Courtney Love is certainly no stranger to controversy.

As we told you yesterday, the Hole singer is currently facing eviction from her Manhattan townhouse for failing to pay a whopping $54,000 in rent.

But that's not the only thing she's in hot water for. Love also reportedly painted and wallpapered "significant portions of the interior" without the owner's consent after a small fire broke out in a fourth-floor bedroom.

So what kind of controversial quarters is Love really keeping? Pretty nice ones...

In exclusive pics posted on xoJane.com, Love's $324,000 a year, 19th century-home looks pretty chic to us. It's chock-full of antique furnishings, ornate wallpaper, chandeliers and colorful rugs and drapery.

A framed photo of the late Kurt Cobain playing with their daughter Frances Bean Cobain sits on a fireplace mantel in the living room, which is filled with blue and gold couches and chairs, wooden desks, books, a guitar and tons more keepsakes.

One of the three bedrooms is also decorated with blue wallpaper, rugs, chairs and bedding with a royal blue chaise lounge at the foot of the bed. "I love this bed," she told xoJane.com. "I've even had sex in it, twice."

Love's realtor Jared Seligman tells the website that her home is "the epitome of exquisite taste."

If only her landlord felt the same.
