WTH House has been removed from the market. Built in 1932 in Westmont, Illinois, it's been renovated, but whoever did the reno must've been on shrooms at the time. 4bds, 4ba, and they're asking $849,900, which is probably why it's been taken off the market, b/c no one would pay that much for it, and it can't possibly pass a home inspection. Take a look.

Weird entrance. I don't even know if the door clears that first step, but there's this ersatz elevated platform w/a small door and angled stairs so you can display a lovely collection of large vases. (Also note the off-center pot light shining brightly.) That abstract painting is a prophesy of things to come.
Tumblr media
The platform continues on around to the side entrance. Why do they need that thing at all? Unusual features: Light fixtures under the window sills and another one under the stair railing.
Tumblr media
I don't know if this is the family room or main living room, but it's normal.
Tumblr media
Observe the obstacles in the hall to get to the kitchen steps. The frame around the windows doesn't look right.
Tumblr media
You can see it better from here. They made an elaborate kitchen entrance, there's some room off the stairs, maybe a toilet, and the fridge is too close to the edge.
Tumblr media
Double doors in the dining area open to a bedroom.
Tumblr media
Floor tile on the bathroom walls.
Tumblr media
By the wild wood grain on the door to the primary suite, it looks like they used plywood to make the doors. There's a simple homemade kitchenette behind the door.
Tumblr media
PeeWee's Playhouse doorway to the en-suite shows the shower in full view. (Nope.)
Tumblr media
The mirror continues the theme of the ceiling angles and there's a long window seat.
Tumblr media
Okay, this deck off the primary bedroom is nice.
Tumblr media
This is another large bedroom.
Tumblr media
These angle-lovin' folks must've had all the mirrors cut to order.
Tumblr media
A monolithic column with niches stands in the middle of this bedroom.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The best part is the basement, though, where there's a castle-like feel. Love the walls and the fireplace. I must say that the mason they hired was superior to the carpenter.
Tumblr media
This bath is nice and carries through with the castle theme.
Tumblr media
The levels and angles continue on the exterior of the home.
Tumblr media
Nice big yard. The house is on a .49 acre lot.

One day I truly wanna just get sooo deep into the different cultures that kind of exist in Ninjago but in the weird Ninjago fashion of taking bits and pieces and horribly misrepresenting them.

Very interesting architecture- this 1984 home’s roof is part of the landscape, complete with grass plus a structure. It was recently sold in Garfield, Arizona for $219K and is a unique home, but the bath is the best part. Check it out.
Tumblr media
You can either enter from here, or the sliding glass doors in the back.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Architectural features include stone walls, cement flooring, and a very unusual ceiling. 
Tumblr media
Pretty nice stairs go up to the structure on the roof.
Tumblr media
That room in the distance- is that a cement wall? 
Tumblr media
The kitchen appears to have a corrugated metal ceiling. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Or, is it plastic, b/c it looks like it has a serious leak. 
Tumblr media
There are 2 bdms. and I hate the drop ceiling. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The main bathroom is also built into the landscape- look at the rocks.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I think that this is the structure on the roof. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There is a shower and a walk-in closet.
Tumblr media
I don’t know what this is that’s covered up. Is it a tub? 
Tumblr media
This would be a garage/workshop. A most unusual house.

Coronation Hall (1911). A rather odd former church hall in the short lived "Arts & Crafts Style", commemorating the coronation of King George V. Originally the church hall for St. Enoch's Presbyterian Church (1865), which has long since been demolished to make way for housing. Now a privately owned hall-for-hire. Heritage Listed. Newtown.
