The floor plan is weird and confusing.

Lovely garden.

The caravan next door ruins the initial impression.

The bedrooms look a bit dull, would maybe look better if the lights were on.

[GreenTrafficLights]

What is an "established" terraced house?!? Can a house be unestablished?

A few thoughts on the photos: get a new front shot without the huge RV and try and make the house look lived in, or totally empty. It's mid way at the mo.

[IrregularCommentary]

Can you get the caravan cropped out of the picture?

[maxandmaxine]

Yeah that caravan isn't there any more .. been replaced with a classic car ! (Bit beat up though ).

[maxandmaxine]

I'm looking to buy it , so just wondering if there are any red flags (sorry should've mentioned that!)

[Glossolalia]

The classic car would be better but still not gread. I would get it photoshopped out!

[Floralnomad]

I wouldn't even get as far as looking inside as I would be put off by the frontage , it's quite ugly and there is no garden just parking and that is not well defined from the neighbours . The motor home ,would also put me off .

[GreenTrafficLights]

I wonder whether you are realistically priced. This place is very close, has a larger kitchen and an extra bedroom but is cheaper www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-61674983.html

[Riderontheswarm]

Yes, I would. It looks like a good house. It would be a lot cheaper round here but considering where it is the price looks okay.

[maxandmaxine]

ALERT ALERT I'M A BUYER NOT THE SELLER!!

[Northernlurker]

Is that how the market is in that area? Seems expensive for what it is. I like the garden but the house is forgettable.

[maxandmaxine]

@greentrafficlights that house is abysmal inside. Dark, stinks of curry , terrible decor , kitchen is lit by a strip light only and no natural light. It was a very poor property. The agent was pretty embarrassed.

[GreenTrafficLights]

Oh right, what do you want us to say toyoubas the buyer? If you like it and you have researched prices on the area Then go for it.

I wouldn't buy anything right now. The market will bottom out with Brexit looming.

[Floralnomad]

What is it with these links that magic there way in now! Classic car may be better but I would be concerned what would turn up next . Is established a new word for ex local authority ?

[maxandmaxine]

The prices are normal for the area unfortunately. The sellers have bought already , and I am a cash buyer so hoping that an offer of slightly less will swing things.

[pictish]

Very pricey! I'm guessing that's the going rate for a three bedroom in Cambridge though.

Ehhhm...I quite like it, yes...but i like a quirky house and live in one myself. However...that garden is either your dream or your nightmare. Is a large garden in your criteria? That's a lot of grass to cut if not.

[GreenTrafficLights]

If you are a cash buyer then hold your horses and wait for the market to plunge

[gobbelinothewitchescat]

The layout is really confusing. Are there two living rooms?

[maxandmaxine]

They're all ex council , well some are still council but the majority have been bought privately. The local primary is a stones throw away too. I think the actual house would be a great family home especiall with the garden (in a flat at the moment! ). Does the layout seem ok?

[Happiness25]

I think it is former local authority housing. Does that matter to you? Also, the second house doesn't have a picture taken from the front at all.

[maxandmaxine]

I think 1 living and 1 dining (straight off kitchen).
Not in a position to wait around really , as need to buy somewhere ASAP for my mum to move into so I can care for her. It's been long enough coming !

[JoJoSM2]

Are you a developer looking to convert it to 2 flats or is it meant to be a home? Personally, I'm not a fan of this type of housing stock and would probably find the garden unnecessarily long (looks like a bare yard now but would cost an awful lot to do up properly as it's so long). I also don't like buying properties with this level of finish inside - I'd want to replace everything to make it nice but equally it isn't that terrible that the price would be low enough to justify a major overhaul.

[NotAMammy]

You really need to make it clearer that the floor plan in the main pictures and the first floorplan when you click on it is for a proposed extension. You should make the first pic you seen on floor plans the existing floorplan.

Also, remove one of the sofas - they're making that room look squished.

[gobbelinothewitchescat]

But the floor plan shows a living room on ground floor with two bedrooms and a stair case that only seems accessible from the outside and then another living room with open plan kitchen on the first floor. Is it the right floor plan?

[LottieDoubtie]

As a buyer I don't like the caravan. I do like the parking out front, I do want to park two cars I don't want to lug the mower through the house.

I'm put off by the excessively long corridor garden, it would be wasted on me and Therefore I don't want to pay for it.

The kitchen appears small and the floor plan is baffling.

So on balance you're welcome to it 😃😉 but we're all different so..
