Just been browsing rightmove, looks innocuous from the outside.

Why is the kitchen so small
Maybe it's just for show

If it was just for show they have failed miserably.

It was all the rage in the 90s but even in the 90s people would have made a bigger statement of the kitchen.

I presume it is a single guy who lives there.

I can imagine a short business type man owing that.

Wow is that truffula trees in photo 5?

Astounding

@70isaLimitNotaTarget

I’m guessing they don’t cook much

or have people over for dinner . There's one vaguely comfortable looking chair and two benches that look like Gymnasium Horses .
Rounded top , leather , shiney - you'd have to sit astride and twist yourself round or risk slipping off the bloody things .

Actually, now you mention it, was there a dining table? I see the kitchen is the one there from the last time it was sold.

What a shame. Such a beautiful house destroyed by completely inappropriate decor.

Friend in NYC realtor, the rich do not cook, they either eat out or caterers provide for eating in.

This house screams someone in the film industry.

PenelopePitstop49 · 18/07/2020 14:03

Can you imagine the estate agents face walking into that?!??!?!

Clearly the interior designer was told the theme was cheap and tacky.

They hit that brief. Bullseye.

@EnjoyingTheSilence

What is it about lots of money and appalling taste?

This is what nightmares are made of 😳

BruceAndNosh · 18/07/2020 14:08

As Dolly Parton once said "it takes a lot of money to look that cheap"

Fanthorpe · 18/07/2020 14:09

Gosh that stuff isn’t cheap! Taxidermy like that is very expensive.

totalpeas22 · 18/07/2020 14:11

Some one from the Middle East? Awful!

That beautiful house has been violated - whoever owns it should be arrested for crimes against style

MaeDanvers · 18/07/2020 14:18

Yea that would scare me at night.

fairydustandpixies · 18/07/2020 14:23

My. Eyes. Are. Bleeding.

LadyPenelope68 · 18/07/2020 14:24

I’d walk in that entrance hall and walk back out, plus what’s with the weird feather lights? Very bizarre!! Cars in bubbles? 🤯

theDudesmummy · 18/07/2020 14:29

The very ordinary little teddy bear on the glass cube bed in that mad bedroom is possibly the weirdest thing of all...

thesunwillout · 18/07/2020 14:30

Fleas

Everywhere 🤢

AlexisCarringtonColbyDexter · 18/07/2020 14:33

That house is amazing. Those ostrich feather lights are so OTT that I didn’t even notice the massive alligator in the corner the first time I looked!

Oliversmumsarmy · 18/07/2020 14:39

I think the old adage when decorating a house “less is more” should have been in mind

Even the gymnasium looks unusable because of how much is in there. How would you move about between the equipment.
I would have thought they would have gone for at least a Dyson fan in there rather than a bog standard one.
