The damage: $225,000
How many square feet? 1711 sq ft with detached storage. Others with this model in the same neighborhood have turned the storage space into a fourth bedroom.You’ll love it because: This is better than a Barbie Dream House, because it’s been designed for adult fun! And fun we’ve had with the advertising on this property. Jay Leno picked up on a print ad I ran highlighting the scrotum-shaped pool, so you could say the house is now famous.
There’s nothing left to re-design in this 1959 split-roof house if you like atomic ranch-era homes with soffit lighting and custom built-ins. You’ll instantly warm up to the elevated, peninsula fireplace. Both bathrooms have been
updated, with a spa-tub in the master and little white marble mosaic tile going all the way up the wall, and the hall
bath in a delicious color scheme of pink and black.
The floor plan has lots of open indoor living space attached right to the back patio by sliders. And there’s a very private and fun back yard. The seller is leaving her very detailed and authentically accessorized back yard Tiki bar for your pool-side entertaining.
Here comes the but: While there are many things custom to the home waiting to surprise the new owners, the moai statues collected in Easter Island that are placed around the pool don’t come with the house.
