I thought you were right about the linoleum. But if you follow the link OP posted in the comments you can see the photo in better quality. I’m afraid it does look like carpet to me.
I was hoping it wasn’t carpet, but I think it’s durable textured carpet. gocarpetcleaningatlanta.com/about-textured-carpet…There are better photos of the pool area in this article: realtor.com/…/erickson-home-midcentury-minnesota-… This house intrigues me. I love it but also don’t. Also, per the article, the current owner has never filled the pool, so the agent says the condition and functionality of it are uncertain.
It’s a very interesting choice but some part of me was incredibly envious when I saw the first picture of a fucking brook running under the house in the middle of a forest. But then I got to the next pictures and of course they completely ruined it.
How the fuck are you supposed to heat that thing? It's designed like a heat sync, is all open plan and windows, and looks to be insulated with corrugated iron.
Built in 1959, no surprise. Probably thought they'd be able to start phase 3 and go nuclear powered within the decade.
But hey, on the plus side there's a brook running through the foundations.
I love like 90% of this house and other than the pool, everything I don’t like could be easily changed. Now to find $600,000 and a desire to live in Duluth. I think the money would be easier.
I’d love to live in it, but I’d probably hate to own it. There’s a few pictures from below and you can see some of the metal on the bottom is rusting out. I’m sure this thing needs some serious maintenance, not including the indoor pool thing.
