What an interesting property. It's so unique. There are 3 residences, plus several outbuildings. The 1928 build in Brookhaven, NY has a total of 7bds, 6ba, 4,000 sq ft, on 3 acres of land, $1.9m. It needs work, but the potential is amazing.

Aside from the unique main house, there are 2 other residences. This one has a screened porch on the back.

And, this is a little ranch style house.

The building on the left has a cool roof. Outbuildings include little sea shacks that need restoration.

How cute is this little building?

There are so many possibilities.

There are buildings everywhere, it's like a little village.

Look at this little place.

And, this is a big greenhouse.

The main house has its own greenhouse on the side.

I love homes that are built of recycled architectural salvage.

They're so interesting and unique. Here's a laundry room.

They've got some stairs here.

And, a small ladder here, going up to a lofted area under a glass roof.

The kitchen's pretty nice.

It features a gothic church window.

I would bet that a lot of the building material was free.

Lots of built-ins and it looks like they left that nice desk, too.

Whoever did the drywall seemed to put it up neatly, fitting the salvaged pieces into the design.

Bedroom on the upper level.

Nice terrace.

Here's an old foot bridge.

Looks like the entrance to the property.

Water feature on the property.

3 acres. That's Belport Bay in the distance. it's right on the borderline of the Wertheim National Wildlife Refuge and near Southaven County Park.

NOOOOOOOOO! Why did they buy this gorgeous, 6bd, 4ba, colorful 5,340 sq ft, Hood River, OR home for $1,964,700 and do THIS:

OMG, let's revisit what it USED to look like before these charlatans bought it.

I could cry. It was so delightful.

There was a colorful, bright, dining room.

And, I wonder what they did w/that stove.

The kitchen had aisles of cabinetry with colorful cats capping the ends.

Love this room.

Look at the 2nd fl. addition they did.

Fabulous.

I don't even know if any of these architectural features remain.

Such lovely glass rooms.

So many light, sunny rooms with windows for great views.

Lots of built-in shelving in the large primary bedroom.

The home has shelves galore, which would've been perfect for an avid reader or someone with an extensive collection to display.

There is a real library, too. Look at the stacks.

This looks like a walk-in closet. Very elegant.

Look at the tile in this bath.

All of the bedrooms have windows w/beautiful views.

There was a home gym in the lower level, plus a rec room.

A colorful gazebo stood on the garage roof.

Delightful deck facing the Columbia River.

The evolution- When it was built in 1920, then it was renovated and colorful, and now, the latest reno in dark gray & brown.
