Maybe you don’t have $6.245 Million right now, but if you save up while you fix and flip houses, you might just amass that much money in a few years. By then, you’d be able to buy the late Dennis Hopper’s property in Venice Beach, California.

The 15,500-square foot property is where the actor and director reportedly entertained his Jasper Johns, Roy Lichtenstein, and other fellow friends from the show business industry. But that’s not the only reason why you should persevere in your rehabbing business and buy this house (although that seems like a remote possibility as you will need a few years to amass that much money).

When you fix and flip, you sometimes meet houses that appear to be weird on the exteriors. They then shock you further with the interiors. This is that type of house. Outside, the main house looks like an industrial warehouse made from corrugated metal. Once you see its interiors though, you’ll be amazed. It has a loft feel and features some really cool furniture and fixtures.

It has a glass-enclosed bathtub and a lot of huge oriental rugs, which were probably from places the “Easy Rider” visited. The house has very high ceilings and exposed wood beams. There’s a sense of masculinity in it that’s really reminiscent of the late actor.

“Shocking by interiors,” let’s just coin that term, is probably dangerous in rehabbing homes because buyers tend to be easily turned off by ugly exteriors. The better thing to do is to perhaps make both the exterior and interior look good.
