The gingerbread house
Well, look whose neighbourhood made Atlas Obscura.
This monstrosity lives on the block south of me. The owner keeps adding more and more kitsch to the jumble and, to my eye, slyly infringing on the houses next to him, this being a semi-detached. Also he keeps an outdoor radio playing all day. And, not to be all yuppie-home-owner-mind, I have to wonder who will buy this thing once he's gone? Houses here now go for a million plus (mine will finance my retirement home, come the day) but there's a limit to what location, location, and location will bring.
Ah well. Not my problem.
