Haven't listened to the radio in about 12 years. It's all iPod for me.
Definately closest to porn.
Holy cow – just the sun room is amazing. I wish there were pics of the kitchen and bathrooms, though…
I want one!
Seriously, I don’t understand why anyone would want to sell that house.
The thing is that, even if I could afford to buy it, I would never be able to furnish it that well. Hell, I’d pay $3 million, but they’d have to leave everything in the house.
But great house in great location. Probably will go for close to asking price. Seeing this for under $3M, I revoke any support I voiced for last week’s $5M home.
Sorry, I noticed that in the description of amenities, there’s no listing for a secret passageway. I can’t get behind this house without a secret passageway.
Its nice. The big sofa jacked up on chains in the sunroom is weird. Not sure why they didn’t just buy a porch swing.
Without kitchen photos, I really can’t decide if its a good deal or not. Previous house porn editions have definitely been lacking in the kitchen department.
I want to like it, with all its original detail and whatnot. But it’s just sort of stodgy. It might still be worth the price, but for my 2 cents… meh.
Plus, the floorplan shows that the kitchen is teeny-tiny. Is that why there are no photos? I guess if you live in this house, you have a full-time cook, and don’t care about a kitchen that’s big enough to entertain in. (‘Cause you know the party *always* ends up in the kitchen.)
Your neighbor would be former Washington Post managing editor Bob Kaiser.
Wow! Just wow! I’ll even ignore the ghastly wallpaper borders and just say WOW!
damn! i need myself a sugardaddy!
Looks like the board game Clue. “Col. Mustard in the Billiard Room with the candlestick!”
Yeah, parts of it are definitely stodgy, a bit 70s. Reminds me of the O Street mansion. Other parts are really nice. When you do these, you should put what your minimum annual income has to be to afford to live there.
