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.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 months ago

There's even fish stickers on the shower door lol

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months 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.

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

I find a cloudy look in them.

[–] [email protected] 37 points 3 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 34 points 3 months ago (2 children)

And they're ALL DIFFERENT

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

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 months ago (1 children)

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

Feels like an episode of Interdemensional TV from Rick and Morty

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

[–] [email protected] 25 points 3 months ago (2 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

My first thought. Definite Poolrooms energy.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

It's like a "cheerful" house of leaves

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 months 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.

The carpet in the bathroom is the bigger problem

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months 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?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Some people really enjoy a slowly rotting subfloor?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I mean I don't, but...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months 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.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 months 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.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 months ago

It feels more like a community center than a home

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 months 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.

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

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

No way, this is peak Boomer, guaranteed.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago

Sedona, AZ. Say no more.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

In this case, they went with weather formation

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

is this place flooded?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Is the first pic supposed to be a garage?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

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