It's "set" to within an inch of it's life and any hint of personally removed but what do you think? I don't like it. The kitchen would have to go (although I love the views!) and the rooms seem a little small.

It’s a cottage... the rooms wouldn’t be big. I think it’s quite nice.. gorgeous views.

I’m imagining sitting out on that decking might be an issue if you don’t like the smell of cow poo!!

It's not for sale though. That article is from a year ago.

I imagine it's very set for the photos!! Dont think I'd find too much fault if I was given the place!! Plus isn't 'personality' something d it discouraged when selling.

I always wonder why they are selling, they've this fabulous house - gorgeous enough to warrant a magazine article - and they want to sell it!!

Also if that's a small house and rooms there's a few million teeny-weeny houses about.

Beautiful views. Kitchen is awful and the bathroom is very harsh. That's a house that needs to look lived in, comfy, not staged and soulless.

Awful. Love the garden, though.

Not a bit of dodgy MDF in sight 😂

Most people's estate agent photos are 'set'
I think it's lovely, i wouldn't have put that tatty winter garden pic in there though!

It would need completely redecorating to suit my tastes, I hate all the grey. Also a bit weird how the field comes right up to the decking with no sort of boundary, I would need to put something up

She needs to Viakal her shower drain a bit better Grin

But handy for chatting to the farmer as he ploughs!

It also got dropped £20k so it can't have been that well priced.

Very underwhelming.

The kitchen island is awful. I can’t work out if she only has a tiny bit of garden, ie the decking or if it extends a bit into that field area

The kitchen is downright ugly.

I'm also surprised to see those dated naughties, high backed dining chairs!

I'm actually not keen on the view of the muddy field and it's all a bit flat.
It's strange how the decking backs straight onto the field.
I really like the front of the house though and the living room and bedroom in the photo.

It is on the market: www.rightmove.co.uk/s6p/73044766

Weird master bathroom (which is almost bigger than our flat!) You almost have to walk over the toilet to get in and out.
Looks like the garden might smell a little "agricultural".
Not for me.

I just had a look at the listing (still on market, price reduced last year)

House is decent size but two of the bedrooms are a bit small. The decking and raised beds look really filthy!

Horrid kitchen. Cold clinical floors, flat damp scenery, but I like that it’s white and uncluttered.
