The part of her post that highlighted this aspect read:

"We chose to honor the positive aspects of the previous owner’s life, his immense talent, and all the joy he brought to so many people. The decision to purchase the home had nothing to do with the previous owner, just our love of the home. We do plan to keep some of the design elements. The batman logo in the pool is definitely staying."

Additionally, the post also mentioned:

"It’s a piece of paradise that is filled with light and the perfect vacation home for us. Can’t wait to make new memories in it."
