Huntington Beach Painted Ladies

You might think you were magically transported to a posh street in San Francisco but you're still in Los Angeles County. This row of colorfully painted Victorian homes was built in the 1980s, perfect replicas of the charming life-sized dollhouses built a century earlier. Many of the homes are even fashioned with interior designs reminiscent of the Victorian era although accompanied by more modern conveniences such as home theaters and gourmet kitchens. Even these replicas are sought after in the housing market - some have sold for more than $2 million dollars. (Submitted by Sarah Baca)
