Hi! Welcome to my account about weird real estate! I take submissions but make sure images are from actual real estate listings to avoid any AI fakes. (Of course real estate agencies take artistic license with their images but it's unlikely to be completely made up.)

The only pity is that we can't see what kind of furniture they'd have put in this place.

A hallway leading to a front door. The wallpaper is very bright with horizontal stripes of orange, lime green, white and black. The floor is pale orange tile and the door and ceiling are dark coloured wood. A kitchen with cabinets that are lime green with orange around the perimiter, and the sides of the cabinet are black, as is the fridge. The floor is pale orange tile.

This listing only has 8 photos but still manages to show a set of death stairs and an indication that the house is about to fall off a hill.

A modern looking home interior showing stairs with no railing that curve around and I am 100% certain I'd fall off. A very modern house made of a lot of glass and timber, but it's right near the edge of a steep drop off. It's not very high up, but still high enough to cause some damage if there were any erosion.

This castle from 1467 has an interesting history but my main takeaways are that I would not want to use that bath or try to get in or out of that bed without the chains getting in the way.

A 5 story medieval style castle that is white/grey in colour with tiny windows, set at the end of a wide gravel covered driveway. A bath made of stone blocks in a room with a curved stone ceiling and the back wall is made of wood. The bath does not look comfortable. A bedroom with a curved stone ceiling and a bed that has chains attached to either side, attached to the wooden wall. The chains look like they'd be in the way if you were getting in or out of bed.

This listing has 170 photos and I'm pretty sure halfway through I started hallucinating.

A concrete basement with a sign saying "welcome to crittertown" and it's a sectioned off area with a rickety wooden fence and a block with fake shotguns across it for play shooting, and a very creepy large stuffed fox. A door and inside is a very alarming person-sized statue of a beaver bearing its teeth A yellow room with angled doors and in the middle is a silver and blue circular structure that might be a fish tank. The ceiling is unfinished and the walls are bright yellow. An indoor area at the top of some stairs with timber flooring, fake palm trees, a row boat, and a carpet with a fake tiger pelt

Listing: It is a 3 bedroom semi-detached house

The "house":
https://www.propertypal.com/bastian-gate-gosford-castle-markethill/955745

A several story huge grey faux castle that was built in the 1800s but made to look medieval. It does not look like the average 3 bedroom semi-detached house.

I'm disappointed that there's no mention in the description of whether it comes with the baboon or the alligators.
https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/14831-Little-Tujunga-Canyon-Rd-Sylmar-CA-91342/250330666_zpid

A baboon enclosure made of chain link fencing, with a baboon inside. A sign that says Gator Crossing, it is crudely made out of wood and on a chain link fence.

This place is only weird due to the sheer scale of its wastefulness. No one needs that much empty space in their house.
https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/151378802#/?channel=RES_BUY

An absolutely gigantic closet with tan carpet and the walls surrounded by white shelves and rods for clothing, and islands in the middle with cushions for lounging and some drawers. There is a ton of empty space in it and there is no reason why there should be. A large white kitchen in a huge open plan room with white tiles. There is an inordinate amount of empty space. A gigantic bathroom clad in grey tiles, with a round standalone bath, toilet, and shower at the far end. There is a lot of empty space and the overall effect is rather soulless.

I think this might take the cake for the house with the largest number of baffling rooms. I asked myself "what the hell am I even looking at?" at least 20 times when I was looking at these photos.
https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/152006459#/?channel=RES_BUY

A bathroom entirely clad in dark marble and what appears to be a shower in the middle. The glass is reflective and the ceiling has a series of squares that are lit around the edges. It is very hard to explain and is very confusing. A hallway with stairs going up into the middle, but it looks like the floor is suspended above another floor that is glass and you can see through it. A bathroom that is entirely covered with swirly blue and white tiles and it reflects back so it looks a bit like it's an infinity bathroom, with strips of led lighting on the ceiling A room with a floor that is completely transparent, showing the floor below it.

Sometimes a house is so weird it becomes overwhelming and you don't even know where to start. The fake palms? The exterior? The bed? The confusing glass room? That's not even the tip of the iceberg.
https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/2925-Debra-Dr-Raleigh-NC-27607/133702638_zpid

An indoor pool that is very long and narrow and round at the end, with fake palm trees along either side and a triangle banner hanging down of a woman diving into a pool. The outside of a very disjointed house with a lot of glass blocks. There are parts that are curved and stick out, other parts with pointed roofs, and a porthole in the 2nd floor. A bed that, for some reason, has ropes attached to the ceiling from all 4 corners of the bed, and there is a mirror above the bed as well. The bed actually has 4 legs underneath, but at first looks like it's hanging. A room with 2 chairs that look like they belong in an office, a tiled floor, and what looks like a round stove heater. The room is otherwise empty and the wall is mirrored. There is frosted glass along one curved wall.

Whoever named this street really phoned it in that day.
