Overall a nice house with some lovely scenic views. But someone was very chandelier-happy.

Also, white carpet in the red-sanded Arizona desert? Possibly not the best plan.

Even the bathroom- chandelier.

Jeez. At first glance I thought that first pic was an indoor swimming pool.

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 22 points 1 month ago

There's even fish stickers on the shower door lol

[–] dditty@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

So what is the pic showing then, just a polished blue floor in some living room-type area?

[–] TootSweet@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I'm guessing it's supposed to be a... dance hall? Or maybe a big dining room or something? But yeah. I think it's just a polished floor.

[–] Xanthrax@lemmy.world 43 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Why would you paint the sky on the ceiling and then add chandeliers?! It feels like a fallout bunker.

Paris, TX was not enough so they made their own Versailles, AZ

This seems like a fake house that's just for hosting parties lol like I can't imagine someone actually living in such a ridiculous space

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 34 points 1 month ago (2 children)

And they're ALL DIFFERENT

Seriously, how did they find SO MANY completely different chandeliers?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's like it's a chandelier display store for very elite customers.

[–] CptEnder@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Feels like an episode of Interdemensional TV from Rick and Morty

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

I think whether it was intentionally one or not, it's become one

[–] MisterNeon@lemmy.world 25 points 1 month ago (2 children)

It's got some "backrooms" / liminal space vibes.

[–] LEONHART@slrpnk.net 8 points 1 month ago

My first thought. Definite Poolrooms energy.

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

It's like a "cheerful" house of leaves

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Things like this remind me that rich people have the absolute worst fucking taste imaginable. Assuming they have any taste beyond "maximally expensive" like they're pre-modern nobility.

[–] Flax_vert 1 points 1 month ago

Even pre modern nobility had ideas like gothic architecture vs Gregorian or something

[–] Jackcooper@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago (2 children)

The carpet in the bathroom is the bigger problem

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I have encountered that so many times in otherwise normal houses. I don't get it. Toilets can overflow, showers and sinks can leak. Why would you do that?

[–] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Some people really enjoy a slowly rotting subfloor?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I mean I don't, but...

[–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

My house had carpet when I moved in. Fuck - and I cannot stress this enough - that noise.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Ours too. Most of it has been replaced with laminate flooring. Nice to be able to clean a floor with a broom and you can deal with most stains with a mop.

[–] Emperor 15 points 1 month ago

The location is magnificent but everything about the house is naff - not just the chandeliers but the curtains, the kitchen, the balconies, the archways, even the outdoor area. The temptation would be to knock it all down and put in something more open to take advantage of the vistas.

[–] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

It feels more like a community center than a home

[–] uservoid1@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

With all the chandeliers you sure to have at least one not working in a given time.

Cozy little place, I do hope 27 parking spaces would be enough. The scenery is outstanding.

[–] BitsAndBites@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

The cover photo looks like an AI generated image since it doesn't understand the appropriate number of light fixtures.

[–] ThePantser@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

They bought one and Amazon fucked up and sent a pallet.

[–] Num10ck@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

they should make counterstrike levels out of bad real estate like this

[–] skye@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

i think someone just took counterstrike levels and made bad real estate out of them

[–] BilboBargains@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Loving the clouds painted on the ceiling. Did a five year old design this house?

[–] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

No way, this is peak Boomer, guaranteed.

[–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 month ago

Sedona, AZ. Say no more.

[–] meowMix2525@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago

I thought it was filled with water from a hurricane at first glance

[–] GreatAlbatross 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I guess when you have double-height rooms, you have to use that space for something.

[–] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

In this case, they went with weather formation

[–] Tugboater203@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

The thumbnail made it look like a pool with chandeliers, I'm not sure this is better.

[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Does it come with a roomba drone to dust all those chandeliers?

[–] 4oreman@lemy.lol 5 points 1 month ago

is this place flooded?

[–] Nougat@fedia.io 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That carpet is filthy. They didn't even vacuum it.

[–] Longing@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I'm not even sure if that's carpet.

[–] kamiheku@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 month ago

The first pic makes me think of Eastern Europe / just straight up Russia

[–] AlexisFR@jlai.lu 4 points 1 month ago

Is the first pic supposed to be a garage?

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Well, if you have high ceiling rooms, a chandelier looks better than some flat lights somewhere up there.
