Well...as I said, $175 would be a good deal. But I am less inclined towards a $1200 flip. Poor little house...it needs to find the proper owner. Hey, someone correct me if I'm wrong here. Doesn't the half scale Thornhill have a straight up and down roof like the Jefferson while it's the large scale Thornhill that has the hipped roof? I thought at first this was a full scale Thornhill until I read the measurements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were two versions of the half scale Thornhill, that one that is noted here and the straight up and down roof as you describe which was called the Colonial Thornhil.

The stairs start in the front of the house - it's really a nice floor plan. Those prices are so tempting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, Valerie. I don't usually pay a whole lot of attention to half scale, so I didn't even know they made two versions of the half scale house. Note: don't anyone ask me any question about half scale houses. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1martinimomma Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Does anyone know about this house? Do you think it's worth the $90 they are asking for it?

I'd buy an Orchid for $40 and just build it to look broken down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at it closely - it is a Lafayette house (by duracraft) with Haunted styling. So, you could get the same house for a lot less and just decorate it as Haunted: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lafayette-Dura-Craft-Mansions-in-Miniature-Dollhouse-NIB/332169140522 Or as Sam said - the Arthur and Orchid are so similar, you could get one of those and do it up. For a lot less. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1martinimomma Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Wow, that's amazing you can get the Lafayette for $21 and they want $90 for the haunted house. That's kind of a no brainer. Thanks for all your advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodentraiser Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Congrats, Sam! That's a really nice house at a fantastic price! I know, Carrie, but I just really don't like the style all that much. I could have gotten that one in Portland that they were advertizing for I think $75 or $50, but I knew I just didn't like the house. I suppose I could have gotten it and resold it on eBay for a better price, but I was too lazy. Anyway, Aggie got that house and she's probably way better able to do something with it than I could have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsbeth Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 If I were in the midwest I sometimes think I could just live life driving around buying $50 dollhouses!!! Id never sell them for profit tho, so I'd need to be rich. Some great deals out there. I say if it is of interest and it is $100 or less...itsa deal! My craigslist bargains are my favorite houses ever. Thank goodness I am far from the hunting grounds of the midwest... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
