Not only do you get to spend half a million dollars on buying it, you’ll have to figure out how and where to move a ridiculously large house. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/35-Stonehouse-Dr-Princeton-NJ-08540/39013680_zpid/

It might be cheaper to hire an architect to walk it and sketch out a new set of blueprints, rebuild it somewhere else.

If they were giving the house away it might make sense, but ya this is insane.

At first I was thinking this is a great price for a historically important home in Princeton, and you can actually get land pretty cheap a little bit north in Hunterdon County, but jeez, what would it cost to relocate and update that house?!

I think there’s a good chance that with proper structural bracing an Apache helicopter could be used to haul chunks of it to its new location yeah but you’re looking at maybe a quarter million dollars, maybe a little less if you own the construction company that’s moving it.

You would need fuck you money to afford to buy the house and move it.

I bet the whole project would be over a million. Your also have to buy land and prep it as well.

“They just do not build houses like this anymore” which is a shame, because you will have to try

Terrible Estate Agent Photos

!badrealestate@feddit.uk

Create post

Terrible photos listed by estate agents/realtors that are so bad they’re funny.

Posting guidelines.

Posts in this community must be of property (inside or out) listed for sale which contains a terrible element. “Terrible” can refer to:

  • the photo itself (finger over the lens, too far away, people in the shot, bad Photoshop, etc.)

  • the property (weird layout, questionable plumbing, unsound structure, etc.)

  • the interior (carpeted bathrooms, awful taste interiors, weird mannequins/taxidermies/art, inflatable pools indoors, etc.)

  • the actual listing itself including unusual descriptions and unrealistic pricing. However, this isn’t a community to discuss the housing market in general. This is a comedic community - let’s keep it light.

  • Photos can be sourced from anywhere and be any age, but please check they haven’t already been posted.

  • Censor any names/contact details of private individuals.

  • Mark the post NSFW if it includes nudity or sensitive content

Rules.

This community follows the rules of the feddit.uk instance and the lemmy.org code of conduct. I’ve summarised them here:

  • Be civil, remember the human.
  • No insulting or harassing other members. That includes name-calling.
  • Respect differences of opinion. Civil discussion/debate is fine, arguing is not. Criticise ideas, not people.
  • Keep unrequested/unstructured critique to a minimum.
  • Remember we have all chosen to be here voluntarily. Respect the spent time and effort people have spent creating posts in order to share something they find amusing with you.
  • Swearing in general is fine, swearing to insult another commenter isn’t.
  • No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia or any other type of bigotry.
  • No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies.
