The view and the outside yes, the interior no no no.

Same - too much beige and brown for my taste.

Also, too many steps for my aging knees - I need gentle sloping ramps and stair lifts!

But but but ... it has an elevator.
It's right in the middle of this pic.
Plus it has that sweeping sky-blue dual stairway, one for up and the other for down.

So, when do you get the keys?

 

[diamondringlover]

outside yes, inside is kind of creepy....would need a total gut job inside for me anyway

I could not see the elevator at first as it was so busy, and thought it was some kind of art display cabinet!!!

The staircases are no good to me as they are steps and I struggle with steps nowadays.

This. Is. AMAZING!

The design is so distracting that you could put a family and 3 dogs in there and not see them.You have to admire the level of commitment.

Considering the size of the property, the fridge freezer in the kitchen is TINY!

The kitchen is tiny too, which gives me the impression that not much cooking is done in the property itself.

I would rip out a few rooms and make the kitchen much bigger, with foldable dividing doors with the bar and dining room next to it etc...

See? Mixing chrome and nickel (plus others) finish hardware can work!
It just depends on the decorating style, how large the area is, and how (not) spartan the rooms are furnished.

 

[MissGotRocks]

Oh, no, so busy it makes me dizzy just looking at it! The size is so overwhelming - wonder how long it will take to sell?

All I can think of is the scene from "Friends" with Joey and the jam.... "Honey, you got a little... thing on your..."

It didn't take long for me to find this:

Asheville native Ron Rice, creator of Hawaiian Tropic suntan lotion, has died

Ron Rice, an Asheville native who grew up poor but went on to rub elbows with the rich and famous after creating Hawaiian Tropic sunscreen, has died.

$6 million for the house and another $6 million to redo the inside then I might be able to handle it.

You thinking about moving to Florida @kenny ???

 

[MamaBee]

It looks haunted inside. It would be a hard no for me! Very creepy! The view is spectacular..but it would have to be demolished..and a new house built on that spot…No wonder it’s so cheap!

 

[Dee*Jay]

Holy sh!toly... there's A LOT going on there... !

Thanks for posting that @stracci2000 - it was a fun and interesting read! I went back to the listing pictures to look for the silver-plated trash can. It's there!

 

[rainydaze]

I love that in the blindingly glam bathroom that you can barely focus your eyes on, there is an ordinary white-and-blue plastic toilet bowl brush set.

Hey @missy, can you find all the cats?

 

[ItsMainelyYou]

Well, I would answer but I'm lost and don't know if I'm in the bathroom or if one of the animals is, in fact, stalking me. I'm just not sure. I'll be talking to this nice lady over here, she doesn't say much.

 

[stracci2000]

I guess I helped that guy get rich.
We bought a lot of Hawaiian Tropic back in the day.
It smelled great, but was really only an oil mixture.
Back then, there was no such thing as sunscreen!

Hey @missy, can you find all the cats?

Yes, there are 256,329 kitties

The outdoor areas are lovely; views are great. Decor looks like a bad-taste atomic bomb went off. Makes me itchy just looking at a-a-a-all the keee-rap in there!!!

 

[RunningwithScissors]

"Taste specific" is what my mom would call it trying to be polite.

 

[Lookinagain]

I could not sleep in that house unless it was emptied out first.....

Plus it has that sweeping sky-blue dual stairway, one for up and the other for down.

Sorry Kenny. Clearly the stairs are wide enough for two way traffic. you take whichever stairs is closest to where you want to go to or from.

Heck, with a little soft jungle music with bird and jungle cat calls occasionally, most African Safari guys would feel right at home.

I hope someday to go on an African photo safari. I still would not live in this house, I love Boise too much to ever leave.

 

[Redwoods-hiker-girl]

Thanks in advance for the nightmares, @kenny!

(Kidding. Sorta.)

It didn't take long for me to find this:

Thank you. It was fun to read and to see that this gentleman made a boatload of money and was not afraid to have a lot of fun with it.

Yes, that is reasonable, and quite clever.
I also embrace thinking for myself instead, of being stuck in tradition.

"One stairway for up, and one for down" was my (apparently-failed) attempt at humor.

Well, the first couple of pics I was like “it’s ok. It’s going to fall into the ocean though sooner rather than later” and then I was like “does Kenny want like 20 of us to go in it for a vacation home lol” then I got to pic 12 and my mouth dropped open. I’m not sure I can finish lol
