Also what is their definition of "finished" I wonder? You know? i think for lots of people, finished means put together, forget about ANY type of real finishing at all! lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the upper-story greenhouse/orangerie. It has a Winchester House feel, no? 110% Winchester! Great post. It has a Noel Thomas feel or maybe Clell Boyce --from one angle on the end. But other parts not so much. Either inspired by or bashed into this huge creation. Wow. The listing said recent death.....Yep, it has to be haunted...If they put that in the listing it would probably sell quick!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Even haunted I don't think so. For that asking price it ought to be completely finished, probably with coffered ceilings and intarsia floors. Sorry. Maybe they're planning to sell the dollhouse to finance the funeral?

rodentraiser Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 If someone threw me a $30,000 funeral, I might even attend that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsbeth Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 It is obvious they had to keep building onto it to avoid the 1:12 scale ghosts....I don't know why they don't put that in to the auction - you are right, it would boost the price. But they'll still fall short of 30k. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved but cared for and very well done. A few spots of mystery, but charm wins. I like it too. Needs some tlc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minilover62 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 The cars also got my attention. I remembered that Gina had some of this cars on some of the houses that she made. She might have an idea. They look like the ones that come as a kit to be assembled at the hobby shops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Saw this tiny toilet on Ebay and thought it might be half scale? If it is its a cute and cheap option for a more modern half scale house. Half scalers can you check the dimensions and see if it is? 1.18inches x 0.7inches x 1.14inches. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Dollhouse-Miniature-Bathroom-Toilet-Model-DIY-Sand-Table-Landscape-Scene-ToysAgt/152977605260?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20140106155344%26meid%3D8c6f7b6042804a74bf8633ea6859e897%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D6%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D232726654476%26itm%3D152977605260&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fov Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Here's a comparison photo of four (supposedly) 1:24 toilets I took when I started on the Victorianna's master bathroom: That eBay toilet has almost the same dimensions as the third one in my photo (which is actually a little small but looks fine as long as it isn't directly next to other things that call attention to it). Since the back on the eBay toilet is proportionally lower than the one in the photo -- but the same overall height -- the seat height might actually be closer to one of the larger ones. So yeah, seems like it will work in half scale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minikelli Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I'm wondering if one of those whom posted those links is related to a guy that just told me he spent $100,000 on a dollhouse?!? Mind you when I saw pics of said dollhouse it was a poorly built Duracraft farmhouse... to say the least all I could do was laugh. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 This looks like a gorgeous faded beauty for those in the Seattle area. Needs a bit of work but not masses.. It's got hinged doors and nice crown molding.. looks well built and It's got a back part. If I lived there I'd jump on it. Somebody puleaseee get this house. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/312119409108?ul_noapp=true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
