It’s ugly and probably smells like Russ Brandon’s feet.

[HOUSE]

I don't like the carpeting....so no!

[Blokestradamus]

If you lot can donate money to Andy Dalton, you can sure as hell chip in so I can buy that house.

[prissythecat]

About a ~40k monthly payment assuming 20% down.     Am sure a lot of people can bid on that lol.

I don’t know what’s worse, the decor of the house or the misery of moving to Detroit.

I’ve always wondered if people who buy houses like this get mortgages, or just pay cash all at once...

[Golden Goat]

Property taxes alone are ~$150K a year. And, as mentioned, it's old and ugly AF.

[HOUSE]

HAUNTED....

 

In the middle of the night Cookie's ghost runs down the hallway

If they were going for the hotel lobby and conference room look, they nailed it.

There are a number of excellent examples if mid century architecture in that area. That is not one of them. 9.5 is ridiculous. I understand the land value, but that house is either a $2million gut job or a tear down.

[Pine Barrens Mafia]

That looks like an old person's house

[Sammy Watkins' Rib]

Hmm. Isn't there a poster on here with the handle The Ghost of Ralph Wilson?

[KD in CA]

Weird mix of styles....my wife would want another $2mm to redo everything.

 

But the property is pretty sweet.

[Sammy Watkins' Rib]

Very nice. 

 

But $9.5 million?

 

I guess they are not looking for a bidding war.

[Pine Barrens Mafia]

@Nervous Guy is that what an old person's house looks like?

 

 

[Buffalo_Gal]

Location, location, location.... butt ugly house though.  Tear down or renovation project for the rich and not-so famous.
