Just been browsing rightmove, looks innocuous from the outside.

Why so many stuffed animals. Please tell me that's not a real zebra they have stuffed!

And what's with the Perspex over the cars in the garage?

The bed ... wtf.. and the stuffed butler bear? This house is literally a comedy of errors

VerbenaGirl · 18/07/2020 14:42

Wow! Just fabulous 🤣

Playmysong · 18/07/2020 14:43

That has to be one of the most disgustingly awful houses I have ever seen. The decor is appalling, the dead animals are appalling, whoever lives there is appalling.

Surely they aren't real animals? The unicorns aren't, anyway.

Mischance · 18/07/2020 14:49

Blimey - no taste or what?! How could anyone wreck such a beautifully proportioned house like that? Jeeps!

longcoffee · 18/07/2020 14:50

If I was the inhabitant of the dog bed in the kitchen I'd be shitting myself...

I presume they toned it down as all the websites and estate agents suggest before listings photos and viewings! The garden looks really bland by comparison.

The makings of a lovely home there.

Photo 5. The alligator/crocodile lurking in the corner Shock

BahMooQuack · 18/07/2020 15:00

god i love it. Blush

RednaxelasLunch · 18/07/2020 15:01

What in the everloving fuck did I just look at!

BahMooQuack · 18/07/2020 15:02

I think the best description for it is 'unapologetic'.

And I STILL love it. It's delightfully bonkers.

BahMooQuack · 18/07/2020 15:03

except I am not so fond of the giant rainbow lips in the staircase landing.

Aside from that though.

LaurieSchafferIsAllBitterNow · 18/07/2020 15:07

I think I need one of those car bubbles. Soft top Mx5 and no garage. :o

I feel I know exactly what sort of chap owns this too....just look at the skimping on those rugs in the hall...buy a decent sized runner, man!

fallfallfall · 18/07/2020 15:12

What a wonderful way to start the day!

HannahStern · 18/07/2020 15:21

@YetAnotherSpartacus

I thought the polar bear (hopefully not ex-real) was holding a gun.

Other than the interesting decor I love it!

I also wonder who owns it.

I'm, guessing middle-eastern or south asian just by some of the colouring in the living room and the bedroom...

Are Union Jack rugs and painting of Winston Churchill with a V-sign a middle-eastern or south asian thing?
mrsBtheparker · 18/07/2020 15:22

The outside looks like a 1930s Council Office or a trying-to-be posh Premier Inn! It just gets worse from there, no need to buy a lottery ticket, definitely not a Sunday morning dream house

YetAnotherBeckyMumsnet · 18/07/2020 15:22

Hello everyone. We've removed some posts which appear to identify the owner. Even if the information is Googleable, we don't think it's really on to put it all together on the thread. If these posts continue, we'll have to take the whole thing down. Thanks.

Littlebelina · 18/07/2020 15:22

I get the need for the car bubbles but why do you need photos of them to sell the house and not more of the garden or other rooms? Unless they are worse than the rooms already photographed Confused

Also wondering what was said in the deleted posts

Littlebelina · 18/07/2020 15:23

Oh cross posted

To show how many vehicles the garage will take. The garden’s relatively tiny so photos of that would probably put people off.

@justasking111

So many houses around Cheshire like this, footballers, it is funny when you as a valuer have to go round them.
How do you hide your surprise?
HermioneWeasley · 18/07/2020 15:27

Oh my!

Littlebelina · 18/07/2020 15:30

You could do that with the garage doors shut surely?

Sailfin · 18/07/2020 15:30

I want a rocking zebra 🦓

Also, why are the cars in giant goldfish bowls?
