I remember that house. It did have a "Grey Gardens" vibe about it. Every once in a while you find a house where something clearly went very wrong at some point. Not that they kept things the same because they like them but because they were mentally or financially incapable of change.

Geez, this is really straying off topic. Sorry; will ramble no more.
