Broadmoor, Estate of the Day

Today's estate is located in Broadmoor, a gated community in Seattle which is bounded on one side by the Washington Park Arboretum. Broadmoor was developed in the 1920s on land that had been logged by the Puget Mill Company. The parcel of land was split in two, one half went to the city, which created Washington Park and the other side of the was developed into Broadmoor and its golf course. This home was built in 1930 and is a grand vintage home. Details include a large stairhall with vintage tiles and a cozy office with a castle-like dream of a fireplace. Beamed ceilings, leaded glass details, vintage fireplaces and built-in bookshelves add to the appeal. The kitchen has an Aga range that looks out onto a family room with a window seat. The brick exterior includes carved stone arches, copper downspouts and gutters. It is listed at $5.8 million.

the color captured by the camera that took these pictures is amazing, I'd be curious to find out what type it was. The mini-bar room is a great idea so the drunks have somewhere to be loud.

It's not the camera. It's Photoshop. Turn the color saturation all the way up...and there you go. A wonderland with no Alice.

It looks like HDR photos. HDR is the combination of a number of different exposures.

I thought the photos looked touched up. [shrug]
But, I do like the drunk room too. Or the idea of one.

That color saturation is like what Barbie sees when on an acid trip. Do they really think that looks good?! I have motion sickness just looking at these photos.

Too much magenta
