Swearing Off Pirate Ship Motif Homes was ARRRRguably a Bad Idea with this Vegas Home
Share News:

Over the past couple of years, many stories have been written about homes that have a ship theme. Now the majority of these were of a pirate ship motif but there was one where someone built a house that looked like the Mayflower. That was their goal at least. The owners loved this house soooo much that they had a painting of said house hanging in the home. I am still looking for someone who loves me as much as these people loved this house because this house, most definitely, did not look like the Mayflower.

What can I say? I felt like I needed a Mayflower ship gif right here and you can never go wrong with Kermit and the Eagle. I love the Muppets. I digress.
After the last column I wrote about a home that majored in Pirate and minored in Petrology (rocks), I decided that was enough. You can only say so much about people who dedicated every ounce of their being to making their house look like some boat before becoming repetitive. Though we have written about a pirate ship unironically remodeled as a house. You know me, I like to keep it fresh.

Fresh, crispy, same thing. Where was I? I decided that I would no longer be writing about homes with a ship motif. What happened next was as if the fates that control pirate-themed homes said, “Hold my beer” and produced a home with a pirate ship motif that I simply could not resist. To think that such a home exists is truly extraordinary. Wait until you see this beauty.


From the minute you step into this house, you can tell the owners are going for it in every way conceivable. The world map on the wall. Cannons coming out of the wall. The bloody mast and crows nest in the middle of the living room!

While the cannons and mast are cool, the color scheme allows you to think that perhaps this is a dream.

Off whatever side of the boat this is, they give us the ocean and night sky complete with a full moon. Even the end table is a barrel. Truly, a chef’s kiss all the way around. On to the kitchen.


Believe it or not, the galley is the weirdest part of the house. The pink is off-putting with all the silver. It’s like the buccaneers got confused as to what to do and they tried to bring some of it back in the breakfast area.
This is their only misstep because the party, fun-time part of the house could have been designed by Capt. Jack Sparrow himself.


Welcome to Davy Jones’s Locker and Karaoke Bar! The photographer should be forced to walk the plank for not closing that Apple computer. Amateur. Other than that, you have some very happy pirates.



Oh to have been a fly on the wall to hear all the glorious sea shanties that were sung in this room. These pirates aren’t drinking the swill in those barrels. They’ve got the good stuff behind the bar.
So there you go my people, yet another pirate ship motif house but done really, really well. Until next week …

“The galley.” Mimi, you are too much!
What can I say? I get carried away sometimes. ha ha Here’s hoping you have a great rest of the week. Thanks for the read as always.
I love how the realtors always post these with hypersaturated HDR photos. I want to see the thought bubble over their head. “You know, this is a great house, but I’m afraid it’s just too PLAIN. Maybe if we go crazy on the photos with really saturated neon colors, maybe that would get people’s attention for this vanilla also-ran.”
Also, on the last two photos, there’s a LITERAL Jack Sparrow behind the laptop bar. Either that, or it’s Steve the Pirate from Dodgeball.
Also, black fake alligator shower curtain. That sounds like the password for a CIA safehouse, not something you actually find in a house.
So much rabbit hole here. This place was bought in Aug 2023, and listed for rent. So… was it purchased like this and then someone thought, “I bet I can rent this to a nice family” or did they buy it, DO THIS, and THEN decide to rent it?
Yes to all of it. Now you see why I had to write about this house. It would have been one of my greatest regrets had I not. Thanks for the read. Stay warm.
