I think I found the perfect laundry room.
In a stunning Maine dream house. Walk to the beach.

I had to look up what that tube is in the corner. It's a pneumatic elevator, and I want one ASAP. Kicks laundry chute butt! #SundayNightZillow
At first I was, like, is that a tardis? A bathroom in the laundry room? A shower? A Star Trek vaporizer? My wife thought it might be a clothes steamer. Then I figured it out. No more trekking up and down stairs with laundry.
This is a classy dream house really, if you happen to have $2.25M lying around.
8BR, 5BA, 6K sf, awesome kitchen, "Stroll home from dinner at the York Harbor Inn or Stage Neck Inn" (4.6 & 4.7 stars respectively on Yelp).
And you get 1.22 acres, trees, garage #SundayNightZillow
Your tardis-looking elevator also has stops in the office and the exercise room. Sweet! I'd be cracking lame Wonka jokes all the time if I lived here. #SundayNightZillow
I assume whoever lives here has a Washington, D.C. connection. Because otherwise this is a weird thing to have in your perfect Maine mansion. #SundayNightZillow
I have since learned that home pneumatic elevators are a thing and typically cost $30K to $50K. Seems reasonable especially for seniors, etc. elevators.com/residential-el…
Fun, informative video shows the installation process for one of these home pneumatic vacuum elevators. They say they patented theirs?
Brilliant.
YUP!
Regretfully this at first glance perfect house appears to *lack A/C.* That is definitely a first in my experience: a $2.25M house with an elevator but no air conditioning. Is this a Maine thing?
