I wouldn't call it "architectural rape" given this statement from the auction web-site --
The owner has asked us to show details of the doors, windows, and other fixtures in this home, as his intent is to modernize much of the home and he is interested in selling these items. Waverly House is selling the removable content and personal effects in this home ONLY. Anyone interested in speaking with the owner about the items attached to the home, can send us and email or call and we will put you in touch with the owner directly.
Only the furnishings and items that have no attached value to the house are being sold. Surely one cannot expect items such as clothes and furniture to remain if the owner is wishing to modernize the house -- whatever that may entail whether that is full restoration or complete gutting.
