I ran across this listing in my quest to find a new home. I like a project but this might just be too much to take on. The home is located in Nashville, TN.

The word “dated” does not do justice to what is going on here. It is like these people had a checklist of decorating trends from the late 60s/early 70s:

green and gold shag carpet? Check

reflective and/or patterned wallpaper? Check

light fixtures on chains? Check

sunken living room? Check

carpeted platform for bed? Check

yellow in every place imaginable? Check

I have to hand it to the listing agent, though. They tried to put a positive spin on things, “WOW! Have you ever seen a home like this? Come on in and continue to be amazed.”

Loveliest comment, by Land of shimp: You have to admire their commitment to the shag, every single one of those stairs is carpeted. Sweet holy Moses, vacuuming that would be taking your life into your own hands.

Get your affairs in order, it’s time to vacuum the stairs.
