wtgWhat do you think of this house (MCM on steroids edition)
Not what you'd expect in Rolling Meadows, the little suburb next door to mine....
https://www.zillow.com/homedet...paign=zillowgonewildThe backstory:
https://www.dailyherald.com/ne...-home-sells-for-531k quote:
O'Brien is in the process of closing a Hello Vintage storefront in Oakland, California, and shifting exclusively to online retailing when she moves into the Rolling Meadows home this summer.
"I've been extremely spoiled with California's weather. But I'm looking forward to the change of seasons and cozying up in my home in winter," she said.
Steve could give her some advice about the move....

Steve MillerThat house is a real show stopper! Having recently received my latest OhioEd bill I’m not sure I want to heat it, but coming from CA and at $539K it might be worth it.
The trick to owning a house like that is to fully commit right from the start. If you tried to modernize it you’d ruin it and once you started there would be no end. Buy sheets for the round bed and brush up on James Bond movies.
Fantastic!

wtgIt is a pretty interesting house, and I absolutely agree it needs to be left as is.
Did you notice the slight charring on the wood trim that's above the fireplace?

MikhailohI love it. Real design, themes carried throughout the house.

kluursYeah - not normally my style - but I like it. Having said that, it wouldn't work for us with our art and music stuff.
