The Dude's Abode: The Big Lebowski's Venice Bungalow Up For Sale

 
Categories: ArchitectureFilm

 

606-608 Venezia
​

 

Are you one of the (many, many) people who can't engage in conversation without dropping a line from the Coen Brothers' seventh movie? Are you also looking to move? Well, we found you a place! You're welcome.

Yep, the Dude's one-bedroom bungalow is on the market, just waiting for you and your own Little Lebowski Urban Achiever to make it a home. Be warned, though: with its "spacious side-yards and a lushly landscaped gated courtyard" it's probably more Bunny'sstyle.

 

Obviously, you're not a golfer.
​

 

"It's a gorgeous little compound," realtor Winston Cenac tells LA Weekly. "Some of the tenants are decorators, so on the inside, the units just look primo." Which is to say that if you are the type of person who has actually been to Lebowski Fest, you are not the type of person who will want to live here.

 

The Dude would not be caught dead in a "lushly landscaped gated courtyard."
​

 

Nor can you afford to. With a going rate of $2.3 million for the lot of six one-bedroom bungalows that come as a package (interpretive dance-obsessed landlord not included), would his Dudeness be able to round up the security deposit? "There's no way," says Cenac. "In the movie the whole compound is very rundown. The people who bought it upgraded it, so unfortunately not."

 

This agression will not stand.
​

 

People stop in all the time anyway to snap photos of the Dude's front porch, much to the delight of the other residents, we're sure. "On the Venice Garden tour, a big group of people recognized it," Cenac recalls. "A German fellow came by to have his picture taken before leaving." We're assuming he wasn't a nihilist.

As for the current owners, all Cenac would say was that they currently live outside the city. "I don't know that there's more information to be had," he says. "It's just a lucky building that got featured and is now a nicer building as a result." Read: the wallpaper no longer smells like milk and vodka, but renowned feminist conceptual artist/heiress Maude Lebowski might still be around.

 

Sex. The physical act of love. Coitus.
​

 

On Tuesday, Bulldog Realtors will host an open house at the property from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. They've even invited Jeff Bridges to come by and say hello. The showing is technically for brokers and agents, but those with a serious interest can show up, as long as they call first. And bring their own rugs.

If You Marry This Man, You Will End Up In A Crawlspace - Guaranteed

 Now, I know I'm no catch. But still. I'm three years younger, quite a few pounds lighter, slightly more hair - and I promise to not kill you and dump your body in the woods. Any takers?

#2 I'M EASY ON THE EYES

 

 
 
 
Like most beautiful people I suppose, I want someone to love me for more than just my pretty face!

After all ...

Someday I won't always look this ruggedly attractive or be the hunk you see before you.

Admire me, if you must, for my physical beauty ... But love me, if you will, for my handsomeness within.

 
Here's his blog. Enjoy and feel better about yourself.

Might as well jump. JUMP!

 Jilted Bride Almost Takes A Swan Dive

jumpaway bride Jilted brides suicidal jump stopped in dramatic fashion

According to a reports, the bride — known only as Li-Wan — leaped to what she thought would be her death after receiving the news that her wedding would not happen to partner Wang Lu. Why? Because Wang was getting his tally wacked by another Chung.

A local worker named Guo Zhongfan happened to catch Li-Wan right as she was jumping, holding her in place until other rescuers enabled him to pull her back to safety by her skirt.

No other details are known about the rescue at this time other than, presumably, what a dick her would-be husband was. Or she wouldn't go down on him, so he split.
