brick castle in Washington and the listing photos are an absolute fever dream
This 1970 Michigan ranch is basically a private summer camp
This old house on the water is basically my dream setup
They kept the soul of this 1885 Italianate instead of turning it into a boring gray box
It sits on 7 acres of land, and whoever did the work here went deep, completely updating the guts like wiring and plumbing while leaving the vibe intact.

If You Require a Waterfall
So freaking cozy for a big luxe place.
Someone built a giant brick fortress over an actual mine shaft in the Nevada desert

Love the stone choices in this Nevada house
It was built in 2005, and it looks like the designers had a massive budget and a deep obsession with rare geology.

This Flourtown townhouse has a secret elevator and a massive rooftop deck
Locals call it "The Spaceship," and once you see how it hovers over the hill, you will understand why.
You have probably seen some strange architectural experiments, but this copper condo in Guilford is something else entirely.

How about this 1860s Gothic Church?!
I spend way too much time looking at weird real estate listings, but this converted church in Cincinnati is on a whole different level. It is huge, slightly moody, and has some of the coolest design choices I have ever seen in a residential renovation.

1880s Queen Anne with beautiful woodwork
If you love old houses that haven’t been ruined by modern gray flippers, you need to see this 1880 Queen Anne in Slatington, Pennsylvania. It is sitting on Main Street for $299,900, and it still has almost all of its original character.

I can’t stop looking at this 1890 waterfront house in Connecticut
It sits right on Middle Cove, which is this quiet little offshoot of the Connecticut River, so you get all the water views without dealing with crazy boat traffic.

I am completely obsessed with the woodwork in this 1892 house
It was built by George Cook, who ran a plow company, and it has over 5,500 square feet of some of the most ridiculous woodwork you will ever see.
