    I actually kind of like the idea of using a folly as a vacation property, but with that location it’ll be completely uninsurable due to hurricane risk and low elevation.

    I kinda feel bad for whomever is selling this — it looks like it was probably their dream home.

    That first picture really does look computer rendered. I’m still not entirely sure it isn’t.

    That’s kinda impressive.

      I think they edited a picture of it in the middle of the day to have all the lights on, then they shopped that photo onto a generic sunset photo and thus the lightings all wonky like a late 90’s video game.

    Tbh the worst part is the regular house and camper next door breaking whatever chance at illusion they started with.

      Nail holes? Black mold? Functioning power outlets? Nothing a nice inch thick coat of matte white latex can’t fix!

      Fun fact, I moved into an apartment once where the landlord had painted the inside of the tub/shower combo to cover the lime scaling. You know what’s really slippery when wet, turns out? Latex paint. You know what bubbles up and chips off after a few months of being intermittantly sprayed with hot water and stepped on? Latex paint. So dumb, so pointlessly dangerous. Had to put down traction pads in my damn shower so I didn’t break my tailbone or crack my skull. And by the time I moved out, the tub was like 90 percent unpainted anymore and looked a damn mess. Dumb.

    It looks like a toilet bowl. A huge toilet bowl.

    I can absolutely say I want to live in a castle rendered in early '90s CGI. Just…probably not this specific one.
