Homes to the Max

This mid-century-modern time-capsule house in Denver, Colorado just got a $48,000 price cut! It features a nearly all-original interior (save for some sensitive updates) with a kitchen with pink counters and retro appliances that feels straight out of an old sitcom;multiple pink bathrooms; stunning exposed ceilings; a fully-finished basement rumpus room; a second kitchen; a customized barbecue; and more! What’s your favorite part?

Huge thanks to the listing agent, Nic Conolly of and to for being my official Rocky Mountain Correspondent.

Come tour this untouched, 1970s time-capsule house with me! It’s in Paw Paw, Michigan, on the market at $700,000, and the second I saw this place on Zillow, I KNEW I needed to see it in person. It was built in 1976, and has somehow managed to survive all these years with all of its fabulous/funky features in tact. There are so many fabulous features — an all-original kitchen with vintage appliances; one of the most stunning bathrooms ever featured on this page; carpeted walls; and much, much more — but my favorite part is that basement rumpus room, which is a masterpiece of 1970s interior design, and a reminder of just how much character and originality weve lost in modern homes, with wildly patterned s**g carpet, wood paneled walls, a bar, and even a billiards lounge. When I heard this place was owned by the people who ran the local bowling alley, I wasn’t in the least surprised. What’s your favorite part? And — just asking for my own edification — do you guys prefer “long” tours, or having them doled out in parts? I’m asking for a friend.

Thank you for letting me tour the home!

Today, we’re touring a $9,500,000, untouched, 1990s time-capsule condo in Miami. This is the kind of listing that justifies the literal hours of screen time I dedicate to Zillow. I’m honestly shocked this is a product of the mid 1990s because it seems so, DEEPLY 1980s — lots of shiny black (and purple!) lacquer; frosted glass:mirrors(on the walls, in the ceilings, in the furniture…); sculpted carpet; multiple bars; a party room; etc. Ugh and that primary suite… This one honestly has me considering booking a flight to tour this place in person!

A few weeks ago, I got together with and Realtor to tour their their AMAZING 1970s time-capsule house, which they are in the midst of restoring. The home — which used to belong to a well-known Pl***oy photographer — has a lot going for it, but my favorite part (for obvious reasons) is the living room — with its full bar, fireplace, and built-in, stucco covered seating area which was truly unlike anything I’ve seen before — Think… an above-ground conversation pit. The whole room has a very Santorini, resort-y vibe to it (mixed in, of course, with a healthy dose of 70s futurism. Other highlights of the home include “patchwork-style” tilework;a library; kidney shaped-pool; a seriously cool breakfast bar; a double-height photo studio; and more. Thank you again to Jered and Brittani for the tour!

Today, I drove to the adorably-named Paw Paw, Michigan to tour this almost untouched 1970s time-capsule house! My full tour is coming soon, but for now here’s a preview of a few of my favorite features including the wide variety of s**g carpeting; the gorgeous vintage wallpaper; and the basement billiards lounge. A LOT more to come! Thank you to the listing agent Danielle Baker (of Re/Max hometown) for letting me tour the place — you can check out the listing at the link in my bio
