These amazing listing pictures, from properties for sale or sold around the world, will make your home seem less exciting by comparison.

Adelaide, Australia

It’s all very normal until you get to picture ten on the listing – a little blonde girl, hugging a teddy, peering around a door. The image sent the listing viral when it was on the market in 2020. A few property watchers agreed the eerie shot made them want to soil their trousers.

But the simple explanation would have set minds at ease.

“There’s a poster of a little girl in one of the bedrooms that appears to have created a bit of a stir…the home isn’t haunted, cursed or creepy as some media reports would have it. It is simply a poster pasted to a sliding door,” the Harcourts agent explained in the listing for the Blackwood house.

Sold for $US3.9 million ($AU6.011 million), Rallywood Farm was marketed as a world-class equestrian facility. What better way to show it off than to feature one of the four-legged track stars in the campaign.

California, US

This beachside condo is steps from swaying palms and azure water. Walk along the pristine sand to stretch your legs after a cosy night in this bedroom.

Sydney, Australia

The property doesn’t look like this anymore, undergoing a major – and very chic – renovation after it sold. In the suburb of Newtown, the state of affairs was not for the faint hearted, but the result – see the property profile here – shows that can be done with a tool belt and an imagination.

The transformation will stun.

Detroit, US

The brick house for on offer for only $US2500 ($AU3897). The second level has fire damage, and the address transacted as is. The property was built in 1953 and unfortunately was listed due to foreclosure.

The Detroit home had fire damaged to one level and price hopes far less than a secondhand car.

Kyneton, Australia

The block in regional Victoria – beautiful spa country, mind you – comes with approved plans for a Star Wars-themed home. May the force be with your offer (guiding price $1,050,000 to $1.15 million).

The Old Stone Store house straddles the US and Canadian border – as denoted by the tape down the middle of the kitchen floor. Some of the house in in Canada and the rest is in the States. Because of this, the listing advised that citizens of both countries were eligible to buy. It transacted in 2018 for $US95,000 ($AU148,000).

Washington, US

From every perspective, this angular home is unique. It is a mid-century modern property with a Palm Springs-style pool and vast outdoors spaces, playing with shapes.

Wonderful from every angle.

Queensland, Australia

Bluey is the most popular children’s’ show in the world and proudly Australian. The Heeler family listed their beloved house for sale on Domain and triggered tears among fans – of all ages – when they realised Bandit, Chilli, Bluey and Bingo could be on the move.

Not for tall people. The home appears to have been fashioned from a former garage, with mini face-level cabinetry in the kitchen pointing to the compact ceiling height.

Minnesota, US

The concrete home home on acreage is almost 20 years old. There is a hanger on the property and listing images reveal floorplans, with enormous arc-shaped living areas of lounge and dining overlooking with a kitchen with an expansive breakfast bar.
