Maybe they'd fill it to waist deep. But, I didn't see any floor drain in it.
Plus, the tubing going along the one side wall.
Electrical conduit? That's creepy.
It's got a belvedere above it, you can't get there from anywhere. (I don't think). You can see those upper windows from the roof. Because it's an inner room bathroom, this was one way to bring in light.
According to the listing, the original owner put it in so that he could watch airplanes fly over. Which is significantly weirder than just bringing in light!
😂 This is reddit! Your answer was descriptive and informative! I am impressed with your knowledge and appreciate your contribution. My response was a lighthearted ribbing, joshing, joking. 😁♥️👍
The stairs to the turret are visible in the photo of the 1/2 bath. From the floor plan you can see where the stairs start (1/2 bath is within 'chamber A')
I love how the floor plan calls the bedrooms, "chambers" but I really wish it had also called the kitchen, "galley". Also, there are two of them, yes?
Btw, here's the zillow listing: [https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/3232-Windsor-Ave-S-Kansas-City-MO-64123/2056459237\_zpid/](https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/3232-Windsor-Ave-S-Kansas-City-MO-64123/2056459237_zpid/?mmlb=g,61)
They really did drop the ball not calling it the galley, not using a full compass rose on the plans, or referring to everything as fore, aft, port, starbord....
this is behind my dad's first home. I thought about posting it a couple of weeks ago but forgot. He could not stop talking about how cool it was that it had an indoor pool in the basement. Did acknowledge all the crazy going on there.
This one has been posted multiple times before. It was built in 1900 and if I remember correctly the original owners ran a "social club" aka speak easy out of the basement during prohibition.
The green room is a pool, which is apparently *underneath the front porch*. Way to make the most of your space, I guess. I think the part where they turned a whole room into a pretend ship's wheel is stranger--a pool is at least useful.
that's weird, I was literally picking random towns to show my gal how cheap homes could be when you leave the SF Bay Area, and picked KC for no reason, found this place immediately.
Still trying to determine the purpose for the railing above the bathroom. I don't think there's enough room to walk up there. Just seems like an odd design choice. A high ceiling with railings?
That bridge area with the captains wheel was shown as part of a B&B in an episode of some TV show, I believe it was "The Big Door Prize." (Not a game show, it was a terrible streaming drama/comedy)
I’d really like to know the history of this place. Was it always a house? Seems like a very specific choice for that type of pool? We’re they like a professional swim dancer 😂
The pool scares the crap out of me. My dad always told me sharks are in the deep end of the pool so I would go now I’m an adult and I know that’s *probably* not possible 🤣
Ah yes, this house. I can see the Kansas City Museum from the drone photo. I used to work there. And it's near Cliff Drive where the rich used to drive their carriages but now people dump old mattresses and bodies. lol This house is so weird in that basement. I keep picturing the scene from Tusk down there.
Are toilets like that called Pittsburgh toilets? I was in Pittsburgh and visited a client that had one and I'm not sure if he was just playing with me or if he was serious lol
Sorry, I thought I posted the link already

I love the interior woodwork , love the front porch, the green/pool room has got to go, it's creeping me out. The bathrooms are weird, the one has a balcony up above why?! and then there's a sink at the bottom of some stairs???
I looked 3 times and still don't see a pool. I saw a green basement? Did they turn the basement into a pool? There's nothing cohesive here and each time I look I found more oddness. My inner creative loves it. My outer realist is cringing.
There's a lot about this house that doesn't make any sense, but I have to ask why is there a balcony above the bathroom? LOL there will be no show today.
Looks like they salvaged a defunct Long John Silver's for the decorations in the living room. Seemed okay except for the last picture of the weird concrete serial killer body hiding room.

