It’s time for another installment of Real Actual Listing Photos<\/a>. 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.<\/p>\n

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

All of the homes featured in this month’s post have an open house scheduled for this coming weekend. So if you’d like to go see what they look like in person, you’re in luck!<\/p>\n

Enough explanation. Let’s get to the photos! Click the photo to view the Real Actual Listing.<\/p>\n

\"10327<\/a>“…amazing flow of space & natural light as well as modern amenities. Open, bright & light floor plan…”<\/p>\n

We mean really<\/em> bright.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"7724<\/a>“Pride of ownership is obvious.”<\/p>\n

I guess they’re just really proud of the pavers running diagonally through the back yard? Or maybe their ability to capture a lens flare from the sun?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"1111<\/a>“…floor to ceiling windows, dark bamboo floors and fun industrial interiors…”<\/p>\n

Photo shown actual size. Oddly, a few of the photos in the set are normally-sized, but most are these tiny postage stamps.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"230<\/a>“Great circular floor plan with June Cleaver’s kitchen. Hardwood floors up and Plynyl floors down.”<\/p>\n

This appears to be some sort of old-timey peep hole, but there isn’t any clue in the listing description.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"1111<\/a>“… this open loft home provides… a hip palette to create one’s own space.”<\/p>\n

The unit being sold here is #502, so I’m not really clear why they featured a picture of what appears to be Unit 603. I’m also not clear why the door appears to have three<\/em> peep holes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"2320<\/a>“Live in your very own vacation home or get away to your special pied-a-terre, nestled in the lake front village of Madison Park.”<\/p>\n

That’s right ladies & gentlemen, buy this home and we’ll throw in the door for free!<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Let me know<\/a> if you have an idea for a future “Real Actual Listing Photos” theme.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
