I'm really hating the fad of counter top sinks. And the ones in that bathroom are obnoxiously big.

There's a lot going on inside that's on its way out, including the sinks. The fixtures and finishes make me think a lot of it was an assortment of discounted or clearance stuff. There's nothing cohesive going on there

It looks like a 'young professional' newly built apartment. Inside and out.

Meh all the way around.

A giant dildo was the first photo on the listing.

I HATE vessel sinks. I can deal with one in a prefer room. But I've seen houses with them in every bathroom. HUGE. How TF are you supposed to wash your face in one of those things?

Why is there a mirror instead of a stove? They must really be catering to the millennial crowd that cares more about looks than cooking.

Don't lie... this place would have been awesome as a kid.

Until you learned your dad has 32 video cameras on large screens in the garage - including bedrooms.

A few questions:

Why are there randomly 2 black and white photos?
Is there a pool in the front yard?
Why does there appear to be a sculpture having a good time with himself?
Why include a picture of your goats and their junk?

That's not a pool; it's a moat (or it's supposed to give the illusion of being a moat.)
Looks like someone let their kids and/or wife have too mush say in the design.

Edit: Goats+Moats= "Goat in the water!"

The streetview (2015) shows all that frou-frou was added post original construction.

Oof.

What do you mean my house in not worth $150,000 more than everything else in the builder-grade neighborhood?

Kitchen looks like they went to a Rainforest Cafe and said, 'I just had to have it!'

They totally ruined a nice looking house. I never understood these types of people.

WHY didn't they put that on the back wall? That's an astounding level of dumb.

All of the listings nearby have zero effort put into them, all contingent.

House #1: 2 inside pics / 4 outside, immediately contingent
House #2: Pictures were taken with a flip phone from 2004 (realtor.com stretches them much bigger and blurrier)
1755 Afton Ave


House #3: Pictures were either taken by a 7 year old or the listing agent is 3'6". Hope the sellers take their backyard junk with them!
1156 Northbridge Dr

I am not a fan of this new turret trend... trying to make homes look like mediaeval castles. This one really stands out. Did usually results in some awkward spaces inside, too.

If there was a nose coming off between those windows, it'd almost look like Pinocchio.

It's out of control now, though. WHOLE NEIGHBORHOODS of these, not just a house here and there.

Ill never unsee that face.

Creekside has its fair share, to. There is one mini-'hood/cul de sac where over 30% of the homes have a stupid turret (both round and square). You can see/count them on Google Maps satellite view.

They went out of fashion somewhere around 2013, in favor of the "farmhouse" look - ie,. painted brick and siding.

If you go to Paloma Pines and North/South Fremont Ridge Loop in 77389, you'll see them. Can you find the house with TWO turrets?
