One would think this house was used for a season's worth of reality TV for hack interior designers. <br><br>I have no issue with modern furnishings but it requires the right context and a degree of harmony. This ranks as a complete failure.<br><br>As pointed out the good thing is this: the seller takes all their junk with them and the buyer gets by and classic house with good lines and generous rooms. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Spectacular Bid]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 7th 2007 1:24PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Contour Drive, Estate of the Day]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2007/08/07/contour-drive-estate-of-the-day/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2007/08/07/contour-drive-estate-of-the-day/</guid><description><![CDATA[I agree with the previous poster and also wondered why they had a noose in the front hall.
