Omg, I'll have nightmares about that place.

hahaha - funny wording; "bring your sandblaster"!

Well, it sits on 20 acres, so it's obviously a tear down but it sure is interesting.

Can't see pics

Bossyvossy: Lucky you.

Painful. And don't you think that if there have been cats, there is probably some residual odor? Or does it just look like it smells?

A cat house. !!!!!!

I actually kind of like it as an artistic statement. I could never live in it but I think it's interesting.

I have been in a couple of houses like this. One was a house that had been converted to seven interior split levels with the front and back of the house bisected by an X shaped set of stairs that were vertigo inducing. Much of the interior had been covered with Isaiah Zagar type mosaics made of broken dishes and tiles and mirrors.

The other house had actually had very little done to the wall surfaces but was crammed with carefully arranged artwork and collections. Hundreds of thousands of items. And nine cats. But the house was incredibly clean and you could not even tell one cat lived there.

The first house was probably re-gutted and turned back into a regular house. The second one is on a tour occasionally.

It sort of looks like the kids in a very large nursery school were left unattended.

Wow, I am just imagining all the money spent at Michael's for supplies. And I'm guessing that it doesn't smell great. I enjoy all kinds of folk art and this creation is pretty cool and also disturbing.

"If you love cats this is the home for you!"

....wellllllll, I do love cats! not sure about stapling their faux carcasses (stuffed animals) to the columns though.

Oh, I can practically smell the listing through my monitor.

I love how the Realtor embraced and owned the craziness of the listing, taking extra pictures and pushing the envelope with the listing. Brilliant, really, to create a potential viral moment.

Refrigerator magnets are bad enough, but they chose to cover their stove with pictures as well. It does remind me a bit of the Watts Towers.

I would consider it a tear-down, and the price is very low. I noticed that they do not have central A/C, and it will be in the 100s next week there.

Compare it to Beatrice Wyatt's house in Ventura:

Why not spend a week with the dumpster and just clean it out down to the sheetrock? I can't see how this brings in the marginal dollar more.

Gives "crazy cat lady" a whole new meaning.

I can't make out anything either. That is one crazy house!

How funny - this must be making the rounds. Someone posted it a few days ago on my other guilty pleasure / procrastination website (a DC area parenting board.) It is truly scary.

Wow - all I can say is I love cats and that is NOT the house for me.

Yes, owner loves cats and LSD! No other way to explain this mess...

It looks to me like it was a cat shelter, i.e. a place to house rescue cats, and cats up for adoption. There don't seem to be any bedrooms or living quarters for humans.

This appears to me to be an art installation and not a residence.

Ok, so I went on a Google search looking for cat rescue in Concho (I assumed the same) , but I found another article about the house instead. It claims those most cats the owner ever had was 3.

I looked in vain for a couch or really anything meant for (sane) humans. I'm not a tough cookie and could probably go off my rocker if forced to stay there for any length of time.

I started getting a headache just looking at the pictures. I don't think I would want to step inside.

Why not spend a week with the dumpster and just clean it out down to the sheetrock?

If this is an estate, nobody has a strong vested interest to show it at it's best. I look at real estate a lot and there are houses shown that no one has lived in for some time with food in the kitchen.

My SO sold a unit that was an estate and the executor who was an attorney (there were no direct heirs, the money was going to charity) refused to even have the place cleaned (although friends of the owner volunteered to clean it out, it was a hoarder house). But it still had some contents, the windows had the manufacturer's stickers on them, the drapes were in shreds, the closet doors were hanging off.

They took pictures and posted them, the showed it dirty, and a contractor bought it as a flip. If they had spent a few thousand dollars it's doubtful they would have gotten it back.

If the assumption is that this is a tear down, or a gut rehab, there's really no point in cleaning it or prettying it up. It's obviously not going to be move in ready even if you remove all the installation art, so it's not really going to appeal to that demographic anyway. It's only going to appeal to someone who could care less what it looks like now.

$240,000 They would be lucky to get $24.00. Probably wall to wall Fleas as well.

I had to go back and take a second look. I'm having a very hard time differentiating floor from wall from counter. I've never seen such a place where it's almost impossible to tell where walls stop and ceilings start. I have no clue what room I'm actually "in" while viewing most of the pics. That must be the oddest decorative effort I've ever seen, and it's a bit sad since the article says the owner spent 10 years planning and carrying it all out. I hope it brought her joy.

20 acres in Concho is not worth 250K ... it's on of the "mountain view" lots that have, on a clear day, a view of some peaks 120 miles away.

Flat juniper scrub

Wow. That's. Fluffy.?

I see no cats.... Did you? Where could they have moved them for photos? The logistics are daunting, to think of removing the many (it appears many) cats for a short time from a house in such an isolated spot.

2500 square feet, and only 2 BR/ 1 bath? What is the rest of it? Oh, and wood stove heat. Yeah, that's a keeper.
