• A pirate ship-themed Las Vegas home that hit the market in July had 40 showings on its first day.
• The sellers were inspired to redecorate by the "Pirates of the Caribbean" ride at Disneyland.
• They spent $100,000 transforming each room into a whimsical getaway before selling it. 

In July, a $349,000 listing for a Las Vegas house started making waves on the Nevada real-estate market. That's because the ranch-style home was crafted to resemble an 18th-century pirate ship.

After buying the $76,900 house in 2010, the former owners spent the last 13 years and $100,000 transforming its rooms into a fictitious realm.

Within a week of being listed, the property sold for thousands of dollars over its asking price, agent Ashea Lindell-Gray told Insider. Its new owners intend to keep the home's interiors intact.

Lindell-Gray said that the former owner drew inspiration from the blockbuster hit "Pirates of the Caribbean." 

"The first ride they ever rode at Disneyland was Pirates of the Caribbean," she said. "They remember entering another world and it felt like a fantasy." The environment made them feel safe and they wanted to recreate the atmosphere in their own home someday, she said. 

The pirate ship-inspired home weaves a tale of the high seas into everyday living, offering an immersive experience for anyone who steps inside. It features plank-like flooring, a wet bar, a private casita, and several bedrooms suitable for Captain Jack Sparrow. 

"It's amazing that the home's former owners were able to do this all by themselves," Lindell-Gray said adding that, "the home is such a labor of love and pictures really don't do it justice."

Take a look inside. 

The ranch-style home was built in the 1970s. Despite its ordinary appearance, beyond these walls are several rooms that resemble cabins from a 1700s pirate ship.

The first day the home was on the market it had 40 showings. By the second, it had already received multiple offers over its asking price, Lindell-Gray told Insider. 

"It was insane to see people from different walks of life express interest in the home," she said. "We were getting interest from corporations to families — people that you would never expect submitting offers."

The front hallway of the home was made to look like a ship at port.

Hand-painted stars speckle its walls and ceiling, emulating a dark night out at sea. Its plank-like floors make visitors feel as if they are setting foot on a ship's deck.

Almost every inch of the house has been transformed into a pirate's getaway.

This room was previously a garage but has been converted into an entertainment space.

The room is often used to host events and gatherings, Lindell-Gray said.

The main living room features a handmade helm and mast, which is built from paper, cardboard, and styrofoam. It’s detachable and can be moved around the home.

Dark brown wainscotting runs along the dining room walls. The home's sellers stained and burnt the wood themselves, Lindell-Gray said.

The kitchen is one the most conventional rooms in the home. Even so, a pirate's lair is just a few steps away.

The home has three bedrooms and four bathrooms. Unlike the majority of the home, its bathrooms are not pirate themed.

An attached casita was inspired by Indiana Jones.

It has a separate entrance from the main house, and its own bathroom, kitchen, sleeping space, and living room.

The homeowners can use the casita as a rental or for visiting guests, Lindell-Gray said.

The casita's living room even has its own fireplace.

The captain's quarters, also known as the primary bedroom, is lined with wood that was customized by the sellers. Its floors have an artificial grass covering.

The home's former owners agreed to sell the property with its existing furniture, so the new owners can live their own pirate's life.
