It’s time once again 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

For a daily dose of crazy listings from all over the world, tune into Looney Listing<\/a>, which is updated five times as a week. If you’ve got a nomination for a listing photo that should appear here, drop me a line<\/a>.<\/p>\n

No particular theme this month. Just enjoy a collection of odd listing photos found by readers and yours truly.<\/p>\n

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

\"412<\/a>“You’ll like it when you drive up, but when you look out the kitchen window and see the back yard, you’ll fall in love.”<\/p>\n

You’ll like it when you drive up, but you’ll also be blinded, so you won’t really get to appreciate the rest of the home. Found by Graham.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"1237<\/a>“Lighting, leaded prisim wndows & more by WA artisans”<\/p>\n

I wonder which Washington artisan crafts those crazy windows that glow bright yellow at dusk?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"716<\/a>“Custom Hardwood Cabinets w\/ spice & cup shelves, dividers & underlighting.”<\/p>\n

Also: drawers capable of holding silverware!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"3115<\/a>“Floating homes? Mixed use? Yacht Condominium Moorage? All of the above?”<\/p>\n

Even the listing agent doesn’t seem to know for sure what’s being sold here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"23020<\/a>“Opportunity knocks in Sammamish!”<\/p>\n

Apparently Opportunity knocks on the ceiling. Found by Beth T.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"14001<\/a>“One of a kind LOCATION!”<\/p>\n

I bet your<\/em> house doesn’t have those kinds of curves!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Let me know<\/a> if you have an idea for a future “Real Actual Listing Photos” theme, and be sure to check out Looney Listing<\/a> for listing photo amusement throughout the month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
