I bet there's a story behind this...

...and that it's not a cheerful one. I can't think of any happy reason why people would have photos like this in their listing.

A little privacy, guys?

Ahhh... nothing like kicking back in a nice, relaxing tub.... surrounded by photographs of people staring at you.

There's a slight chance that the kitchen needs work.

That could be a pretty stove if it were restored, though. I'm guessing it's an antique 60" O'Keefe & Merritt, although I don't know if they did hinged covers like those ones.

Oh my. Why can't all listings be like this?

(The house is no longer available. Sorry.)

Half a million bucks...

...and all this could be yours.

Ah! It has a corner.

From this photo, we learn that the house... um... has a floor. And it meets at least two of the walls, one of which has a window.

It's just a scratch.

According to the listing, this is a "Cosmetic Fixer." I can barely change a light bulb, so maybe I'm wrong, but it seems to me that once you're at the garbage-bag-on-the-nonexistent-wall stage of things you're past cosmetics.
