It's described as picturesque!

[MartinRohdesBellybuttonFluff]

OK, I grant you the swirly whirly carpet. Something in me really quite likes the multi-coloured one though. I'll get my coat

[itshappening]

Yes, I think the person who picked the multi coloured one must have had a great personality.

I don't know what they think picturesque means, but...

[MikeUniformMike]

It's fab.

[Idratherhaveacupoftea]

I had carpets like those in the 70s, but then so did everybody.

[Justgivemesomepeace]

We had that exact bathroom even down to the soap holder thing, when I was a kid!

[JoJoSM2]

£1750 to rent this dump

[wowfudge]

Never mind the carpets - that bathroom is something else!

[FluffyWuffy100]

The really like the bathroom!

I can't have much confidence in the quality of the land lord though - someone that rents out a house with decor that old doesn't fill me with confidence that they are all over electrical and gas certificates etc

[itshappening]

I think £1750 is less than you would expect for a three bed round there, so they've obviously tried to recognise the... ermm......retro fittings, but maybe not enough! It is odd because they could get a lot more for it if they modernised so must be quite an unusual situation.

Just -- are you my sibling ? same here EXACT bathroom - loved it - still think it looks quite cool really

[MrsFezziwig]

I have just moved into a 1960s house and all the decor is like this. I intend to renovate it but as a 60s child myself I do have a sneaking love for my swirly carpets, Formica worktops and stone fireplace.
The landlord is having a laugh though.

[another20]

I want the glass cabinets either side of the fireplace in the dining room...

[PaxUniversalis]

The word 'psychedelic' comes to mind.

It would be a great house to be used as a film location for a 70s drama.

[another20]

I think it looks pretty immaculate and well cared for - though not updated obviously.

Looks like someone has just died and family want to rent for a while - I doubt it has rented before?

Those carpets look cheap though - electric shock cheap - doubt they would survive a robust carpet cleaning....I can imagine the rubber backing disintegrating ....

[itshappening]

I think you are right another it must have been well cared for to survive as is.

[SilverHawk]

That is one very well kept home and it is very true to it's age. I like it and I'm sure many families would. Not everyone want a hotel room look alike.
The house would not be up for rent without all the relevant safety certificates.
PS Those walnut wardrobes date to about the 1920s, I have a five piece set (was more)

[ThatIsNachoCheese]

My current rental has that exact swirly carpet. Been here 6 months as a stop gap. Leaving in 7 days and counting...

[fuzzyduck1]

Wow they look like my carpets.!!!

[CannotEvenThink]

Our house was like that when we bought it.
