I kind of hate this house.

Here's what the listing description read originally:

"Huge price reduction!!!.This residence captures the charm of sherman oaks [sic] living.Walk to all the great resturants [sic]and shopping on the bivd. [sid] Just remodeled!Large living room w/fireplace,country kitchen,master suite with romantic fireplace.Make offer!!"

We all know that "MAKE OFFER" means: "Just give me something so I can call up everybody who ever visited the house and tell them I have an offer so that they might bid against you."

Anyhoo ... here's the current listing description:

"This residence captures the charm of sherman oaks [sic] living. Walk to all the great resturants [sic] and shopping on the blvd. Walk to dixie canyon elementry. [sic]Just remodeled!Country kitchen. Large living room with fireplace.Wood floors.Master suite with romantic firteplace . [sic] Make offer!!"

Ugh. Learn to spell already, would you? And stop commanding me to make an offer. Sheesh.

What the picture doesn't show you is that there is a hideous McMansion next door. I mean, a real eyesore. Also, there are three or four different types of hardwood flooring in this house giving it that patchwork "Home Depot Close-Out Special" feeling. The kitchen? Blech. In short, this house is a major fixer and it is way way overpriced. And not like "everything is overpriced right now" more like: "step away from the crack pipe" overpriced.
