I am completely in love with the chevron cupboard handles.

I like the wall-mounted refrigerator cabinets. In 1975, I went real estate shopping with my dad in Beaumont, Texas. One house we looked at had a kitchen much like that, pink appliances and all.

I kinda get the homes that have been lived in, but that first house has never been occupied. Somebody maintained it or 50 years pristine? Why?

In Detroit you get real estate porn with ridiculously low prices. You can also get an even more awesome pink kitchen. I want this thing.

The floors in that place make me feel kinda funny, like when we used to climb the rope in gym class. Also the plasterwork and the iron door handle. :drool:

I didn't even notice the slide-out table in the kitchen when I first posted it. If I ever have the kitchen in my house redone I am absolutely stealing that idea.

That's an area where a colleague of mine - looking at rented accommodation - got into a late night post-beer fight over some chicken nuggets and ended up in a police cell for the night and half the next day.

Julia Child's charming vacation home in France is for sale for $880,000 USD. I'm too short for her custom-built kitchen though, so I'm going to have to pass this one up.

Holy Crap Chris. That is within driving distance, a kind of upscale beach home, but comparable for a crap hole in Portland. There must be some kind of story there.

I got the impression the inhabitants were really into make believe-that they were very much NOT living in a suburban house in Oregon. Come home, kick off your shoes, and relax in far-away magic medieval times. All of the outside carefully concealed by stained glass.

That's an upscale beach house far removed from the suburbs. Your idea makes sense, the former owner is a mystical grifter.

If you want to live in one of the hipper parts of Detroit, and have 3/4ths of a million to spend, this might suit. Edsel Ford's sister-in-law's house up for sale in Indian Village. I am absolutely drooling over that kitchen, and the grounds are awfully nice as well.
