Compact Uptown Cottage With Wild Bathroom Walls Asks $575K

This isn't your typical quaint Uptown cottage with an inviting front porch; the porch here, or much outdoor space up front, is nonexistent. But beyond the ... unique exterior there are charms, including a sunken den leading out onto a cute brick courtyard. The kitchen has marble countertops and a white tile backsplash. The rooms are a bit narrow, but we like that there are actual rooms and not the open floorplans that are becoming ubiquitous. We don't love the carpet in the large master suite, but there's a big walk-in closet. And how do you like those wild bathroom walls? The asking price for the 1,957 square-foot space is $575,000.
