathrooms. Come take a look, see the possibility and turn this into your dream today." 🙄

[–] Emperor 2 points 1 year ago

But is it unique enough?

It reminds me of Groverhaus.

If you know on the door you're either gonna die at that house or get the best damn feed you've ever got.

[–] SaakoPaahtaa@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Honestly, not too bad and very affordable. Of course it would need some TLC but still

[–] IMALlama@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

This thing looks very slapped together. I agree that there is potentially opportunity, but I would be very cautious of the structural integrity. It's possible the person who did this was short on funds but knew what they were doing. It's also possible they were just winging it.
