Found by Kandi, whose theory is that the designer of this home is a big fan of Japanese game shows:

For you action / adventure fans

Yes, it’s nice to see what a house looks like by day — but isn’t it more interesting to see what it looks like when you’re wearing night-vision goggles? (Found by Melissa.)

It's Christmas in July!

Thank you to Stacey for sending me this listing. She actually went to see the house (these photos work!) and described the house as “fantastic.”

The American Heritage Dictionary has this note in its definition of “fantastic”: “Fantastic describes what seems to have slight relation to the real world because of its strangeness or extravagance: fantastic imaginary beasts such as the unicorn.” I’m sure that’s not the usage Stacey meant. Um, right, Stacey?

Solves the whole "WHICH cabinet?" problem

Jul. 31, 2008

This house — cheap, cheap, cheap! — was found by Kandi, who writes: “We were going to get rid of all the cabinets, but then there would be no place for the range hood…” (She also points out that they have only one interior photo, and this is what they chose.)

"Pick up this gem, dust it off, add polish and it will shine."

“Dust it off”? Sure! A quick go-round with a Swiffer, that’s all this house needs. (Found by Lauren — thank you!)

A well-defended house

“Don’t mind the clutter inside,” says Kandi, who found this…

“You’ll be enjoying the outdoor views of the missile range!”

Don't break the house! By Milton Bradley

If I lived here, I would paint it to look like it was made out of Lego. No, wait! It reminds me more of this:

To be fair (boo, hiss) there’s nothing wrong with the photo. It’s the house that’s so… intriguing. Thank you, Matt, for finding it.
