Climb Real Estate Sales Agent Michelle Stephens, who put out the listing last week, told Yahoo Finance that the reason why she didn’t “dress the place up” was because she wanted to be “more transparent — they need to know what they’re buying.”It's not a total dump. The full listing has 30 photos. The basement is unfinished, the yard is primeval, but the San Francisco house does have locationlocationlocation.
Stephens added: “There’s only so much lipstick you can put on the pig. And it just didn’t make sense. It’s visceral too, because you get to the property and there’s an actual aroma as well. Years of not cleaning up kitchen grease has really impacted the property.”The tenants had moved out a year ago and insisted on the million-dollar price tag.

they left the stove, so that's good!

My first house looked a lot like that. In fact, I later UPGRADED to a stove like that (I still miss that stove). It took a lot of old-fashioned chemicals and elbow grease, but it cleaned up nicely. But that house only cost $23,000. The one in the post, well, the other rooms and the exterior look nice. If you can spend a million bucks on property, you can afford to have the kitchen remodeled.
ReplyDeleteFunny how we're all here in the comment thread to talk about that highly desirable stove!
ReplyDeleteAre those warming drawers under the burners? Or just utensil storage drawers?
Deletethe ones on the right could be stove and broiler underneath? with two pots and pans storage areas on the left?

'stove' s/b 'oven', but you knew that.
