Just for fun, here are some facts about the Joestar house itself!
Aside from some small hand mirrors (which are put away when not in use) and a tall standing mirror in Jonathan’s room, there are no mirrors in the house. Yes, this does mean awkward blank spots above the bathroom sinks.
Kakyoin’s room used to be Jonathan’s, and what is now Jonathan’s room was originally his parents’. All of the original furniture is still there, so although it’s a nice room, it looks like... Well, like a room designed for a well-off domestic couple with classical tastes in the 90s, not an unmarried 20-something guy living with 6 housemates who works in retail and barely has enough money to afford groceries. (Admittedly he likes the look of the furniture, though.)
Joseph/Caesar and Jotaro’s rooms both have glass sliding doors that open onto a balcony overlooking the pool. Jotaro’s room has several posters (including a massive print of the periodic table of elements), a small TV and a large fish tank on the desk, a dog bed for Star Platinum, and a photo of famous marine biologist Rachel Carson in a dolphin-themed frame that was a mirror until he punched the glass out.Â
Joseph and Caesar’s room has walls totally covered in all sorts of posters, wall scrolls, photos, and magazine clippings, and also has a large CD tower and a shelf running all along the walls that displays various figures, Lego sets, and other collectibles. There are also several cardboard boxes full of comic books under Joseph’s bed.
Josuke and Okuyasu’s room is on the first floor, and used to be a library with a frankly really impressive amount of books in it. A few bookcases are still in there, but the rest have been moved to either the office, Jonathan’s room, or the attic. Aside from the bookcases, their room contains a small bed, a futon, a dresser, and a laundry hamper. They take turns sleeping in the bed vs. the futon.
The attic is mostly used for storing seasonal items (clothes, Christmas decorations, etc.) and bins full of stuff belonging to George and Holly that the boys never bothered getting rid of, but don’t have any use for. Some of the things in there date back to the late 80s.
There isn’t a basement, but there is a garage, where they keep the washing machine and dryer. They also use it to store tools, gardening supplies, outdoor toys/sports equipment/pool stuff, and groceries that don’t fit in the kitchen (there’s a big shelf unit and a small refrigerator). There isn’t enough room in the garage for cars, so they all stay in the driveway.
The kitchen has several different sets of fridge poetry magnets, which result in some... interesting literature. And no I can’t really deny that they have the Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff fridge magnets tbh. Of course it also has normal stuff like photos, takeout menus, shopping lists, etc.
There’s an old upright piano in the corner of the dining room that was a gift from George to Holly for their 10th anniversary. It’s a nice piano, but piano maintenance is expensive and not really a priority, so it hasn’t been tuned in several years and would probably sound terrible if played.
There is a fully functional fireplace in the living room, which they do use sometimes in the winter (more for atmosphere than anything, since the house does have central heating). Whether or not this is actually a good idea is... questionable, since the chimney probably hasn’t been cleaned in quite a while. There’s also a sword above the mantel, which Jonathan is very fond of.
As far as electronics go, there are two TVs in the house: a large HD flatscreen TV in the living room, and a small CRT TV in Jotaro’s room. The three computers include Kakyoin’s gaming computer in his room, Jonathan’s slightly old laptop, and the family desktop in the office. The desktop is old and still uses Windows 7, and runs fairly smoothly thanks to Josuke, but just isn’t up to date enough to run some stuff. An Xbox 360, Wii, and Playstation 3 are hooked up to the TV in the living room, while Jotaro’s TV just has a GameCube, and there’s been some talk of possibly pooling money and saving up for a Switch for the household.
