I guess it isn't exactly close in. But still. Something not quite right there, beyond the yellow kitchen (which is not ideal but I could deal y'know)

Yerac is right. The high property taxes in NYS depress asking prices. Same thing in New Jersey I hear. Not so much in Connecticut (where I used to live).

yeah, like my old boss paid basically the same price for her mcmansion in scarsdale as i got for my super shitty trump sr rowhouse in brooklyn.

and tarrytown is cute but it is more village-y, not a lot going on. and the metro-north doesn't seem within walking distance.

Yerac, Thursday, 14 May 2020 19:18 (three years ago) link

i like the house and the yellow (and the potfiller above the stove!), but yeah i would not live in it. beautiful location, though. property taxes are the worst. i am so often thinking of what an expensive house i could live in in another county just because i'd be paying less than a third of the taxes i pay now.

oh wait it's a 30 minute walk. not that bad.

Maybe those of us who like it can pool our money and all live in it together? Great deal like that won't last!

longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Thursday, 14 May 2020 19:48 (three years ago) link

sure, i will pay $1000

forensic plumber (harbl), Thursday, 14 May 2020 20:06 (three years ago) link

nooo, let's pool money for one of those palm springs mcm motels. there will be at least 10 rooms and a pool.

Yerac, Thursday, 14 May 2020 20:07 (three years ago) link

Still hoping we get the little Hastings house we put an offer on. Waiting on this dumb shit with the building inspector and the seller's contractor.

I have a yellow kitchen. It’s the perfect kitchen colour. 💛

Do you like Fun & Adventure?

Wim/Robot (doo dah), Monday, 18 May 2020 21:02 (three years ago) link

how is that all in there

ciderpress, Monday, 18 May 2020 21:07 (three years ago) link

My answer to that question today is "no."

pplains, Monday, 18 May 2020 21:08 (three years ago) link

Wonder how much of that conveys though?

"Used to have a Nostromo feel up here, but the previous owner took all the robots with him."

It looks like the Fyre Festival of luxury island houses

longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Tuesday, 19 May 2020 04:10 (three years ago) link

The listing style of that Fun & Adventure house, constantly zooming out on each photo, could not be more annoying

Island house - well, at least you'd be safely quarantined there...

Wasn't until it was animated that I noticed the patio furniture way up in the background by the house. Nice touch.

the filters these photographers use for real estate photography are out of control

Spottie, Tuesday, 19 May 2020 17:32 (three years ago) link

they layer a lot.

Yerac, Tuesday, 19 May 2020 18:02 (three years ago) link

it's HDR, right?

Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Tuesday, 19 May 2020 20:01 (three years ago) link

when the photographer who worked for c0c0r4n came to take pics of my place she said they take multiple frames of the same shot and then layer them all to get that saturation.

Yerac, Tuesday, 19 May 2020 20:36 (three years ago) link

maybe that was just her method? but it seems that certain brokers have the same style/color on their sites for all the listings.

Yerac, Tuesday, 19 May 2020 20:37 (three years ago) link

yah its mostly just extreme HDR but they do some other tricks too

Spottie, Tuesday, 19 May 2020 20:45 (three years ago) link

oh wait i had to look up hdr. for some reason i thought it was a resolution thing.

Yerac, Tuesday, 19 May 2020 20:45 (three years ago) link

yeah it's hdr

for all their money, that is a shit tv in the last pic. and a clock like a dentist waiting room.

I could imagine living on the minecraft island house but not the Versaille hotel. At least not sleeping there, and definitely not taking LSD.

thomasintrouble, Wednesday, 20 May 2020 08:42 (three years ago) link

I see the same thing over and over again. Rich people do not know how to live.

pplains, Wednesday, 20 May 2020 12:38 (three years ago) link

the towels in the bathroom annoyed me the most.

Yerac, Wednesday, 20 May 2020 13:28 (three years ago) link

Srsly having been looking non stop at listings for weeks now, the homes in the higher price ranges are way uglier than the cheaper ones on average

The French Limestone Mansion Faces A Rare Marble Fountain Imported From The Rothschild Estate In France, Contains Multiple Parquet De Versailles Floors, Boiserie Removed From Centuries-Old French Chateaus, Verre Eglomise Mirrors And Pietra Dura Floors.

Somehow capitalizing each word seems completely appropriate.

lmao it was honestly pretty tasteful for a rich person house until that point

ciderpress, Wednesday, 27 May 2020 15:35 (three years ago) link

that's a helluva twist
