What’s with the shoes??!
And why the steps to go to the toilet?

Because a king must ascend to his throne, obviously!

The bar across the stairs confuses me though

Nevermind, just worked out it's a corner staircase that's not in a corner 🤦‍♀️

That house typifies the absurdity of london prices. Ok it's substantial and has a lot of bedrooms but the inside is so very average. There was nothing of the remotest interest inside. £1.7m?! Insane.

Totally! For that price I would expect beautiful views over iconic monuments !

I think it's a mirror, but in photo 14 it looks like there is a toilet and a shadow toilet for the goth who needs a dark place to poop with their dark thoughts....

Also how many trainers does a person need?

That toilet is so bloody weird! I'm not sure I could bring myself to use it. I would feel like I was on display 😂

I actually cannot believe that someone would pay such a high price for a semi.

Looking at the bedrooms, shoes, photographs, etc, I wouldn't mind betting that it belongs to a sports personality.

The toilet wasn’t my main curiosity but rather wondering if it were some type of odd shoe store featuring men’s trainers. You know, a bit like the old Reigate Jack Wills shop.

I know what you mean! The cars in the driveway I know I'm stereotyping there

I wonder if that Chelsea scarf is a clue

The trainers, there's hardly a pair of dress shoes or boots it's all trainers.

Crazy money, but I think it could be a footballer's place. Its definitely like a game of 'through the keyhole' remember that?

Looking at the floor plan the toilet is over the bulkhead of the stairs on the attic floor.

How can someone own so many pairs of trainers.

I am amazed by that

It doesn't look like a house with young children in it. The bedrooms look like teenagers rooms.
I'm guessing the kids don't look anything like what they used to.

The price is ambitious but I know that area well. It's a great street and that's a lovely big garden for zone 2 London.

HouseyHouse21 · 14/02/2021 02:17

Yep, that's London prices for you. It's large but really 5 bedrooms with a box room that's too small to label on the floorplan. Also there's only one proper bathroom upstairs, I'd want another. And I don't care for the kitchen layout. I'll be interested to see how much it ends up going for...

With all those trainers I'd hazard a guess at it being Romesh ranganathan's house.

Imagine the stench from all those trainers in the hot weather 🤮🤮🤮 also, no way will it achieve the price it's listed at- the area is terrible.

There’s a photo in the hallway maybe of the people that live there

That is quite the trainer collection. I’m guessing the doors in the bedrooms are built in closets? Or the owners are nudists with a shoe fetish, wtf do they keep their clothes??

I hope that’s an outdoor couch set with snow on it. Do like the wood floors mind.
