There is a house down the street from me, 9200 Shawnee Run Road, in Indian Hill, Ohio that had a similar room. It was built by the founder of the Albers Grocery Store chain.
Apparently his first wife died and at 75 years old, he went to Las Vegas where he met a 21 year old showgirl. They were married for a few years until he wore himself out and died.
The widow built an extra floor within the 30 high entryway and decorated it for parties. Mirrors on the ceiling, red shag carpeting, red hot tub, red bathroom fixtures (all out in the open). Couches around the perimeter.
Perfect for the 1980s Disco Era.
She died a few years ago and the new owners restored it back to a nice home.
I had the opportunity to talk with the new owners dad while the tear out was happening. Absolutely crazy stories.
I bet there are a lot of homes like that around.
Great googlie ooglies!
I know that house!
I used to deliver pizzas to that house!
I thought she was just a good tipper.
We were at a party at some friends house about 15 years ago. One of the other guys there said to come with him because he wanted to show me something. He took me down to this guys sex dungeon. It was bizarre. We never hung out with those people again.
What tipped you off? Probably the red shag carpeting?
