TimothyHH Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Don't know if either of these have been posted before but... https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dollhouse-With-Side-Openings/273749396556?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131231084308%26meid%3D3dbb779c9ef741ddba9b4d35ae73acbe%26pid%3D100010%26rk%3D4%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D264206934088%26itm%3D273749396556&_trksid=p2047675.c100010.m2109 If this were anywhere near me my bank account would already be minus $450. There's definitely some weirdness going on with the wallpaper and the tiles and some other areas (those doorknobs!) but I don't think it would take too much work to really turn this into something grand. I don't think I'd even change the exterior at all. I wonder if the second owner cut those interior stairs in. There are some signs that that is the case. It's really all just an odd mix because on one hand it looks like someone really did some precise and detailed work but on the other hand they didn't bother with to scale wallpaper or floors. This seems like a steal at $300... https://www.ebay.com/itm/Custom-Wooden-Dollhouse-with-Furniture-and-miniatures/112674482159?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131231084308%26meid%3D342e2b8230ed4d53b6a02980d96541bb%26pid%3D100010%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D253389016489%26itm%3D112674482159&_trksid=p2047675.c100010.m2109 Looks like a RGT 1700 series with two additions. I wonder why someone would get this far along, including even cutting out the doors for the additions, and then stop. The shell kit alone would've been around $300. Someone should scoop this up because this seems like a lot of dollhouse for that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodentraiser Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Tim, that first house is an American Crafts Queen Anne Rowhouse, a house most of us would give their eyeteeth for. Back in the mid 80s, the house sold for about $300 then for just the kit. I found this the other day: https://corvallis.craigslist.org/for/d/corvallis-richard-carlson-unique/6841501449.html And there's this on eBay, the front-opening Colonial from the kit or the 3-in-one planbook: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Very-Large-WOODEN-doll-house-Federal-Period-All-custom/273768054049?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20160323102634%26meid%3D597b22107d8f48d292a4dc0f23c85d23%26pid%3D100623%26rk%3D4%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D112674482159%26itm%3D273768054049&_trksid=p2047675.c100623.m-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been thinking of doing the exterior of my Beacon Hill with gray stucco and quoins, just like this. I really like this exterior, only I think I'd make the shutters black to match the shingles on the mansard roof of the house and tower cap. I'm glad to see how it looks. I like it!

I don't know much about the company or their line, but I know when I do see them, they are rare. They are nice kits with cabinet grade plywood. Those are just the side panels and not wings. I tried to find a picture of it completed, but could not. 1 hour ago, jbnmini said: @madtex1967 Dang.....I want a reason to buy those windows!!! So you just need a little nudge? NUDGE!!!!! I have those windows and doors in my stash for a kit bash of one or two of my houses. I have found, since they have more than one of each, make an offer for the whole set at a low(er) price. Many sellers will take the offer rather than sell off piece by piece. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
