Football and Horror-ific Decor Clash To Create This Week’s Most Popular Home

by

Silver, black, and a healthy heaping of testosterone were the not-so-secret ingredients that made a suburban Maryland residence this week’s most popular home on realtor.com®.

And we have to confess, we love this dose of boldness in Baltimore.

The listing went viral on Twitter, as folks tried to puzzle through the decidedly creepy decor choices. Social media was split on whether the Gothic, Las Vegas Raiders-loving setup was an abomination—or an inspiration for living your very best life.

The current owner and genius behind the creation, Billy Nicholson, inherited the house from his mom, according to the Baltimore Sun. His journey to virality began with a bar out back that looks like a cemetery—and proceeded down a dark path from there.

“It’s basically my twisted imagination coming to life,” he told the paper. Now he’s moving in with his fiancée and selling the one-of-a-kind man cave.

Another distinctive vision on a much grander scale also made a repeat appearance on this week’s list. Shaquille O’Neal‘s Florida mansion is back on the market, after a previous sale fell through.

Besides those two homes, you also clicked on a $79 million penthouse in New York City, a quirky Ohio home with a replica of the Oval Office, and a place in the woods of South Carolina built to look like a medieval castle, complete with gargoyles.

We’re now ready to lower the drawbridge on all of this week’s most popular homes. Join us on a wild ride.

Price: $550,000
Why it’s here: Built in 1980 and remodeled into modern farmhouse, shiplap-shape, this charming four-bedroom home is move-in ready. Don’t miss the incredible combo mud and laundry room, wraparound front porch, and a private, fenced backyard.

Price: $16,500,000
Why it’s here: A proposed sale of Shaquille O’Neal‘s massive estate fell through.

So the Hall of Famer’s 12-bedroom, 31,000 square-foot behemoth is back up for grabs. Located in a gated community, the 4-acre property includes 700 feet of lakefront.

Features worthy of a baller include an NBA-certified basketball court, a 17-plus car showroom garage, cigar and wine room, theater, walk-in safe room, and recording studio.

Price: $79,000,000
Why it’s here: What was once described as “one of the last great unclaimed spaces in New York City” is now a penthouse worth clicking on. The Skyhouse Penthouse spans the top five floors of the Woolworth Tower and has claimed a spot among the priciest places in NYC.

The interiors were awarded the “Best Apartment of the Decade” by Interior Design Magazine in 2015. From the jaw-dropping listing photos, it’s easy to see why. A swirling, circular library plus a 408-square-foot private observatory, are just a couple of the unparalleled spaces within this luxe penthouse.