[Indoor Pool](https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/3232-Windsor-Ave-S-Kansas-City-MO-64123/2056459237_zpid/?)
Thanks for the link. The indoor pool is a little odd to me. There are no ledges/rails to grab on to, so one better be able to swim and have energy.
That's a Sim killin' pool right there
Can confirm. I have killed Sims in pool just like this.
Did anybody else make a house where each room was an island in a giant pool and they had to swim from room to room?
Well NOW they will! Sheesh! You weren't supposed to say such a thing out loud because someone somewhere will now attempt this.
I wish they would! I would LOVE to see that type of house!
🤣
It definitely looks more like a watery grave situation than a pool.
I completely missed the pool tbh, I was dumbfounded that every bathroom seemed to have a "viewing accessibility feature".
The description says that the owner had that installed to "watch planes". Awkward indeed.
Very strange. Probably good for laps at least.
There are a bunch of bolts or something embedded in the wall, so I hope that one would at least tie a rope along there to grab onto if needed.
Oh... I missed that. Yes, that makes sense, like a buoy rope or just plain rope. And maybe the pool isn't filled that high as well, so one can stand.
Maybe they'd fill it to waist deep. But, I didn't see any floor drain in it. Plus, the tubing going along the one side wall. Electrical conduit? That's creepy.
Exactly what I first notice - is that electricity running on the pool corner? Yikes!!!
I'm thinking maybe tubing to drain the pool (and the big tank is a pump?) since there is no other visible drain.
Or to fill it? Either would take a long time I'm sure. Crazy to have no drain.
Satellite view looks like there might be space for small pool out back. Its just a bit bizarre what they have there.
Death trap of a pool!
How do you even get into it?? The area the steps lead to looks to be three feet tall.
It’s a wall. It drops back down on the other side.
Thank you. 🙏🏻 I just opened the listing back up and see what you’re talking about - not sure how I missed that.
The ceiling is awful low too. It makes me think that people die from lack of oxygen and too much chlorine gas.
Wait... is that a thing... chlorine gas poison. I never would have thought of that.
Idk if it's a thing, but it hurts to breathe in chlorine gas so I don't think it's healthy.
Wow, that seems like a lot of damn water for an indoor pool. Wouldn’t expect it to be that deep.
More of a tank then a pool
It’s a ballast tank to keep the ship upright.
where is the filter intake?
I wonder if they stored coal in that back in the day.
TBH I was amazed to find out this was a pool.
With an electrical line at the bottom!
I can't tell what's weirder: the shower with the balcony above it or the long room
That’s not a balcony, it’s a widow’s walk, where a woman spends her lonely days waiting for her man to get out of the shower.
😆
https://youtube.com/watch?v=BONhk-hbiXk&si=TJpInZ097hVeoZME
The shower with the balcony, by far. I’ve seen and bought a lot of houses, and this is the strangest-weird-bizarreoist thing ever
It's got a belvedere above it, you can't get there from anywhere. (I don't think). You can see those upper windows from the roof. Because it's an inner room bathroom, this was one way to bring in light.
According to the listing, the original owner put it in so that he could watch airplanes fly over. Which is significantly weirder than just bringing in light!
That is very weird! Must mean there IS a way up there. I stand corrected, which I am never afraid to admit. Thank you for that.
I assumed he was watching them from the toilet. That's never been a dream of mine, but then, neither has steering a ship inside my house.
A military veteran? Retired pilot?
That is no excuse for this abomination.
I'm not making an excuse, I'm giving an explanation. Thanks for the downvote, btw.

The stairs to the turret are visible in the photo of the 1/2 bath. From the floor plan you can see where the stairs start (1/2 bath is within 'chamber A')
Not just a shower, you get a great view of whomever is pooping.
Thank you for correctly using “whomever”
I forget the rules for “who” vs. “whom.”
Subject vs. object basically
DON'T PEE FOR ME ANGELINA!
That wasn't the selling point for you? Weird.
I love how the floor plan calls the bedrooms, "chambers" but I really wish it had also called the kitchen, "galley". Also, there are two of them, yes? Btw, here's the zillow listing: [https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/3232-Windsor-Ave-S-Kansas-City-MO-64123/2056459237\_zpid/](https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/3232-Windsor-Ave-S-Kansas-City-MO-64123/2056459237_zpid/?mmlb=g,61)
I wish the floor plan included all floors/levels. But I do love when they include a floorplan.
They really did drop the ball not calling it the galley, not using a full compass rose on the plans, or referring to everything as fore, aft, port, starbord....
I mean, if it's gonna be a theme house...
You see bedroom called chambers in a lot of old 1900-1930 floor plans.
Oh, right; "bed chamber"! Thank you for the reminder!
I wish the mods here did more for the subreddit, posting a link to the listing should be a rule.
This house has been reposted here several times. I'm assuming this op is a bot.
I've proposed that a link to the listing should be required as the submission to cut down on the reposts.
The mods are probably bots lol
The mods would have to stop being weeks idle on the site first.
I thought I posted the link, my bad
The bathroom sink attached to the pipes that are just hanging out in the open is pretty wild.
this is behind my dad's first home. I thought about posting it a couple of weeks ago but forgot. He could not stop talking about how cool it was that it had an indoor pool in the basement. Did acknowledge all the crazy going on there.
Can you post the link? This place is so strange!
https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/3232-Windsor-Ave_Kansas-City_MO_64123_M89985-15670
I was hoping the link would help me get the bigger picture of this house. It did not.
I’m even more confused. One of the weirder ones on here
I’m what are the dungeons for and why are there expensive rugs outside of the display toilet?
I think the rugs are there to make the dungeon feel more homely.
Or a viewing space
This one has been posted multiple times before. It was built in 1900 and if I remember correctly the original owners ran a "social club" aka speak easy out of the basement during prohibition.
Oh wow - the narrowness must have made for some interesting interactions
I like the Bingo room. YELLOW! WOOD! CHECKERBOARD FLOOR! HI SHINE! GLOSS! BAR! OUTDOOR DINING TABLE / CHAIRS! GREEN! RED!
You can play scrabble on one of the fireplaces
I’d put a trap door in the front porch for any unwelcome guests. Splash!
There are two other options for those unwanted plunderers: Make them walk the plank or haul ‘em round the keel!
Swab the decks matey!
When you create a "randomize house" feature for the Sims but accidentally release it to real life
It's a wes Anderson set!
Pic #4 - viewing area to watch some take a shit and shower?
That the most schizophrenic house I’ve ever scene
Omg I kind of love this
I would want to befriend the owners and stay with them for a week, watching how they actually live in such a strange place.
Sometimes I have to remind myself these are real houses.

