This carpet took years off my life just looking at it.
Like I'm pretty sure this is the color of the blood that Akira Kurosawa used in Ran. It's fucking haunting.

Look on the bright side, it's going to be easy to clean up after murdering the guy who made it
As an added bonus, it runs all the way down the hall and into the bathroom.
That house is so weird throughout, then the red rooms just hit like driving into a concrete wall.
I hate it but I love it. I wish I could switch between kitschy stuff like this and a less eye-stimulating/burning look at the push of a button
The house my parents bought when I was a teenager had red shag carpet. You wanna talk about horrific
The carpet and walls look like those in the den where I grew up, before we turned it into my bedroom and replaced the carpet with something more neutral brown. I was fine with the red but it was a rough shag that was in really poor shape. Then again, I suppose a good cleaning might have saved it and saved money but my mom was more the one dictating the style despite it being my room.
Looking at that picture is all I needed to know exactly how that home smells. Musty with a hint of piss.
The whole house has some interesting choices, some of which work well together and others... not so much. Most of it would have cost a lot when it was done, and seems to have been very well cared for since.
It would make a cracking movie set, and I kind of hope the new owners do something sympathetic to it and keep the better bits, though that's unlikely.
Can't really imagine who would have lived here, other than that they're probably in their late 80s now, and that they had at least three children. The ad said something which suggests the owner is a builder and that their building company built it.
