    It is an obvious someone did like Victorian style and blended with modern style, it becomes a modern Victorian style or Victorian modern style.
    Kitchen literally is considered as a smart kitchen then.
    Someone definitely was into interior design or wall paper design. they put their expertise and experiment in this house.
    They didn't like to show any of their stuffs, despite off the flashy wallpaper, they probably did have lots of guests that why they did make ppl. Busy looking at the wallpaper than looking at their stuff.
    Obvious rich ppl. Can u imagine the cost of all these doors they have in this house? How many doors were? 50 or 100?

      @@sarahstrong7174 Only pizza restaurant's delivered in the 70's & ready made was only TV dinners from the grocery store.
      The kitchen wasn't the center of attention in the 70's & everybody was normal weight and or thin. Going out to eat fancy or MacDonalds was a big deal back then.
      Wallpaper, especially how they had it with matching curtains or the shower curtain, the window seat in the kitchen matched the drapes. It was a sign of wealth & people liked to show it off. It was very important to match everything in each room in those days.
      I loved everything about that house. If I was a bazillionare I'd have it reconstructed somewhere. Oh man all the closest space! Reminds me of old episodes of Columbo. LoL

      @@annahgibbus8 Where are you from? In the U.K. we did not have pizza shops in the 70s, except maybe in a few big cities, there were some Indian & Chinese takeaways & we had fish & chip shops of course but they did not usually deliver. Then KFC did start in places but they did not deliver. If you had a really good community based pub or cafe, doing meals they might deliver to known locals but in those days far fewer pubs did food. If you wanted food delivered there was not much unless you were elderly & could get 'meals on wheels' lunches delivered. However bus services were more frequent & extensive & so you were more likely to be able to go fetch your own. Otherwise you had to rely on a friend with transport.
      I do not remember seeing TV dinners in the supermarket here till the 1980s. So it was fish fingers or sausages with baked beans & or 'Smash' instant mashed potato for us.
      I like older houses because they have more character. All the best.

    Definitely not a home for someone suffering from tapetsariaphobia (fear of wallpaper)!
    Went into detail of why I find this home so sketchy in Ethan’s video, so I won’t repeat myself. Suffice it to say the riot of florals and the over-embellishment with applied moldings indicate the current decor is an over-the-top remodel. The clincher is the truncated capitals on the pilasters surrounding the front door - never would have happened if they were original to the house.
    Oh, and although it does open cans as well, that is actually a built in food processor - one would mount a blender jar on that fitting on the bottom - quite the gadget in its day.
