We all know the saying "things are not always what they seem," and that certainly rings true for this Tudor-style home in Sacramento, CA.

From the outside, the home seems perfectly proper. And then, you take a peek inside.

This boldly colored abode listed for $825,000 caught our eye with its eye-popping interior that was inspired by renowned Spanish architect Antoni Gaudi. The home's trippy transformation has taken social media by storm.

We had to know more.

Located steps from Curtis Park, the four-bedroom domicile was built in 1940. In 1997, the 2,320-square-foot house was sold to a prominent local psychiatrist who transformed the space into his own eccentric work of art.

"The interior was inspired by the four elements: earth, water, fire, and sky," says neighbor and listing agent Janet Carlson, of Lyon Real Estate. "Curved linear lines were preferred. He had a fascination with prime numbers as well, and astrological numbers go up the staircase."

The wild designs that cover the walls and ceilings are made of caulking compound, paint, Styrofoam, and wood.

"The beautiful mosaic on the fireplace is quite stunning," Carlson says. "There is an entire wall with custom-cut doors in it that disappear into the walls, and the light switches are sort of camouflaged. In the room with the slanted ceiling, the custom router work was done by a master carpenter."

The hardwood floors in most of the house were recently finished, and some original details remain intact.

"The home was really a work in progress for the owner," she notes. "The windows are original and feature leaded pane and wavy glass, which means it is really old and original to the home. It really works with the light differently."

There are practical perks such as a hidden storage room in the basement. The basement is full and comes with exterior access. There's also a two-story garage and pool.

"We have had a lot of interest in the property, and offers will be reviewed on Oct. 11," Carlson says.

"We have had art groups interested in the home, as well as artists and flippers. It's a large property for Curtis Park with a full basement that is hard to find. Originally, the house was designed as a three-bedroom with one bathroom," she adds. "One of the owners added the basement and second story, but that goes back about 50 years or so. The hidden storage room has also attracted people looking to store their valuable collections."

The listing is also within walking distance of Sacramento City College and nearby shops and restaurants.
