How NOT to decorate one's home.
I'm all for historically correct restorations but I draw the line at accumulations of tasteless reproductions,one look at the real estate agent tells you all you need to know...................

 What the hell do you you call that kind of mental condition???? No wonder they want to move, what garbage! They should sell that house along with that ornate Aribic Benz to the Liberace museum. YUCK!

the house is very nice.
too cluttered inside for my taste! kindof garish too. is that a mullet on the realtor? the garage was sorely neglected! looks like carriage house that has had the top floor burned off. tom w

If Liberace were a giant piece of furniture and he exploded (like Mr. Creosote in The Meaning of Life), then I imagine the fallout/splatter, would look like the interior contents of that house.

Actually, according to the ad only the bricks were built by slaves. I assume, however that the rest of the house was equally built by slaves. I don't think that the house is all that nice. The back porch sucks, the garage (or is that the slaves' quarters) looks like it is falling down. the chain link fence does NOTHING for the house. The interior (not even taking into consideration the decorations) is not all that hot either. Here in So. California someone would buy the house, tear it down and build a MacMansion in its place.
