It's a very interesting choice but some part of me was incredibly envious when I saw the first picture of a fucking brook running under the house in the middle of a forest. But then I got to the next pictures and of course they completely ruined it.

Cold climate?

How the fuck are you supposed to heat that thing? It's designed like a heat sync, is all open plan and windows, and looks to be insulated with corrugated iron.

Built in 1959, no surprise. Probably thought they'd be able to start phase 3 and go nuclear powered within the decade.

But hey, on the plus side there's a brook running through the foundations.

I finally figured out how to post the link in the original description!

This looks a lot like these liminal spaces pictures… quite creepy

I fully expect the deep end to be a pit and, tied to the ladder is a rope on which dangles a basket containing lotion.

Is that shallow end over in the corner with no way to get to it?

[–] Hank@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

There are stairs leading to it.

That kitchen is amazing. It's so weird. It's like a show kitchen in the middle of nowhere in your house lmao

This has nothing to do with the house, other than the address, but I think it's rude when two cities that are so close to each other and one city has a street of prominence named for the other and the other city doesn't.

There is superior st, Duluth. But no Duluth st, superior. They are so close! It's like Kansas city and overland park!

One town over's main thoroughfare is named after my town, and my town is just lulz fuck you inbreds. And I think it's rude.

[–] Kittybeer@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Isn't Duluth on Lake Superior? I'd assume the street is named after that.

[–] Ejh3k@midwest.social 2 points 1 year ago

It is. And it's also directly next to superior, WI.

Try not to drown getting out of that pool in the shallow end....

seems like the only dirty and dank room in the house lol, looks beautiful otherwise

Astroturf maybe? Would make a little more sense than carpet.

This somehow reminds me of Arrival, the movie

Iirc, the linguistics professor lives in a similar middle-of-forest house that looks cool for 2 seconds but then you realize how awful it must be to maintain.

I always wondered what was inside this room.
