Such a weird mix of old fashioned and modern but I love it too!

Annoyance · 04/10/2020 12:57

Love the house, don't love the trees.

MrsMayo · 04/10/2020 12:59

I love it too, kitchen too modern for me though.

MissDollyMix · 04/10/2020 12:59

That’s a strange house! It could be beautiful with the right attention. The garden doesn’t match the interior at all. I feel like it should have rambling rose gardens!

FatimaMunchy · 04/10/2020 13:05

First time I have ever spotted my curtains on one of these threads!

I could move out of my poxy little 3 bedroom in greater London to that...

Beechview · 04/10/2020 13:16

I mean I love it and really could. Sorry my post came across as a bit boastful but wasn’t meant to be Blush

FizzyPink · 04/10/2020 13:19

Oh I know this house! I’ve always wondered what it’s like inside.
Lovely but why the modern kitchen and bathroom?! They stand out like a sore thumb

FiveGoMadInDorset · 04/10/2020 13:20

Not sure I can cope with a loo in my bedroom

EmmaGrundyForPM · 04/10/2020 13:21

it's a no.from me I'm afraid. I couldn't live there, far too dark and gloomy.

Kernowgal · 04/10/2020 13:31

Ugh. Looks like it belongs to someone high up in UKIP. Remarkable resemblance to a David Winter ceramic.

There were some beautiful houses built in the 1920s and 30s but that's not one of them.

Greentulips1 · 04/10/2020 13:36

Amazing but my first thought was:

Corrrr, that heating bill would be MASSIVE.

I guess that's why these types of houses have fireplaces in most rooms

SmudgeButt · 04/10/2020 13:39

There are bits I love, particularly the outside.

And nice to see some of our furniture already in place!!!

wowfudge · 04/10/2020 13:41

Far too many photos of outside before you get to see inside. Which is a bit disappointing tbh - the black ceiling beams and weird mix of decor styles don't meet the promise of the exterior for me.

StillSmallVoice · 04/10/2020 13:44

It's also on a busy road.

RightOnTheEdge · 04/10/2020 13:46

I love it and I don't, I can't decide.
I don't like all the dark wood but I love it from the outside and really love the stained glass window.

Janleverton · 04/10/2020 13:48

Loo in bedroom. Vom.

Othering · 04/10/2020 13:49

Ooooo no, not for me, at all. The bathroom behind a curtain is beyond the pale too. Fgs, put sliding doors in at least.

notso · 04/10/2020 13:52

Erm, I like the fox on the roof but the rest is naff.
The weird shower/loo in the bedroom with a giant curtain pole.
The cheap looking kitchen, why is the hob behind a door?
The modern bathroom.

Shizzlestix · 04/10/2020 13:53

Pretentious, suit of bloody armour! Horribly close to other properties. At that price, I’d want land.

🤣🤣🤣
Heffalooomia · 04/10/2020 13:56

I wonder what the insurance is like with that roof🤔

Chicchicchicchiclana · 04/10/2020 13:57

I don't like anything about it! The kitchen and bathroom are so awful. The palm trees in the front garden? wtf? An ensuite behind a curtain? no thank you.

WiserOwl · 04/10/2020 14:00

I like it!

You could rent out the basement .
