Real Estrange

Pretty in pink

From the porch and picket fence to the railing and trim, the bright pink and white detailing on this two-story Victorian makes it stand out from the rest of the homes in its neighborhood on Chicago’s West Side. On the market for $160,000, this late-1800s five-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath home spans 2,667 square feet and is fully furnished with even more pink decor inside. The floors, walls and curtains are pink, as is the ornate furniture that fills the home.

A Quaker treat

The Fox family didn’t just leave behind the founding of the Quaker religion as a legacy, they also left an estate that’s currently on the market for $15 million in Foxburg, Pennsylvania. Originally built in 1828, the entire estate features 26 total structures. The main five-bedroom mansion includes a library, wine cellar, conservatory and pub. One of the more interesting structures on the lot is the sugar house, built to help the original family manufacture maple syrup. The equestrian complex is complete with stables, a vet room, carriage museum and riding arena.
