Aside from the slightly acquired decorative taste... wtf is with them sneaking their tea set (or part of it) into as many pictures as possible? Grin bonus points when it’s photographed with muffins or a cheese board...

I love these threads.

I’m intrigued by photo no 10 (which also states 17 of 49).

Look up (beyond the tray of muffins and teacups). There is some kind of smoked window with a set of drawers underneath. But what is going on behind the window or screen? A woman with a bun in her hair leaning over a dining table? She seems to be wearing a shiny belt. Who or what is to her left - a child? Maybe she has baked some more muffins for staging and the child wants to eat one?

Or is it a ghostly apparition? :)

Wonder what the estate agents thought when they looked through the photos

I actually love it. Even the decor

Much prefer that house at £700,000 to that Willesden house on another thread which is almost £1million more

So funny! This thread has made me smile no end! Grin
If I was looking to buy at the moment I'd be way more likely to fall in love with this than a house that's utterly blank in personality and looks like it's been rented or repossessed!
It may be Home Staged, but it feels full of love and a happy homely place, nonetheless. Grin

The idea of Poirot bedding has really made me laugh :o :o

I wouldn't be surprised if my brother bought that place, he lives that way and has delusions of grandeur.

Snooks1971 · 14/02/2021 14:53

I’m so freaked out by the couple who have been turned to stone in the garden Shock

MerryChristmasToYou · 14/02/2021 15:07

It's Pierrot not Poirot, @InsaneLockdowner, although I could understand why you might be thinking about murder.

I have asked the EA where the teaset is from.

SuperPixie247 · 14/02/2021 15:14

I drove past this house a few weeks ago and couldn't wait to nosy on rightmove.

£700k for a badly aged property on a main road in Wakefield, right next door to a pub and a stones throw away from the Asda and estate? Nah you're alright 🤣

I would be concerned about the electrics and boiler needing replacing!

trappedsincesundaymorn · 14/02/2021 15:19

I reckon the owner was going full on Mrs Doyle when the EA went to do the photos.

"Will you be wanting some tea? Ah go on, go on, go .on"

yesyoudoknowme · 14/02/2021 15:38

Omg photo 20! They are obsessed with tea services...

SoupDragon · 14/02/2021 15:39

Is that a huge crack in the corner of the ceiling in 31 of 49/Photo 4?

SoupDragon · 14/02/2021 15:41

Poirot was brought in to investigate the murder of the interloper Cheese Board who tried to muscle in in the gig.

Suzi888 · 14/02/2021 15:44

doublehalo · 14/02/2021 15:54

Amazing house - terrible photos.

Its an amazing house

I have copied an image of the hall flooring- my house is very similar but the flooring was removed in the 1970s and I am constantly looking at authentic flooring before I decided what to put down and that house has an indexical fireplace to be of ours- so a similar type house.

Palavah · 14/02/2021 16:27

I love the close-up photo of the skanky bath taps.

And the roaming tea set.

And the coqeuttishly half-open doors.

And the ghosts.
