Real Actual Listing Photos: Bellevue Luxury Edition

Posted on June 18, 2012June 18, 2012 by The Tim

It’s time for another installment of Real Actual Listing Photos. Once a month (or so) I round up some of the most bizarre listing photos from around the Seattle area and post them here, with brief excerpts from the real actual listing description, and probably a bit of snarky commentary.

The idea for this series stems from the ongoing forum thread Detrimental Listing Photos, which is where you should post your nominations for next month’s Real Actual Listing Photos post.

This month’s theme is luxury real estate in Bellevue. All of the homes featured in today’s post have asking prices above $1.9 million.

Enough explanation. Let’s get to the photos! Click the photo to view the Real Actual Listing.

209 Northside Rd Bellevue, WA 98004“Floor plan perfect for entertaining.”

The lady in this “picture” was apparently so entertained that her face melted off. I mean, she does look pretty excited to be there, doesn’t she? Price tag: $4,249,950

9520 SE Shoreland Dr Bellevue, WA 98004“La Terrazza is a charming jewel perched on Meydenbauer Bay. Eight sets of french doors open out to terraces spanning the entire facade perfect for dinning, sunning or relaxing.”

Apparently dirty columns appeal to people with lots of money? Also, I’d like to learn more about the perfect “dinning” opportunities provided by this home. Price tag: $3,995,000

9027 NE 1st St Bellevue, WA 98004“Thoughtfully appointments include a heated 4 car garage, theater room, home gym, video surveillance, and generous living spaces.”

Snow White’s dwarves seem to have scared everyone straight out of the “thoughtfully appointment” theater. Can anyone tell what movie nobody’s watching in the photo? Price tag: $3,495,000

9021 NE 1st St Bellevue, WA 98004“Master suite is a beautiful sanctuary complete w/ a 5 piece master bath. This is a wonderful place to relax, enjoy & entertain your guests.”

I’m not sure that the 5 piece master bath is where I would choose to relax, enjoy, and entertain my guests. To each his own, I suppose. Price tag: $2,890,000

1209 96th Ave SE Bellevue, WA 98004“Entertain on the oversized deck with a 180 degree western views.”

Forget the deck. I’d be spending all day, every day in my ping-pong clean room. Price tag: $2,799,900

13817 NE 40 St Bellevue, WA 98005“Majestic, architecturally custom designed spectacular home. Dignified interiors…”

Wait, so $2 million and my kitchen has to double as an office? Oh yeah, that sounds really “dignified.” Price tag: $1,999,000

Let me know if you have an idea for a future “Real Actual Listing Photos” theme.
