    whyyy is there a bed in the bathroom? I checked the description and there are FIVE bathrooms, and five bedrooms. Is it that the owner was very elderly and decided to move in to the downstairs bathroom? Wouldn't you move the bed out for the viewings? Make it make sense ...

    Might be a Pittsburgh Toilet.

    There are a few guesses as to why these are found like that:

    1. Surrounding area was known for mining, so workers getting home would be covered in soot.
    2. A way to stop sewer backups into the home

    I think someone need to be addressing why there is a bed in the bathroom.

    Welcome to real estate in the Lehigh Valley. If your neighbor’s brand new custom home with quality materials sold for $200/sq. ft, then your original home built in 1962 with no updates and needing a total renovation is also worth $200/sq. ft. Everything here gets listed at top dollar.

    If the toilet is in the bedroom then all normal rules of courtesy are void.

    Is this a bed in the bathroom or a toilet in the bedroom?

    Looks like they took some double wides, smooshed them together and put a second story on.

    I'm not familiar with the area but almost $800k for that dumpy, weird house seems like a lot to me.

    The bed in the bathroom with the toilet right next to it is extra gross.

    The lazy guy in me appreciates the toilet next to the bed. If I angle it right, I might not even need to get out of bed…

    I used to live somewhere that had a toilet right next to my bed. Luckily, I was able to get out a couple years early due to good behavior.

    I'm guessing it is related to aging in place or illness or both.

    Some people do end up moving commodes into their sleeping quarters at a certain point, if it's not easy for them to get from the bed to the toilet... I assume this person just decided to cut out the middleman of the commode and set up a bed in a bath big enough for it.

    It probably does allow a higher modicum of independence if mobility is low. Plus, nobody has to empty a commode.

    Ohhh you're probably right, I didn't see the chains on the dresser knobs so that they're easier to open. Thanks, I never would have figured that out.
