      I probably would too, but the resemblance to a shelter you would have expected to see in someone’s garden in London in the 1940s was too fun not to share.

      Yeah, I spent a good amount of my time as a kid in the crawlspace and in homemade box forts. I’d have loved an actual cave to hang out in!

    More of a traditional New Mexico Pueblo apartment, especially with the ladder, Adobe and vigas. Check out Mesa Verde, Chaco Canyon, Bandelier National Monument or Taos Pueblo.

    Love how their write up is “Cash flow like crazy with the ultimate Airbnb/VRBO.”

      That’s what confused me about this. I guess I know nothing about British air raid bunkers. But to me that looks more like a Pueblo than a bunker.

      It looks like a playhouse pueblo inside that’s probably an actual pueblo. I’d bet this is a fairly expensive place around Santa Fe or something like that.

        It’s much weirder than that - it’s a bizarre take on an adobe mixed with modern house, in Wisconsin. The Zillow link is in the post.

          Whoa. I was thinking it was a cute idea if a bit over the top. My thought process was:

          Oh, that’s kinda cool. Probably some yuppie couple or grandparents in Santa Fe.

          Oh my god that is atrocious tragedy

          Okay, this is amazingly bad. Borderline so bad it’s good. It’s like someone was trying to be quirky, but somehow lacked the skill.

          How many fucking beds are there? What is this, a cult?

          Oh, AirBnB. That explains everything.

          Also$1.5M buys you a shitload of house in Wisconsin.

    That’s a house that they built exactly how they wanted. Selling be damned, and now they have to sell it.

    I also wonder what all our clicks do to the analytics. “wow, my house is popular! I can sell it for more!” Nah man, we were just laughing at it.

      I like the fake waterfall in the pool. It’s like they told the contractor they wanted a real waterfall and there wasn’t room, so he came up with a creative solution.

      I kept scrolling through thinking whoever designed this was definitely not responsible for cleaning. The sheer despair I would feel if I had to dust all those rock surfaces!

    Sorry but we’re in Bad real estate, not Amazing real estate that everyone wishes they had.

    I do prefer my living room not feeling like the interior of a zoo terrarium, even from the outside. I also like flat floors without pebbles.
    A lot of the details of the house are lovely in isolation, that’s just a lot going on, and I don’t want to know how you clean the faux-rock surface.

    This community is teaching me that custom everything is not actually a good idea. At least not when it comes to reselling.
