Here's mine. Not weird but certainly wonderful. The panelled room is my fave.

This one is stuffed with character too. If you watch the video, right at the beginning when the camera pans across the road you might spot an orange building. This was featured in the film The Little Vampire, the main family's home.

This was marketed at 10 - 12 million about 10 years ago so an absolute snip at 6! Very period drama like so not for me. Don't know if Billy Smart (of circus fame) still lives there or whether he managed to sell it on a decade ago.

Converted railway station. Certainly unique, not sure about the layout!

This is a completely different property from others offered so far

Oddbutnotodd · 01/02/2021 17:43

Looks like the house in Parasite

MaelyssQ · 01/02/2021 17:46

This is mine, if anyone can gift me a bit over a million quid. I like the idea of being a lighthouse keeper.

A house (I think) that just doesn't seem like a house to me.

Pizzafortwo · 01/02/2021 17:58

MarshaBradyo · 01/02/2021 18:01
