24.How does Joyce’s house stack up?

For comparison, a home that went on the market in San Antonio, Texas, was frozen in time just like Joyce’s. Maintaining all its original 1970s décor, the realtor had the asked price listed at $355,000. But the more retro aesthetic of Joyce’s house made her 50s/60s décor even more desirable.

A little more similarly, a 1950s two-level bungalow in St. Louis, Missouri had been built and furnished in the 1950s, just like Joyce’s Jane Street house, but had never been lived in by anyone! The house, and its vintage furniture were offered for $129,000. Joyce’s house had one more thing going for it that many others didn’t.
