And it looks so normal from the outside.

Let me guess.... house belonged to an elderly, no longer very mobile lady who offered room and board to her grandson in exchange for a bit of housekeeping. GS was on acid and brought in his best mate, and together they kept house and updated the property whilst on their various trips. Old lady has now passed and her heirs have ensured vacant possession but cannot be arsed to get the place ready for selling.

I can’t see the photos pasted on the wall without thinking of this episode of Alan Partridge

I didn’t know there was another thread but clearly it’s so good we threaded it twice.

I kinda like the crazy bathroom Grin rest not so much. There was a lady artist/designer I saw on TV that covered pretty much every surface in a riot of colour & pattern, I love bright arty things but I'd need to lay in dark room was just too much.

Can imagine living in grim place with old swirly carpet and what looks like polystyrene tiles on ceilings may bring some desperation for bright, happy colours. It looks like needs total renovation anyway.

Well at least it’s isn’t grey… ! Bizarre. I think the owner was definitely smoking something…

Theunamedcat · 11/03/2022 21:54

Is that a dining hatch in the bathroom?

Is the bath really that short?

How does the bed fit in the small room

So many questions

Rubyupbeat · 11/03/2022 22:02

Not my style, but a whole lot cheerier than greys , whites and scandi crap.

Grim

Yes, this is at least the second thread on MN, and it also came up on my FB feed. Getting plenty of exposure, that's for sure!
It will go for a lot over £72K.

Blossomtoes · 11/03/2022 22:11

I don’t think it’s grim at all. It’s not to most people’s taste but it’s very creative and colourful.

Looking at those pictures gave me a really bad vibe think something bad happened there

That would be the carpets that don't show blood.

Gotajobthrunepotism · 11/03/2022 22:17

I’ve seen this fucking house on about 20 Facebook and Instagram posts today.

Velveteenchair · 11/03/2022 23:18

That’s because it’s so marvellous.

@DobbyTheHouseElk

So many questions! Why the skeletons in the kitchen. I mean why not have skeletons in the kitchen.
Can’t believe I didn’t even register them!

Recent sold prices for other 3 bed cottage flats nearby are around £80-100k at most so it won't go for a huge amount over asking, considering that most people will want to completely redecorate, recarpet and possibly new kitchen and bathroom.

Not everywhere has seen massive price increases in recent years and some areas have not gone far past 2007 levels.

Omg, it's hideous, I Love it!!

It should be an Airbnb it would be an Instagram hit!

balalake · 12/03/2022 07:23

A film set opportunity if ever there was one. Trainspotting part 3 perhaps?

I feel like if the people who owned/rented this were wealthy or middle class the flat would be preserved for all eternity like Charleston:
