When you are a football fan but also a vampire.
Additional pictures available on Redfin. I have to say, the dedication to the theme is truly impressive. The backyard is so on point.
The description of the house is equally impressive. Not a word about vampires. Thank you to Elizabeth in the comments for mentioning this awesome interview with the listing agent and to ModR for finding it and sending it to me with the caption of Interview with the Realtor.
It’s just so happen that a certain friend is shopping for houses in Baltimore right now and vampires are dear to her heart as she kept their company since October of 2007. So of course, I sent her the link with the following text.
“Hey, don’t buy that house! I just emailed you a link for a place that’s absolutely perfect for you!”
Her response: “Hahahahaha!”
I don’t think she appreciates my sincere efforts on her behalf.
Well, what else would expect from a Raiders fan?
Is anyone else wondering what’s down the well in the garden like me?
That bedroom got a few kinks they’ve tried to hide. Wonder what else they’re trying to hide.
It’s looks to me like it’s quite well executed, and is aesthetically kind of fascinating (though obviously *extremely* taste specific). The outside almost qualifies as “prim,” which I find hilarious, and not necessarily incongruous given some of the, ah, “thematic elements.”
Wow. If I lived next door to those vampires, I would stock up on holy water, salt and stakes–and I would have dreamcatchers, many many many of them–in all the rooms. And, lots and lots of heavy duty drapes on all the windows. You have to watch out for those pesky vampires.
WOW…..what dedication to a theme and blending two different styles so….ummmm….uhhhhh…….WOW!
I have to say the full mirroring around the bed leads to to wonder what was in the basement? I have to image something much more interesting than your typical man cave:)
Thank you for sharing!!
This home is half football fan/half vampire. If only we knew someone with a real “thing” for half-vampires. Hmmmm…
HAHAHAHA this is great. Thanks for putting a smile on my face. It’s been a day
When the personal property of the current owner is removed, it will be a seemingly well-kept house in need of some color with magnificently large rooms, although the mirrors in the bedroom kind of give me the creeps, which could just be my age talking there. All the football stuff will be gone, and the crosses on the bedroom ceiling mirrors look as if they’ll go, too. I do love the spiderweb design on the railing around the stairs and elsewhere, and I love that it’s open and very big up there, but seriously! What’s with all the mirrors? I know they give the illusion of a larger room, but how many do you really need? One bedroom, one bath, $225,000. Yeah, not a dream home. Honestly, remove the current owner’s stuff, and you have the perfect little house to live alone in, if you cook and entertain large parties. It’s very open and inviting, but unless you turn the basement into a bedroom for someone who doesn’t mind sharing a tiny bathroom with you, it’s a single person’s or a couple’s home.
Interesting, but I would not care to meet the person who did the decorating! LOL! Thanks for a good time looking at it, though. That was fun.
All we need is for Tom Cruise to buy it!!
I’m getting ready to decorate a new home. Now I feel intimidated and find all my planning to be quite pedestrian.
Thank you for the laughs
I asked our realtor once what was the oddest request he had ever received. “Oh,” he said, thinking for a minute. “Probably the guy who wanted enough property with enough woods that he could run naked through the woods every month during the full moon and not upset the neighbors.”
Me: Are you messing with me?
Realtor: Nope (he was one of those people where you could tell when he was joking, and he wasn’t joking).
Me: Did you find him a place?
Realtor: Yep, took about a year and a half, but we found it.
Me: O.o
Realtor: There’s a place that fits every person, sometimes it just takes awhile to find it.
Me: O.o
So, somewhere out there is a were living happily with their woods every full moon.
The weird carpeted black basement… the mirrors above the bed… the goth decor… clearly bdsm orgies occurred in this house
Oh dear oh dear. In need of some white paint. Or bling, or something cheery…
Anyone notice the custom brackets to the bed post? Kinky
