What is it about horses that seems to inspire these horse shrines?
This is not the first horse shrine we’ve seen on Looney Listing.
The rest of the house is relatively normal. I mean, as normal as you would expect for a $7 million listing.
That’s quite a bit of green.
I will admit to feeling an inkling of envy for their outdoor grill / party space.
Having a million dollars to spend fixing up a place you’re going to sell. Yeah… I wonder what that’s like. (O_o)
About the horse shrine… Horses can be obsession inducing, so not surprising people would include them in the decor as one would religious images in a more traditional place of worship. (And I bet they “tithe” way more than 10% of their income to the horses, too.)
The only recurring elements I don’t care for in this otherwise lovely home are the curly-q flourishes everywhere – in the sconces, chandeliers, wrought iron stair rail, and even in the crown moldings (luckily, high ceilings keep them from being overbearing). Also not sure about the monochromatic backdrop in some rooms (Pics 3, 13, 22). It’s a soothing effect; just not sure I’d want it in so many rooms. Speaking of color, about the “quite a bit of green” comment, Marty… And your point is? Honestly, one can never have too much green. ;)
I love the high ceiling-ed hallway with clerestory windows in Pic 9, and the pool area is also nice, especially the view! Looks like a fantastic locale to live.
