This Stately Home Has a Shockingly Colorful Interior

When you think of a $.2 million dollar home in one of America's most upscale neighborhoods, you might picture a refined, understated interior to match a prim and proper outside. But while opinionated neighbors may push homeowners to keep a traditional exterior, the inside can become a playground for stifled creativity.

At least that's what we imagine must have influenced the decor of this on-the-market mansion in Bronxville, NY. Two artists currently live in the nearly 6,000-square-foot space, and they left no corner untouched by their craft. Monique Rafferty, a manager at Sotheby's Realty, told Curbed that "one [homeowner] does caricatures and collects historically significant bronze animal sculptures, the other creates wildly colorful installations, sculptures, and paintings."

The eclectic (and often neon) design is a nod to the area's artistic past; the home is situated in Lawrence Park, which was once Bronxville's artist's colony. And, goodness, we hope that bit of history helps this one-of-a-kind space sell quickly.
