There's a certain family that has a lot of children that could definitely do with a bigger house like this

Libertynan · 27/03/2021 17:01

Amazing! But yeah, Scunthorpe. 😉

Also imagine how long it would take to clean the place.

HoldontoOneMoreDay · 27/03/2021 17:02

I actually love it though am perturbed by the very small dining tables. I'd buy it and Air BnB/hostel some of it. Except the trampoline room, that's all for me.

@groundcontroltomontydon

Chandeliers and a trampoline - what could possibly go wrong?
And a balcony overlooking the trampoline! Reverse trampolining anyone?

Marco Polooooooo!

Usagi12 · 27/03/2021 17:03

I want it!

bumblingbovine49 · 27/03/2021 17:03

I actually really like it but way too many toilets to clean !!!

LaLaLandIsNoFun · 27/03/2021 17:05

It’s.....eclectic

Wink

I see it was a care home,hotel. Surely better to turn it into apartments with there own gym/sauna

3CCC · 27/03/2021 17:07

I'd love that for £700k

Loving the green Astroturf carpet and the trampolines

IndecentFeminist · 27/03/2021 17:09

Some kind of activity centre type thing I reckon

Jemma2907 · 27/03/2021 17:11

I love it!!! Imagine the parties you could have there! If only friends and family weren't 300miles away!

wonkylegs · 27/03/2021 17:11

It was up for sale in 2017 for £275, they then applied for change of use and it's now classified as a housing and redecorated from care home chic to what it is now a holiday let. It's seems to have gone back and forth between hotel and care home a few times through planning.
Can't see a swimming pool on the plans just the trampoline / games room

Lavanderrose · 27/03/2021 17:13

Very odd and a little bit sinister

Sstrongtn · 27/03/2021 17:16

My kids would have a field day in there, I’d never catch the feral buggers.

It’s amazing and insane, but it’s Scunthorpe, hence cheap.

Would be a good investment for a HMO.

SionnachGlic · 27/03/2021 17:16

OP,
Did he send it because you are looking to buy? And if so, do you like it? It looks nice from outside but some of the interior is too much for me...but that is just personal style/taste. I would prefer not to pay for expensive/fancy interiors which are not to my taste...I think I'd be better suited to an older rundown fixer-upper. Happy househunting!

I8toys · 27/03/2021 17:17

It would be great for a sister wives set up or some sort of cult!

SylviaPlath1984 · 27/03/2021 17:18

I don't think I'd move to Scunthorpe if you have me the house AND £700k lol

JustAnotherBrick · 27/03/2021 17:18

Given that you only get a 3 bed semi round here for that price, I almost had a serious moment where I thought the two adult DC and partners, DH and I, for less than £250k each, could have 5 or 6 bedrooms for each couple. I don’t think we’d be in danger of getting under each other’s feet! You can barely get a flat round here for 250k.

Chimeraforce · 27/03/2021 17:18

It made me smile. 😊

Reinventinganna · 27/03/2021 17:20

The dining tables are so tiny compared to the space available.

NeverTrustaRabbit · 27/03/2021 17:20

I remember when that was a pub/hotel - back in the day when I was a teenager 😂

DIshedUp · 27/03/2021 17:21

It looks like its own by a group of children or teens, so a care home for children or something along those lines would make sense

I definitely want a trampoline room now!

IsThePopeCatholic · 27/03/2021 17:22

Location, location, location.... that’s the problem here.

Midlifelady · 27/03/2021 17:22

Some of these are computer generated.
It was a hotel then a kids thing then a nursing home - so says the description. They need to include a floor plan!

Saltyslug · 27/03/2021 17:23

I’m desperate to see a layout diagram
