- that is not that bad. 5-2-2011 12:41pm
- The aqua color? 5-2-2011 12:41pm
- this 5-2-2011 12:42pm
- yes, pretty tame 5-2-2011 12:42pm
- no it's beyond horrid, but the house is a piece of shit anyway so who cares 5-2-2011 12:42pm
- it is pretty fug 5-2-2011 12:41pm
- I find that people who comment on other people's house paint color and decor are usually people who don't maintain their own homes well if at all. 5-2-2011 12:42pm
- OP - not at all - ours is very, very well kept. This one is, too. But it's bright aqua. 5-2-2011 12:43pm
- I get asked to be on "kitchen walks" and historic home tours all the time and I always politely decline. I've been on those tours myself and so many other tour takers are the type...(more) 5-2-2011 12:46pm
- And it's in freaking Newton. People will be dying to buy it. 5-2-2011 12:47pm

- that house has a LOT Of possibility, if you can look past the superficial problems 5-2-2011 12:44pm
- apparently it's only 1100 sf, though, so it's not that big and there are probably limitations on how to enlarge it since it backs up into a hill. 5-2-2011 12:48pm
- It's kind of whimsical. 5-2-2011 12:45pm
- omg lol so crazy 5-2-2011 12:45pm
- Your world is so odd to me! 5-2-2011 12:46pm
- you know me? 5-2-2011 12:46pm
- np. Anyone who would like this house is odd to me. 5-2-2011 12:47pm
- because we think an aqua striped house is not attractive? Okie Dokie 5-2-2011 12:47pm
- No, tht this qualifies as "so crazy". 5-2-2011 12:48pm
- lol, take it easy. it's a figure of speech. 5-2-2011 12:49pm
- Oh calm down. 5-2-2011 12:51pm
- lady, you are the one who is all up in arms 5-2-2011 12:52pm
- Umm, I think you're the one who needs to calm down. 5-2-2011 12:52pm

- I like it, actually. Not odd at all. 5-2-2011 12:46pm
- sweet 5-2-2011 12:46pm
- The entire house is gag worthy. 5-2-2011 12:46pm
- not everybody can afford to renovate their house every time the Times says a trend has changed. 5-2-2011 12:48pm
- Are you kidding? I can't afford it either which is why I would never buy an ugly house. I couldn't afford to make it livable. 5-2-2011 12:48pm

- JWSWT is that you? 5-2-2011 12:47pm
- wow, houses are cheap in Newton, I thought it was an expensive burb 5-2-2011 12:48pm
- that's expensive for 1100 sf. 5-2-2011 12:49pm
- np: you think that's cheap for an 1100 sq ft UGLY house? 5-2-2011 12:49pm
- it would be $800-$900K where I live (Palo Alto) 5-2-2011 12:52pm
- then palo alto is fucking insane. This is a house that hasn't been renovated since 1950. It's tiny. 5-2-2011 12:52pm
- did you look at the pics of the interior of this house? it's stuck in a time warp. 5-2-2011 12:53pm
- and someone will be thrilled to have it at the price, I would! 5-2-2011 12:55pm
- you must be rolling in it! 5-2-2011 12:57pm
- Well, it's really about buying a kid education, there's a reason it's priced so high. 5-2-2011 12:59pm
- something that small? 5-2-2011 12:57pm
- In Newton, for the schools, yes. It's probably one of the cheapest houses. It's like free private education for k-12. 5-2-2011 12:58pm
- you must be rolling in it! 5-2-2011 12:57pm
- I would love a truly unrenovated house from the 50s. I have one in Newton from the 40s, original wallpaper! It's great. 5-2-2011 12:56pm
- i am sure this house needs a lot of work done 5-2-2011 12:57pm
- so? 5-2-2011 12:58pm
- so you're not paying 525K for it in the end ah duh 5-2-2011 1:01pm
- right, but it's still a deal for the area. what's your point? My house is small and would probably sell for 750 or so. 5-2-2011 1:01pm

- that house is not so bad. 5-2-2011 12:50pm
- First of all, you sound mean. Maybe the lady had dementia. Secondly, you know that house is not awful looking and will fly into a buyer's hand in a second. 5-2-2011 12:55pm
- the lady was old, what do you expect? 5-2-2011 12:57pm
