London flat thread.

[Pipbin]

I love looking at super expensive tiny wee London flats. I love either imagining living a wonderful life style or being shocked at the cost of a cupboard.

Hard to keep a small space tidy I guess
Fantasy London flat
Or I might have this one
Oh the bath...
Imagine trying to keep this clean

the last 2 have CGI photos where the floor plan that shows what you actually get bears no relationship to the pretty pictures. I'm amazed they can get away with that.

[Pipbin]

The one with the bath is also on with a different agent showing the flat from different angles. I don't think that is cg, just very clever camera angles.

[Pipbin]

Looking at it again I see what you mean.
The pictures are of a show flat or cgi and the same pictures are used for everything from studio to 7 bedroom.

[StepAwayFromTheThesaurus]

The bath one is definitely not the flats shown in the photos. For a start, there are photos of two different bathrooms, and all the rest of it doesn't fit together either.
I'm also amazed that they're allowed to advertise a flat with completely fabricated photos (and certainly with no obvious disclaimer).

[Pipbin]

It normally says 'show home pictures' or some shit doesn't it?

The second flat.. that's a bit much. Everytime you need the toilet you have to climb down that silly ladder. Ridiculous

[Lonecatwithkitten]

I used to live in the basement flat of the last one twenty years ago!

[cosmicglittergirl]

I like the Battersea ones. The others are nuts, imagine opening your front door into your lounge/bedroom and walking five steps to your loo!

[TwinkleCrinkle]

This makes me feel so much better about the prices in our area! They do look great though!

[Pipbin]

I don't think the toilet was down the ladder. I think there is a small 'study' space that you access from the bathroom.

[mrsmeerkat]

oh.. thank God for that. imagine having a few to many mojitos in one of those local bars and having to navigate the ladder all night
