There are two reasons why I have nothing mean to say about this listing, which was found by Beth (and also by someone who wishes to remain anonymous).

1. I’m afraid they’ll send me a mean letter, and
2. I honestly think it’s really freaking awesome. Come on! Look at it! LOOK AT IT!!!

Sorry. I might have taken a few too many allergy pills this morning (can you see the lasers shooting out of my eyes, or is that just me?). But really, I do think it’s great. I thoroughly approve of people going nuts in their own homes. Good luck to the real estate agent, but dang, if I had a spare seven million bucks (I don’t, I checked) and I wanted to live in Connecticut, I’d be moving in tomorrow.

Anyway. Because the people involved have shown themselves to be rather protective of the listing, let’s only say nice things in the comments, shall we?

Yeah, okay, it’s just a dirty carpet. Whatever. We’ve seen much, much, worse. But as mars78 pointed out — it’s a freaking SIXTEEN MILLION DOLLAR HOUSE. I can rent a steam cleaner from the grocery store up the street for twenty bucks, and my kids would pay me to let them use it (especially because we don’t have any carpets and it would be an extra exciting experience using it on the wood floors).

Is the profit margin really that teeny on real estate that they can’t afford the expense? If so, they should consider getting into a more profitable business. Like blogging. That’s where the smart money is these days. Uh-huh.
