I've always wanted to drywall my bed into the ceiling, just didn't have the courage.

I've never watched Hoarders but I imagine this is a mild case of it, at the very least.

Pic 13 illustrates how attractive a grease and/or piss stain on a fitted sheet can be!

R2, yeah, I wonder how bad it was BEFORE they tidied up for the real estate photographer’s visit.

You never know when Doris Day will stop by and she just loves a good powdered donut!

Does the Chewy box mean they have pets or is it just another box to store hoarded items? I hope it's the latter.

by Anonymousreply 6February 27, 2025 3:06 AM

It's all fun and games until a Midway plane crashes into it.

by Anonymousreply 7February 27, 2025 3:16 AM

Poor thing - it's an elderly person with dementia who collected things. It's not quite at the level of hoarding. All of this can be easily removed and fixed up.

Strangely - it has SOLAR PANELS?

Not in the worst neighborhood - very close to Midway airport. But not exactly a hip or fun area.

This isn't as awful as some of you say.

by Anonymousreply 8February 27, 2025 3:35 AM

Oh boy. Oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy. I bet it was all they could do to clear the pathways. They’d have had more room for boxes if they didn’t have such giant furniture.

That’s not Chicago. It’s Cicero. The best neighborhood in Cicero, but still Cicero.

And yet somehow they just RAISED the price on this!

R10 - it's not Cicero. It's south of Cicero - it's in the city of Chicago.

by Anonymousreply 12February 27, 2025 3:41 AM

R12 60804 is Cicero. If it was Chicago, the ZIP code would be 606 something.

Such *careful* cropping of the bathroom pics.

by Anonymousreply 14February 27, 2025 4:02 AM

R11 Right? That's the first thing I noticed and holy fuck yes that's hoarding! Full body shudder.

The outside is nice, at least

Is this near Lake Superior? Does it get very wet?

So many Chewy boxes. My late evil stepmother (whq died of oxy overdose) would order all sorts of things from her bed, and would never open the boxes. My alcoholic father would just pile them in the living room and drink himself into obliviion.

Right next to the yoga studio and steakhouse. I kid.

No, it is not Cicero. It's up 59th from Midway Airport.

Once upon a time, neighbors would have hounded them about the condition of their backyard.

Also, this is an area where some of the alleys can hide an18 wheeler until product disappears. I was told there was a telephone chain for neighbors whenever airport security refused a shipment.

by Anonymousreply 34February 27, 2025 3:44 PM

I am FURIOUS that these photos were taken before I could bring the last three trucks in for the staging!

It's very important to me that the new owners have the same aesthetic as I have.

Especially in case I decide to keep living there without their knowledge.

It's a sad little working class bungalow floating in a huge sea of similarly sad architecture on the wrong side of Chicago. It never aspired to be more than it is. And there has been no "sea change" in the neighborhood (or the one next to it, or the one next to that) brought about by gentrification that never happened. I don't expect there are many bright newspaper features about new, young neighbors bringing stylish changes and the rise of shops selling $4.75 artisanal donuts.

What were you expecting if the interior? Less shit, I imagine? Fewer things attached to the exposed beams of the ground floor above? Farrow & Ball paint in surprising pairings? Next year's Pantene hot colors today? A Property Brothers kitchen with Diamond®️ cabinetry and Corian®️ quartz countertops and everything Wayfair®️? Jonathon Adler kitsch?

There is no south 59th St. in Chicago. Apparently the agent doesn’t know how to enter in the address.

by Anonymousreply 41July 10, 2025 6:11 PM

Where are you seeing photos of the interior on that link?

by Anonymousreply 42July 10, 2025 6:16 PM

Maybe because it's off market, now?

Post Office designations do not have to align with city limits.

Yikes. And I see Chewy boxes—I feel sorry for the pets who have to live in this.

If that ceiling were any lower, it would be the floor.

Nothing else matters.

I had lesbian friends who lived like this. Well, not quite THIS bad but they were on the starter path to this.

One was sane but the other one just had some serious issues. Wouldn't throw anything away and every flat surface in their home was covered with junk.

by Anonymousreply 49July 10, 2025 9:16 PM

On the bright side, Cicero is just a stone's throw from avowed heterosexual Nicholas Fuentes' lovely Berwyn home.

by Anonymousreply 50July 10, 2025 9:21 PM

Do all the houses in the neighborhood sell for this cheap, or just this one?

by Anonymousreply 51July 10, 2025 9:33 PM

That’s probably about average for that area, but what they don’t tell you is is that it’s by the water treatment plant and the smell wafts over the neighborhood.
