This $400,000 House Being Sold In Texas Might Be The Weirdest House You’ve Seen Yet
They say to each their own, which is why as respectable adults we should not judge other’s choices. But you’ve got to admit – some things are so ugly they have no business being out there and deserve to be roasted online. That’s what happened to these (probably) nice people who were just looking to sell their house online. However, due to the sometimes harsh Internet culture, things took a different turn, and now everyone and their mother now knows about this ugly house in Texas and we think, that you should, too.

This seemingly nice house in Texas was put up for sale for $400,000

The description for it seems rather mundane: “Large 4 Br/2 Ba Ranch style home in Leisurewoods. Kitchen and walls painted custom by owner. Detached converted garage, detached office, pool, green room. Large living room/den, and formal dining plus breakfast nook. Furniture is negotiable. Huge lot with mature trees. Historical Texans burial plot in [the] front yard. One of a kind, artistic home with lots of great features.” However, we’ll be honest – the historical Texans burial plot in the front yard has us creeped out just a bit.
As you move to the living room, you feel as if you’ve fallen down a rabbit hole

Pink, so much pink everywhere we swear we can almost taste cotton candy just looking at this home decor. Also, do you think the sofa was put here just for decorative purposes? Judging from the number of cushions put on it, it certainly doesn’t seem to be inviting anyone to sit down and relax on it.
A rabbit hole that is full of floral patterns

This design idea hurts our eyes just a little bit. A painfully overwhelming amount of porcelain figurines, paintings, and drawings that are making us dizzy.
Even though the look of the living room is toned down a bit, it continues with the busy theme of the interior

Let’s be honest – this crappy design looks like the Laura Ashley catalog was chewed up and vomited all over the place. Oh, you said you like decorative cushions? We’ve got loads of them! Plant lover? We’ve got plants on all of the three tables, a dresser, and even the walls.
The other corner of the room is just as decorative and is full of carpets, lamps, and plants

This interior design is the ultimate dream for a hoarder with a touch of OCD – there are so many things in here it’s hard to breathe just from looking at it. However, all the figurines, lamps, flowers, candles, and plants are all placed strategically and lined up neatly.
The kitchen is a prime example of how far the hobby for decoupage can go

There are so many odd features with this home idea, we’re not even sure where to begin. To not get overwhelmed, let’s focus on the fridge first. Have you ever seen a decoupaged fridge? Well, now you have. And there’s even a nice cabbage for you on the stove that goes perfectly with motifs on the fridge.
And it went really far, way too far if you ask us

Have you noticed the tassels dangling down from the drawers? They certainly add that je ne sais quoi to an almost plain-looking kitchen. If it wasn’t for the tassels, the place would definitely lose part of its charm. Luckily, we also have a lot of decoupage going on here and even a leopard fur-patterned lamp to go with a little leopard-y box.
Luckily, the owners spared the dishwasher – but you could decoupage that later too

But wait – there are more bad designs! In case the kitchen is not enough decorative for you, the owners of the house put up some decoupaged plates right by the ceiling so that when you microwave your chicken nuggets you can stare at the beautiful flower compositions.
The master bedroom is equally as impressive as the rest of the house

What else would you expect? Well, certainly not a bunny-shaped bedside table lamp, that’s for sure! It really brings out the pinkness of the drapes and beauty of the paintings with religious scenes.
But we saved the best thing for last, so take a look at the master bathroom

Isn’t it marvelous? The interior is so well thought-out, even the curtains go with the hand towels. Of course, let us not forget the heart-patterned wallpaper and a scribble above the mirror, that says “faith,” so you won’t forget what it’s all about when you brush your teeth half-awake on a dreadful Monday morning.
People on the internet had a lot to say, as usual

Share on FacebookI feel like this article is kind of ... mean? Why would you call someone's home ugly? Just because you don't like it? Noone's making you live there. To me it feels like the owner put a lot of love into this house. Whatever that looks like to strangers is inconsequential.
I actually like the kitchen, the decoupage fridge gave me an idea for my own. Just remove the clutter and change the curtains around the house and I would move in. People nowadays are to chicken to use colour and patterns, i'm not.
I agree! I could do without the rest (not a fan of dusty rose) but really like the decoupaged kitchen.
Load More Replies...Declaring someone else's style as ugly is really a highly subjective judgement. There is nothinh inherently amiss in this house. Everything is tidy and in order, there is clearly a proper place for every thing. There is a unifying color scheme for most of the decor. And I would not be surprised to find unifying themes and stories expressed in the pictures, as well. This home is a classic example of "Country" style decorating, a decor style that has been popular throughout the US for decades. Some folks don't like this style, but that doesn't make it objectively ugly.
Yes but in terms of its resale value it is a nightmare. The whole place would have to be striped and repainted. A big job. When I was looking to buy a flat I saw one whoch was decorated similar to this except is was green. Really puts you off even considering it
Load More Replies...What people need to realize is that you are buying the house, not the furniture. Sure the kitchen/bathroom cabinets would need to be painted but aside from that, if you look at the rooms, (not the furniture) the house is quite decent overall. A house decorated like this tends to sell cheaply due to the fact that people cannot look past the furniture/decorations (which will be taken away before you move in) and see the potential that is literally a couple gallons of paint away. A neighbor of mine's whole house was decorated on the inside in Christmas style. Literally everything. When they sold the house, the house was listed with all of the decorations in place and the new owners got it for an absolute steal since most people would not consider it after seeing all of the Xmas stuff. When the old owners left, they took all of the Xmas stuff with them and it was a very nice house. The new owners put it back on the market and made almost double immediately.
A good real estate agent would tell them to paint it white and put away the frou frou. People buy houses for all kinds of weird reasons. I know of one that sold because the front door was wide enough for the couch to get through. The rest of the house was falling apart, but the (half worn out) couch fit.
