Good dog included in the price.
Sold!
How much for just the dog?
Where is the alcohol cabinet
Any cabinet, they’re all for alcohol!

I like the chandelier, is it possible to have all three bulbs on at the same time?
Probably yes, although a lot of cheapskates will unscrew some of them when not in use to save energy.
I don’t think bulbs use a whole lot of energy these days. A 10W LED bulb would cost $14 per year to run constantly (US pricing). An old 60W bulb would be $83 per year in comparison.
Math:
LED bulb power = 10W
Electricity cost in US = $0.161 per kWh
Running 1 bulb 24 hrs a day = 0.24kWh
**Price per day = $0.038
Price per year = $14, running 1 bulb constantly**
Huh, that’s actually more expensive than I’d have thought for a single bulb, even taking into account that you’d probably only be running it for a quarter of the time
I feel like individually every item in this room looks nice but when it’s all shoved together like this it’s sure…intense.
Post-soviet maximalism is a thing, apparently.
There’s a rug on the wall. I didn’t think they know what a tapestry is.
Wall rugs are hung for two reasons:
-
Insulation, both for temperature and sound, back when other insulating materials were unavailable.
-
If a rug is particularly expensive, they are hung to prevent them from getting dirty, especially if the owner’s feet get dirty from farmwork.
-
Wall rugs are a slav thing
Walls made of rugs are a nomad thing.
There were a fair amount of formerly nomadic people in the Soviet Union and I’m guessing there was some cultural exchange
VGH the nomad spirit
But I bet the acoustics are amazing
the soviet apartments typically had cinderblock walls with no insulation and drafty mortar gaps. the heating systems were centralized boilers which usually were not operational/operating.
Soundproofing and insulation.
I looked at it again and I don’t know what to say…
It’s literally all moldy. At least that’s what those sofas look like. (we had some similar sofa looking similar to this and just pzr a blanket over it to make it liik nicer)
Looks like the house of one of those rich Russians that live pretty much everywhere in my neighborhood lol.
I have to be honest and I think I just out and out like it. It’s mixed patterns are rather chaotic, but I love the attempts at extravagance. I’d love that front room, compared to my dull rental one.
You ever go through a Russian amateur porn phase and remember all the fine rugs hanging above the beds?
Gonna muffle the sex sounds somehow, grandma’s sleeping behind that wall.
The contact details belong to a real estate agent, so I think I am not breaking rule #7, but I will blur them out of any future pictures just in case.
I feel like I remember this house and my grandma taking me there. This is a weird experience for me
You are not in this alone.
I feel like you could kill several fallout ghouls and the meat piles would just blend in.
