Not your regular "end of terrace, 4 bedded house"

I love those caves!

That house is my nightmare! Pointlessly large, and what the Christ are you going to do with underground caves?!

The underground caves.

Well if I had the money to buy that house I'd also have the money to do the below with the caves

Make a reading room with books and some comfy sofas in one room.

A bar

An art room

A cinema room

A wine cellar

How many rooms have I got left down there?

I love it. I absolutely love it.

Hmm I wouldn’t want to live there, too busy and noisy and it’s right in town.

God the refurb is so awful.

Grey, plasticky, artificial, soulless. Bathroomsbathroomsbathroomsmorebathroomseverywhereplease

YUK!

Its also in a bad school catchment area.

It’s bland as fuck.

I’d buy it, for a lot less money, and put some bloody soul into it!

The caves could be rented out for handfastings and parties...

Grey, plasticky, artificial, soulless.

It's a blank canvas! Show some imagination.

It certainly looks impression and excellent value for money, it's huge and has history. Personally I would be a bit spooked living over caves - I wouldn't even like having a cellar - but I do have an over active imagination.

If you like it, go for it!

Wow - what would £850 buy you in London?!
.......
On the outskirts of London (such as where I live), £850,000 would buy a decent three bed semi with garage and nice garden if you're lucky. Or a beautiful two bedroomed flat in private block with parking and 'patio' garden. Depends on the area.

(Yes, I've been looking, just casually because not ready to move at the moment .)

Or for not a lot more you could buy this which is in the beautiful grounds of the actual home of Lord Bryon, Newstead Abbey just outside of Nottingham.

Omg fucking grey gets everywhere ,doesn't it? 🙄

Or buy the gatehouse to newstead abbey and pocket the £700k

Although that gatehouse is teeny tiny

Nottingham is rough

Obviously it's going to look a bit soulless, it's got no furniture in it! Its not been lived in so it doesn't looked lived in. There's no art etc

I'd much rather buy a blank canvas of a house than with someone else's dodgy decor, it's not exactly hard to add some life in to it.

I like the listing
4 bed
2 reception rooms
Array of caves

I second (third?) the PPs who have pointed out that it’s in a crappy location. Right beside the dual carriageway that now cuts off Nottingham Castle from the city centre, and definitely not in the Park.

Way overpriced for Nottingham too.

Ey up, Rosehip sounds like she’s going to make an offer.

I always think when people say "It's so bland" it sounds jealous and bitter.

If your not into bland decor, surely you wouldn't find it difficult to unbland a building. Everyone has individual tastes and I can't really get worked up about someone else's home decor.

It looks bloody freezing!

I really like it purely as a house, but I know nothing about Nottingham so can't comment on the area or price.

Those bloody awful electric fires in the fireplaces. Cheap and nasty and they want top whack.

I like it. Ready to move into. I think you could make it warm and snuggly very easily with soft furnishings.

Love the caves.

Think Lord Byron would be very disappointed with all that tasteful grey though.

Really surprised by the tasteless refurbishment. It's like Kelly Hoppen meets Office Depot or something. It could be stunning.

LOVE the caves!!

@kjhkj I'm in love!
