Ugly House Photos

This Boone, North Carolina owner must have spent days decorating the kitchen just so.  Down to the most minute detail.  It’s perfect for a country museum or shabby chic store, but when selling?

She (over)decorated the bedroom too.

A snapshot in time.

Many homes were simply abandoned with furniture and belongings still in place.

Time removed most of the wallpaper.

Mold & mildew on the ceiling.

Wild wallpaper.

Minimalist design.

Tile accents complete this Tolleson, Arizona kitchen.

Going for hotdog realness.  Ketchup Red, Mustard Yellow, and Relish Green colors.

Red kitchen cabinet paint juxtaposed with hunter green & cream striped wallpaper.  The refrigerator sign reads, “Have you magnified your calling today?”

Lions and tigers wallpaper in a Hickory, North Carolina home.

Vintage bathroom.

Looks brand new.

Laundry room.  We’re taking bets how many detergent and bleach bottles can stay on that board before it breaks.

The kitchen has great views of the yard.

Who’s the fairest of them all?  This one from Phoenix?

Or owls from Poughkeepsie, New York?

Or a teardrop pattern from Florence, Arizona?

Or Southwest design from another Poughkeepsie, New York home?

Or butterflies from Sun Lakes, Arizona?

Or super shiny in Sun Lakes?

Or peacock feathers in Olean, New York?

Or flowery in Sun City West, Arizona?

Lost of potential with this Trenton, New Jersey home.

Efficiency kitchen.  No steps needed!  Just turn and pivot.  But where does the refrigerator go?

Got flooring issues?  Cover it with a rug!

Keep your expensive flooring clean by using a rug to wipe your feet.

The floor was too slippery when exiting the shower, so they made it a non-slip surface.  Problem solved!

They were getting ready to install a swimming pool.  Now the new buyer gets to pick out the decorative tile.

Here’s a delightful home for sale in The Netherlands.  Only $325,000 euros!  (about $425,000 US dollars).

This home has lots of a’peel.

Sure to appeal to buyers.

Some fresh paint is all that’s needed here.

An easy weekend project.

The sellers hope to sweep up a deal and rake in the dough.

Lots of potential.

As pretty as tulips in the Spring.

Neglected, abused, ignored.  Such is the fate of this poor dilapidated Trenton, New Jersey home.

Gourmet kitchen with pretty shelf paper used as wallpaper.

The front door and living room.  What a shame the house went to ruin.

Trashed!

HazMat suit needed to touch that filthy mattress.

What happened??!

Another view of this room.

The bathroom is the best room of the house.

Somewhere in Pennsville, New Jersey lurks a monster so hideous and despised, his only source of nutrition is picking his nose.  He is often accompanied by his evil consort, The Mad Hopper, the sinister cousin of the Easter Bunny.

He was last spotted hiding out in this home, blending in with the clutter and collections.  And dusty TV.

There sure are a lot of things to be packed up when moving (and preferably before selling).

They heard it’s a good idea to keep all records of their house.  Unfortunately, they misunderstood it.  Now they have a massive music record collection.  They forgot to dust around the computer monitor.

Colorful wallpaper pattern at the foyer.
