Velvet wallpaper in pristine condition.

Flowery wallpaper and tasseled drapes in the master bathroom.

Chandelier in one of the bedrooms.

The roof was messed up from end to end.  Here we see evidence of a roof leak with mold & mildew spores.

In the master bedroom, they built a padded & carpeted base around the bed and a lovely headboard with drapery.

Paradise Valley, Arizona is a community of high-end homes and usually rich people.  For decades it has been known as the exclusive place to live in the Phoenix metropolitan area.  As you know (e.g., the TV show “The Beverly Hillbillies”), not all rich people have good taste.  This Paradise Valley home (it sold for $742,500 a few years ago) features two rooms that will never reach the pages of House Beautiful Magazine.  The master suite is resplendent with shiny fabrics and trendy furniture.
