What's happening inside this Iowa house for sale? Well, it's an awful lot ...
Yes, houses can have personality and charisma — and one for sale in Des Moines, Iowa, manages to possess a boat load of both.
The three-bedroom, two-bathroom home is a fairly large one — listed for $115,000 — with a lot of good bones. The bright red door invites you inside the home filled with vibrant colors and eclectic collections throughout. It makes you ponder: did some extremely cool grandmas set up church camp inside and never leave?
'The screened in front porch welcomes you to a large main floor entertaining space includes a formal parlor, dining room, full bathroom and a sunroom/4th bedroom,' the listing on Zillow says.
'Three nice sized bedrooms and a full bathroom upstairs provide a quiet retreat. A back screened in patio leads to a large fenced yard with tuck under garage parking for bicycles, toys, lawn equipment or motorcycles.'
The popular real estate Facebook page, Zillow Gone Wild, even got in on the fun.
'On today's episode of You Never Know What's going On Inside A Home. This Des Moines home was owned by a someone who would describe herself as a 'fancy motorcycle lady with excellent taste,'' the caption said in a June 4 Facebook post. The Zillow Gone Wild page is known for highlighting unique houses all over the real estate market.
People either were fascinated by the residence — or confused.
'I can smell the dust and musty old perfume from here…' one person said.
'Did I spot 1,263 different floorings?' another asked.
'ET could literally hide in plain sight in any room of that house,' someone joked.
The listing is held by Meghan O'Brien with Realty ONE Group.
