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 1 month 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 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.

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 1 month 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 1 month ago (2 children)

And they're ALL DIFFERENT

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

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 month 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 1 month ago (2 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

My first thought. Definite Poolrooms energy.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

It's like a "cheerful" house of leaves

[–] [email protected] 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.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

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

The carpet in the bathroom is the bigger problem

[–] [email protected] 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?

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

Some people really enjoy a slowly rotting subfloor?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

I mean I don't, but...

[–] [email protected] 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.

[–] [email protected] 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.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago

It feels more like a community center than a home

[–] [email protected] 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.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

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

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

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

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

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

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

Sedona, AZ. Say no more.

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

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

No way, this is peak Boomer, guaranteed.

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

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

In this case, they went with weather formation

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

is this place flooded?

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

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Is the first pic supposed to be a garage?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

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