Terrific Time Capsule in Washington Is the Week’s Most Popular Home

Time capsule spotters came across a doozy this week—a riverfront residence with must-see listing photos. The well-preserved Washington home tallied a ton of clicks and coasted to the top spot as this week’s most popular home on realtor.com®.

The pristine home is filled with custom-designed interiors and vintage treasures. We’re intrigued by the perfectly preserved wallpaper, purple shag carpet, and retro tiled bathrooms. But it was a black vinyl upholstered bathroom door that left us speechless.

Behold the majesty.

Besides the throwback interiors, there’s plenty to love about this property, which is surrounded by nature and sits along the Yakima River.

On the other end of the decor spectrum, a pair of sexy Southern California homes listed by stars of the “Real Housewives” franchise grabbed your attention. Vicki Gunvalson‘s Orange County abode and Teddi Mellencamp‘s Hollywood Hills house are both over-the-top and glam to the max.

You also clicked on two particularly gorgeous renovations. The Anchorage brick estate in Ohio was given a whimsical makeover with lovely results, and a distinctive Moorish-style mansion was transformed into something spectacular.

So whether you’re a time capsule enthusiast, a fan of glam, or lover of historic homes, you’ll find something to swoon over this week.

And if you do happen to buy the time capsule house, we beg you not to change the green tile bathroom. Scroll on down for a full look at this week’s most popular homes.
