They raised the front door so they could have that stupid landing inside.

I assume by "pending" they mean the crew with the bulldozers has already been scheduled.

I really would like to know the architect who drew up those awful plans!

Dude, there was no architect involved with that.

My 12 year old daughter could design a better house than that.

My guess is that someone bought one of those books with a bunch of home floorplans to choose from that you can use to order actual blueprints to, then modified the hell out of it with crappy customizations.

I guess. I'm just baffled, I can't imagine how anyone would sit down with a pencil and a piece of paper and come up with that. Who puts the door behind a column? Look at the ridiculous angles on the eaves.

It looks almost as if you had two people building the house independently of each other. One person worked on the inside and the other worked on the outside and when they met at the front door they were like, "Uh Oh this isn't gonna work!" But they didn't fix it.

Hey, easy on the ladies. This has the look of a civil engineer who OF COURSE could design his own house.

I love this thread because we almost always seem to find the terrible things before they go viral on instagram or blogs. There's no way that house doesn't make its way in to 'Please hate these things'

Great little country spot 5 minutes from downtown Houston. Except for the roar of the freeway, you'd never know you were in Houston at all, much less so close to downtown, the Heights, etc. Beautiful property - but it's in the freaking floodway. AND has a basement. I used to live on this street (much further down and out of the floodway - but close enough) and seeing that basement right there on the bayou gives me anxiety. My neighbors across the street had a basement similar to this and it was a nightmare every time it flooded (and again, wasn't near this close to that bayou).

One would think that a 3 million dollar listing would get a decent photographer.

At that location the actual house might not even matter. I give it a 50/50 shot of being scraped and the lot divided up.

Good thing they spent all that money remodeling it then.

Good point. Didn't even think of that

You never know with people, maybe they figured they were going to live there longer or just remodeled without talking to someone first. Or maybe it's not in the kind of location where teardowns and subdividing happen. I don't know Houston but it seems like a spot that's fairly well inside the city anyway.

It's more fun to assume they figured they'd get all their money back because they inherited the house or something.

I think this belongs here. It's listed by Offerpad.com, which I guess isn't exactly surprising. Not one TV is at a reasonable height and it looks like the owners have never actually gotten rid of a chair. Just put it in a corner in another room. The longer you look at the bad pictures, the more weird stuff you find.

This beautifully appointed and obviously LOVED home in RISD is ready for you to make your own. Entering through the huge metal double front doors leads into this easy flowing floorplan. Soaring ceilings in the main living are conducive to making memories around the fireplace. Cabinet space galore in the kitchen will impress any chef. Professionally done patio enclosure allows you to enjoy the outdoors without the heat. Incredibly functional outdoor kitchen with too many features to list must be seen to be believed. Vaulted ceilings in the master retreat feels even more spacious than it looks. Double vanities and wide shower in the master bath makes morning routines a breeze. Flex space off garage can fit any need, from gym to office to playroom. The lovely neighborhood makes this home on an extra large lot feel like a real winner, easily positioned directly across from a great park and elementary school. Great backyard with fully enclosed shed makes for great additional storage.

Didn't even notice the extra useful paper towels in that kitchen.

I just love that the cabinets are so vast that a professional chef would love it, yet they brought in what I use as garage shelving to hold their pots, pans, and various other random things

It would be way more cool if it was made for a kitchen and no a garage

$100 says those pics do NOT represent the current condition of the house!
