Tasteful (Disgustingly Republican Adulterous) Friends: Ronald Reagan's home for a mere $7 million.

The house, designed by architect Paul Williams (not the singer), has been updated, but much of its mid-century style remains.

Elegant and lovely. But no inside pictures. Hmmmmmm.

There are inside pictures if you click on the link.

That heinous kitchen would be a definite deal breaker for me.

This is a nice reminder that he and his cunt wife are both dead.

Praise Jesus.

I’d buy it just so I could set it on fire and burn it down on his and Nancy’s wedding anniversary.

Holy mother of god, the wallpaper!! the wallpaper!

Apparently he lived there with Jane Wyman not Nancy Davis Reagan (it helps to be able to read).

Well why didn’t you say that earlier? Moron.

OP buried the lead. Forget about Reagan:

And last year, it served as the home of Joan Crawford in “Feud,” the FX television series about the rivalry between Joan Crawford (played by Jessica Lange) and Bette Davis (played by Susan Sarandon)

I want it!!!!!

Looks like something Joan Crawford would live in.

OMG that wallpaper! Even on the ceiling. How would you be able to sleep in there?

Did Jane dump Ronnie, or what?

Very busy street.

$7 million and they can't wash the fucking windows?

Paul Williams homes are extremely coveted. He was the first African American to become architect to the stars; he also designed some major public buildings throughout Los Angeles including the LAX Theme Building.

Where’s the midcentury style? It looks like an outdated French hotel.

by Anonymousreply 16June 20, 2018 3:23 AM

As I recall, Jane did dump Ronnie--don't remember why.

Paul Williams wasn’t actually so talented. Roland Coate and Wallace Neff were much better architects

by Anonymousreply 18June 20, 2018 3:39 AM

but Paul was a better singer and songwriter.

Ugly.

by Anonymousreply 20June 20, 2018 4:05 AM

Ugly and boring, no mid century at all.

by Anonymousreply 21June 20, 2018 4:05 AM

r21, check your reading comprehension. The house was built in 1938, pre-war. Nothing mid-century about that. Mid-century houses are post-war.

by Anonymousreply 22June 20, 2018 5:10 AM

The OP claimed "mid century style remains," r22.

by Anonymousreply 23June 20, 2018 5:24 AM

I just copy-pasted the teaser text. Didn't notice the 'Feud' reference. Naughty moi!

by Anonymousreply 24June 20, 2018 5:32 AM

I like it.

by Anonymousreply 25June 20, 2018 5:33 AM

It's a lovely home and much nicer than the GE shithole he lived in with "I can take the cock and balls" Nancy.

God, that's a Realtor milking it. In the fine print it says it was owned with his first wife.

by Anonymousreply 28June 20, 2018 5:54 AM

Goddamn it, they put wallpapers on the fucking ceilings.

(I was pained by the rose damask bedroom, but nothing prepared me for the--is it a dollar bill in black and white wallpaper room?)

I am not a fan of all those fake French homes from the 30's. They are all over Hollywood and parts of Brentwood. Very dated, very cheaply built, very ugly. Most people who can afford them buy for the land, know them down and build a lot more tasteful.

And before you say new house are all Mcmansions its just not true. Unlike 80 years ago, everyone is keenly aware of resale value. The replacements tend to be pretty tastefully done regardless of style.

Reagan was trash, so were his houses.

His shitty ranch house hidden in the hills of Santa Barbara. I wonder what the Queen though when she stayed there.

She probably tried to holler an order for a burger through one of the windows.

Their son was on twitter last year begging for donations so that the Reagan Historical Foundation--or whatever it was called--could buy the entire neighborhood of Reagan's childhood home. (They already owned the home, the nearby parks, and lots of other real estate; but they wanted to buy even more of the city.) The son was whining about how important his father's legacy was and it was the least the rest of us plebs could do.

Proves he wasn’t racist!

Surely there are better angles of the ranch house in R32.

That Reagan house is a lady house. Men wouldn't be comfortable.

Christie's auction house ddisplayed a bunch of items from the Reagan collection. The Reagans had many tacky paintings and a lot of ugly monograms all over everything. A few decent items but mostly dreck.

by Anonymousreply 38June 20, 2018 12:34 PM

r34: That must have been Michael Reagan, the (adopted) son with Jane Wyman. Ron Reagan, OTOH, has ads that appear on the Rachel Maddow show for the National Organization of Atheists (or whatever the exact name is), which he ends with the truly great tagline--"not afraid of burning in hell." I love that guy. Michael Reagan, the half-brother, is a reactionary rightwing idiot.

by Anonymousreply 39June 20, 2018 9:52 PM

R39, that was him: the one that has "written" a bunch of corny books about "my father." He's such a milksop dimwit.
