OH HEY WAIT WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS, A SEX SWING?
OH MY GOD IT’S A SEX ROOM!
GOOD GOD…
THERE IS A STRAIGHT-UP SEX DUNGEON IN THE BASEMENT.
SJFKDJFKSLDDSS
Yes, it’s a fucking sex house. The 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath home just went on the market, and yes, the furniture — sex swing and all — is included in the $750,000 listing price.
“Total suburban beautiful home,” the listing’s realtor Melissa Leonard told BuzzFeed News. “But the twist is it has this sex oasis in the basement.”
According to Leonard, the owner lived there with his family for years, until his wife died and he moved with his family to Philadelphia. In the meantime, he set up the house as an Airbnb to rent out over the last few months.
The Airbnb listing is titled “Maison XS – Just Be You” and has photos of the “underground adult room” with moody lighting. The Airbnb rents for $750 per night (yes, there is also a $250 cleaning fee, which seems exceedingly reasonable).
Maple Glen, where the home is located, is a sleepy suburb of Philadelphia with good schools and fewer than 10,000 residents. The sex house is located on a private street with just two other neighbors. Leonard is not sure what the neighbors think of the sex house, or if they know at all.
The home listing went viral on social media within hours of showing up on real estate site Redfin. Leonard is delighted by the attention and hoping for a buyer who sees a unique opportunity. “The big question I get from other realtors is, ‘How did you keep a straight face?'” she said.
UPDATE:
The mystery of how the neighbors feel has been resolved. In an interview with Slate, realtor Melissa Leonard was interrupted by an angry neighbor. Slate’s Dan Kois, on the other end of the phone, overheard this:
Cue the creepy music: Stephen King’s house in Bangor, ME, is now vacant.
After 37 years of living in this small Maine city, the literal King of horror novels is decamping elsewhere.
Apparently, he’s been spending more time at his summer home in Center Lovell, ME, a lake region near the New Hampshire border, and catching the Sunshine State’s rays in Casey Key, FL.
A brief history of Stephen King’s house | Loungtastic
According to an essay King wrote for the Bangor Historical Society, he and his wife, Tabitha, moved to Bangor in 1979, choosing it over larger Portland, two hours south, because they fell in love with the house, the tree-lined street, and the fact that their kids could walk to school. Their kids were less enamored of the place at first (King’s eldest son believed there were ghosts in the turrets).
The area afforded useful fodder for several of King’s most famous works—including “It,” which he wrote there and was published in 1986. In fact, Derry, the fictional town in “It,” was based on Bangor. King once wrote that “any native of this city will recognize [Derry] almost at once as Bangor.”
Indeed, many real-life places in Bangor, including the Thomas Hill Standpipe and the Kenduskeag Stream canals, appear in “It” and other novels, including “Insomnia,” “Dreamcatcher,” “11/22/63,” and others. For an aspiring novelist, there’s nothing more scintillating than sleeping in a famous writer’s former home. Scott Turow—acclaimed author of 11 novels and three nonfiction titles—once lived in this 10,800-square-foot manse in Glencoe, IL, 25 miles north of Chicago.
It recently sold for $5.15 million after nearly two months on the market. Turow owned the home from 2001 to 2009, according to Crain’s Chicago Business.
Listed with Marlene Rubenstein of Baird & Warner Highland Park for $5.5 million, the modern home was built in 1997 and designed by Tony Grunsfeld. Sitting on the shores of Lake Michigan, the five-bedroom home is packed with luxe amenities.

There’s also a library (of course) with built-in shelving and wall paneling plus a fireplace to keep things cozy. When it’s time to buckle down and go to work, the owner can retreat to a stellar home office.
Nearly every room features fabulous views of Lake Michigan, and the property comes with 133 feet of private beach.
A four-car garage means there’s ample room for vehicles and other toys—like, say, a boat. The master suite is on the first floor and features his-and-her dressing rooms, a walk-in closet, and access to the patio.
Three en suite bedrooms are located on the second floor.
R Is for Reduction: Sue Grafton’s Montecito Mansion Gets a Price Cut | Loungtastic
Sue Grafton, beloved author of best-selling mysteries, was known for weaving an intriguing tale. The late writer also managed to whip up an intriguing home.
She and husband Steve Humphrey designed a beautiful mansion on a hill in Montecito, CA. It’s listed with a new price of $6,999,000, after going on the market earlier this year with an $8.5 million price tag.
The five-bedroom, 5.5-bath home was completed in 2010. Grafton, who also spent time in her native Kentucky, where she owned another stylish estate, filled the coastal California property with a distinctive mix of SoCal cool and Southern charm. The author died in late 2017, after completing “Y is for Yesterday,” her last novel in the series.

Elegant and expansive porches with lattice railings wrap much of the exterior. They’re the perfect place for rocking chairs, swings, and tall glasses of sweet tea. There’s even a fireplace on the front porch for those chilly coastal nights.
There are three more fireplaces inside, in the formal living room, formal dining room, and master suite.
The spacious master suite also features French doors opening to a balcony with a view of the hills and the Pacific Ocean beyond. The luxurious marble bathroom comes with a soaking tub, separate shower, and dual sinks.
As you would expect from a prolific writer, there are plenty of built-in bookcases, as well as reading nooks situated to take advantage of the sunlight coming in from large windows.
There’s also plenty of room for cookbooks in the chef’s kitchen with its double islands, marble countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and large pantry.
Outdoors, walking paths wind past ponds and fountains under mature oak trees for which the area is famous. A long, gated driveway is lined with specimen fruit and other ornamental trees.
It’s easy to see how the lovely setting informed her lead character, private investigator Kinsey Millhone, whom Grafton based in Santa Teresa, a fictionalized version of Santa Barbara.
