"needing *some* TLC"

If TLC means Totally Long Construction, I agree.

Looks like a really cool potential project. Love the stone. What's the price?

I agree, it does look cool and with a lot of money could be a cost stone hobbit-y house. It's on 1/2 acre on one of the main roads into Gatesville and is priced at $46k. Would be more appealing if on a less busy road. But it's been vacant for at least a decade and has holes in the roof, it needs more than TLC.

Can't tell what's going on here, is that a garage going up? Looks like a friggin movie theater with the supports

I can neither confirm nor deny my desire to own an off the grid bunker in or around the Salado area. The already established fortifications are possibly beautiful but may need some additional landscaping to conceal their placement. There may be an offer made.

I want to power wash EVERYTHING. What's up with the ceiling texture?

Seems to me it's supposed to feel/look like you're underground.

While this caught my eye, I'd probably not want to buy a home from this seller's agent who presumably thought this was a clever marketing ploy:



Edit to add... I had to drive back around when I saw it because the first time I thought it said..."The J-Lo of Houston..."

Reminds me of the pool area at the cheap apartments my grandma used to manage

Built in 1966 and being sold by the original owners (or their heirs). Wow.

That was the old country club community in Richmond, I believe, before it was sold to make room for Del Webb and Veranda.

OMG. The carpets, wood paneling, built-ins. This house was AMAZING in 1966!!

As someone who grew up in Salado, I can't tell you how disappointed I am about only learning about this house tonight!

I didn't realize it on my first pass through the photos, but that's an Aggie's house. 12th Man Foundation sign above the pool table and an Aggie plate on display.

How can she make this claim and not have her photo show off the booty.

Seriously lady. Put up or shut up.

NGL I would totally live in that house. Lots of character (the good kind!) and seems in great shape!

If that house has good bones, wow. Drop 150k on all cosmetic upgrades and you've got a really cool house. That living room and game room with the vaulted ceilings.

Pool area could be really cool if redone.

That's a chip and jo special.

I think you're looking at more than 150 to update that house. By a not insignificant amount.

Just bring the excavator around the back to demo and redo the pool

Anyone see the Hawaiian Tropics owners home?

Also, featured by "Zillow Gone Wild" which seems like a very interesting place to browse and bring back things to this thread.

I mean, it's wacky but I was kinda on board until I hit the study and thought "just too wild" then later.......the bathtub IN the bedroom. Wow.

Take a look at this home I found on Realtor.com
30 Cheval Cir, Bellevue
$3,589,959 5beds 6baths

https://apps.realtor.com/mUAZ/9mqp703z

When you're an evil (rustic?) villain, but also love Christmas trees.

Not sure this is a what went wrong scenario but it's definitely one of the most interesting homes I've seen listed.

It's weird but I kind of like its weirdness. I have a lot of questions. Was this built this way intentionally or did they repurpose some other building?

I'd be really concerned about this wall (red line) failing.

2/10 would not buy. Interior looks like a hipster bar