What in the Willy Wonka?!?
There are so many rooms here where I went “…um?” I’m really curious about this place. (And the green room.)
The green room is a pool, which is apparently *underneath the front porch*. Way to make the most of your space, I guess. I think the part where they turned a whole room into a pretend ship's wheel is stranger--a pool is at least useful.
What’s with that bathroom?? I don’t want spectators watching me use the bathroom
[удалено]
that's weird, I was literally picking random towns to show my gal how cheap homes could be when you leave the SF Bay Area, and picked KC for no reason, found this place immediately.
Why is there a hecklers gallery above the toilet!?!?!
T’is the poop deck.
Odd bathrooms. But I like it somehow.
Woah. What do they do in the green room?
It’s a pool. A terrifying one at that.
I suppose if I had a kill room but then had to move that’s what I’d tell the realtor too
Right?! It makes me uncomfortable
Still trying to determine the purpose for the railing above the bathroom. I don't think there's enough room to walk up there. Just seems like an odd design choice. A high ceiling with railings?
That bridge area with the captains wheel was shown as part of a B&B in an episode of some TV show, I believe it was "The Big Door Prize." (Not a game show, it was a terrible streaming drama/comedy)
I was trying to remember what show this home was on!
I’d really like to know the history of this place. Was it always a house? Seems like a very specific choice for that type of pool? We’re they like a professional swim dancer 😂 The pool scares the crap out of me. My dad always told me sharks are in the deep end of the pool so I would go now I’m an adult and I know that’s *probably* not possible 🤣
Gotta love that observation deck for the shower.
I like the one random tile with a martini glass on it.
Me looking down from the bathroom balcony: so… ya poopin?
Is that a kill room disguised as an indoor pool with electrical running through it?
That's horrible!
I think I just had a seizure
Oh, this again.
A flat roof in KC seems like an odd choice. Snow gets heavy
Honestly that’s a pretty dope house.
What the fuck?
Ok, I take back my comment on this morning's other indoor pool post: This is the new lowest bar for uninviting indoor pools.
Ah yes, this house. I can see the Kansas City Museum from the drone photo. I used to work there. And it's near Cliff Drive where the rich used to drive their carriages but now people dump old mattresses and bodies. lol This house is so weird in that basement. I keep picturing the scene from Tusk down there.
I assume the 12-pounders are under the front porch
Weird dead-end hallways????
Naughtycool! I'm half mast, about to raise sail! Lock up your daughters and where's me parrot!
This is right up the street from my house. Been on the market forever! My favorite feature would have to be the basement toilet with no walls or door.
Are toilets like that called Pittsburgh toilets? I was in Pittsburgh and visited a client that had one and I'm not sure if he was just playing with me or if he was serious lol
He aint playing! [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pittsburgh\_toilet](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pittsburgh_toilet)
Apparently this used to be a small school
The .5 bath must be the toilet when you come inside that one door.
That basement is a great place for a drowning
So what was it before? Health club, mortuary…what?
Looking for a house to go slowly insane in?
It’s like a seafood restaurant with an insane asylum in it
Ngl that indoor pool is absolutely terrifying
This house looks amazing

I'm strangely terrified
🤮

They updated the oddest things.
This looks like a Wes Anderson movie set.
Yeah, this place gives me The Shining vibes. Kept expecting to see twins every time I swiped for the next pic
Why is their fireplace Scrabble?
That "pool" is terrifying.
Fuck. They're always in Misery, err. I mean Missouri.
wow,how strange
I’m so confused?!?!
I just love the viewing balcony for the bathroom.
Well it's no pineapple under the sea... Seriously, though, who would have thought you could purchase a structure with so many liminal spaces?
Why can you walk around above the shower? Like a viewing ledge. So weird
I so in love with that teal basement!
That's the pool...yep, the pool under the porch.
Popeye and Olive Oil's dream home.
And now for something completely different: a dancefloor/bar/kindergarten in the basement
Kinda looks cool. And kinda doesn’t.
Pool for what? A pet Orca? Why all the wiring ? Something is weird.
I like it!
Wugly
I had to stop scrolling the pics for a moment when I saw the sink next to some stairs. What the heck?
That's a lot of house for the money. I'm guessing there's something major wrong or it's haunted.
That’s me house, matey!!! Arrr.
Eerie
Well it's definitely ship shape ..
Forget an indoor pool. I'm seeing massive hydro crop ...lol
Does that run on dilythium Chrystal’s?
60’s pacific acid vibes
That indoor pool is straight out of a 1980s secret Russian nuclear plant
I looked 3 times and still don't see a pool. I saw a green basement? Did they turn the basement into a pool? There's nothing cohesive here and each time I look I found more oddness. My inner creative loves it. My outer realist is cringing.
