Disney + retro-futuristic decor meet in this time warp of a Dallas home
This amazing vintage-style piece of time capsule real estate is currently for sale in Dallas, Texas. And it has a special Disney twist! I'll let... Read more
Are you guys ready for this one? This is a good one. No! A GREAT ONE! This vintage Palm Springs home was built in 1969, and it looks like it was decorated right around that time as well AND THEN NEVER EVER CHANGED. Even though it was sold twice in the ’90s. Both buyers did the world a favor, and left this time capsule home un-changed. And I salute them with this new vintage home tour…
From the listing:
This is not your everyday home. To own this home is to have your friends want to take photos of them in it. This is THE PERFECT WEEKEND VACATION EXPERIENCE OR AN AMAZING PLACE TO CALL HOME!!
…Featuring iconic, polished terrazzo floors, custom drapes and custom furniture throughout. This is a true masterpiece time capsule. Including a den with custom bar and bar stools, and a warm glowing fireplace for those cool winter nights… and countless details and features to enhance your unforgettable Palm Springs experience whether for a weekend or every weekend.
The location in close to the Ace hotel, hiking, El Paseo, and Coachella events. Take the opportunity to own a piece of Palm Springs history!
But the bestest bestest BESTEST part!??? There’s a virtual tour!!!! You can walk through the entire majesty of this home without actually having to drive to Palm Springs. DO IT, and see how far you can get through the house without giggling. Can you beat my record of three fucking seconds?
I got a few minutes in. I lost it a bit at the really modest laundry room that BLINGED THE FUCK UP WITH THAT TOWEL BAR and overly fancy art work and relatively dumpy iron board. I also love how they evidently thought swinging doors were just not it when the house was built. Pocket doors and mirrored alcoves for everyone! I do wish we could see inside of some of the closed doors, though. I want to see what that wallpapered door in the hallway is hiding.
OMG! Those ornate (and enormous AF) towel bars kill me. Thank gawd they’re there, or I wouldn’t have known I was in a faaaaancy house. 😉
The carpet in the bathroom would absolutely have to go, though. Ew.
This is so great!
Please never stop doing these!
NO PROBLEM!!! 🙂
These pictures make my head hurt, in the best way possible.
Someone needs to buy this and then rent it out on Air BNB. I’m pretty sure that would pay the mortgage like whoa.
Ok, I took the guided virtual tour and 2/9 cracked me up. It pans out into the hallway and there’s that pseudo-Greek statue just peeking out of an alcove, like “hey girl, sup?” And it’s looking *directly at the camera*.
OMG THERE’S TWO OF THEM! And they were both staring at me. Hilarious.
I walked myself around that place, got supremely lost, a little sick to my stomach, and I might come back and do it again later! You know what really got me? I was “standing” in the Scarface tub room and I did a 360 and was like “Holy shit, there are TWO shower stalls? That’s the best idea … oh, wait, that ones for a toilet … that’s still great but not nearly as exciting as his/her shower stalls.”
Thanks for the trip!
