Offbeat Homes

Happy April Fools’ Day Offbeat Friends

by Jennifer Chait on April 1st, 2008

How is everyone on this first fine day of April? How am I? Well, kind of frustrated.  I’ve been looking into home buying. Sadly, I’m pretty picky. I’ve narrowed it down to some nice choices. Maybe you can help me decide.

This one is good. It’s red, my most favorite color on the planet. Plus it looks like a massive sea creature could attack it any second. That’s cool though. Jaws didn’t freak me out or anything.

Another option is if I go for something already decorated. I was looking and looking, but when I came across this home, I quit looking. 80s decor rocks. There’s not quite enough neon; but that’s an easily fixed issue. Here’s a taste. To see the entire cool 80s house you’ll have to visit Swamplot - only if you promise not to place a bid.

I love snow. What? I do so.

I like the ideas above but these next two are maybe the best. I can’t decide between them though. This first one is cool because it’s got that slick red roof, and it doesn’t look like an old school insane asylum at all.

As much as I like the white one, I’m leaning in favor of this little brown dream home.

This one is edging out the white one, mainly because it appears to have a fatty two or three car garage. That will come in handy when I get my Hummer. The only potential issue is that it’s sort of got a lot of green space? What’s that about? It does look like it has plenty of room for both Cedar and I. I’d barely have to see the kid in this house.

So… what do you think? Is the brown McMansion more me, or the 80s house, or the… Dang. This is hard. I hate house hunting.
