So many questions-like where’s the sex dungeon, why so many chairs in the bedroom?

The wallpaper!
I'm not sure if my eyes can recover from that - its enough to induce a migraine. wow.

@notchickenagain

Most of the properties in St Annes are Leasehold on something like a 1000 year lease to the Fairhaven Estate. They pay a tiny ground rent per year, a pittance really.

Its like the lovechild of a miami drug boss and Liberace

Inkpaperstars I immediately thought Clockwork Orange too!

It’s horrid,can almost smell it from here.

Me too. Cigarettes and general staleness.

The outside needs hewn stone and cedar cladding and an angular chimney breast. Some fir trees and big shrubs planted and an underground car park with an elevator.

And possibly a private monorail direct to Pleasure Beach.

OMG I love everything about this!

• 4 people can sit at the dressing table - awesome.
• a tele so far from the sofa you can't see it - awesome.
• a dining table pushed up against a wall so you can't use it despite the room being enormous - awesome

Needs knocking down and starting again.

They like a sofa don't they!

The building reminds me of a certain style of council run seafront cafes that you get in a lot of British seaside town, from the era where they were called cafeterias and you had to queue up with your tray and select your food from faded photos on the back wall.

I love it! Well, not the current decor but it could be amazing, great for parties!

Swirly carpet 1970's nightmare!
Knock it down and build something more aesthetically pleasing on the plot.

You would think there must be a production team who would love to use it.

I really like it. Classic 1970s. Someone's put a lot of thought into it.

@opticaldelusion
Do you think it is ORIGINAL 1970's, or just made to look that way? ''retro''?
It is so oppressive...the low ceiling of dismal T&G.. It would make a good film set, but a very difficult house to live in..
Plenty of room for a child to ride around on a trike, like Danny in the Overlook hotel in ''The Shining'' ...

I was looking for Austin Powers in the photos.

I'm another one who feels quite emotional looking at the photos; it's my childhood in aspic. And you really can see the shrinking world of the owner, although I do always wonder why they don't move things for the photos.

I'd put money on it being the home of someone in entertainment behind the scenes - a producer or writer - who is or was really very elderly, rather than a still-famous person in their 70s.

Wow, those carpets are really something. They look like they were designed by a three year old with a new pack of crayons.

I quite like the blue tiles in the bathroom
I'm interested to know more about the co ownership of the beach. Mentioned in the blurb
Intrigued about the giraffe

Do you think estate agents hearts sink when they see this. And think how the fuck am I going to sell this. Or do they relish the challenge

“Well, Lytham isn’t a shit-hole at all. It’s much closer to Harrogate for example.”

That house isn’t in Lytham (which is no Harrogate, much as it may like to believe it is 😁), it’s opposite the dreary sand dunes in St. Anne’s on a very bleak, ugly Road

Rossall is a 30 minute drive whichever route you take, up to an hour in summer season.

Wouldn’t be rushing to put in an offer!

You know how they say that in dreams houses represent the mind? Yeah.

Also, why are there armchairs in the kitchen? Why is one of them directly in front of what looks like either a dishwasher or a washing machine? So many questions.

(Assuming "colorblindness" as the explanation for the carpets.)

It's a sport little run around in the garage. I don't even drive and I knew that.
Possibly a green one with the frog eyes. I touched Garry Warburton's erect penis i n one of those. A long time ago I don't think either of us were that blown away by the experience as I didn't get in his car again.

What the bloody hell?

St Anne’s and particularly Lytham are very nice areas. As different to Blackpool as you could wish for. We visit Lytham around 6 times a year but don’t bother with Blackpool ever.

Oh my eyes... a giraffe... a giraffe wearing a fedora. That place would give me migraines.

Definitely unique taste.

On Twitter, someone has done their homework:

"So I spent the £3 and got a copy of Title LA834242 from the Land Registry. Bought in 1960. The woman who currently owns it doesn't come up in Google but I think I found the obituary of her husband in 2015 at age 85. They seem pretty anonymous despite the decor."

It will almost certainly get knocked down and block of luxury apartments built, as they have done with the property next door. Sell 6 of them for 300k a time, you've made a tidy profit.

The house itself is really unique. The biggest disappointment for me is that it was lacking those 2 essentials of a luxury home from the 1970s - a sunken bath with carpeted surround (my auntie had one of those, I loved it!) or a sauna.

I think it's clearly been owned by someone in the entertainment industry, but I think probably more like an agent. Or a Brian Potter type club owner.

The most interesting thing for me is it was last sold in 1998. I assumed the owner would have lived there for 40 odd years.
