Questions, soooooo many questions!

I love the interior but hate that there is no frontage and an unsuitable (for me) back garden.

DeanStockwellsBunny · 18/04/2022 15:30

That's umm interesting!

Is it just me or do others find it hard to see how big / small the rooms are ? With everything one colour there is no depth perspective.

Spiral staircases look great but they are a swine to carry even small boxes up and down let alone furniture or bulky stuff.

Nice view outside though ( sort of )

There's a rather unpleasant bus station near me which has one of those lavatories and basins.

It looks as if all the photos are taken in black and white, only they're not.

Hideous all round.

FatFilledTrottyPuss · 18/04/2022 15:34

You need to watch/listen to, the video tour op, it’s a serial killer’s house. Shock

TattiePants · 18/04/2022 15:36

This isn't too far from me and unsurprisingly, it's been up for sale for years.

LubaLuca · 18/04/2022 15:36

Where's the toilet roll holder? It looks very 'public conveniences'.

BewareTheBeardedDragon · 18/04/2022 15:40

I've seen this one in here before so I guess they haven't sold since it's that same pics. It's vile.

BewareTheBeardedDragon · 18/04/2022 15:40

*the same pictures

RJnomore1 · 18/04/2022 15:42

Oh apart from the prison toilets I love it!

I dream of being minimalist enough to live in a white home…I’d add some boiled and some throws to soften the edges in pale beige, grey and cream…

Unfortunately I like to eat and do things and it would be entirely impractical 😟

NashvilleQueen · 18/04/2022 15:46

I really think with a bit of colour and flair (and new loos) you could make it fabulous. And it's interesting at least. I like the airlock doors.

Some boiled what? Trying to work out the typo and I'm at a loss - put me out of my misery pls!

The living room is nearly identical to my dentists waiting room. What is the podium for?

I looked again and can't find a podium! Which picture number is the podium?
FrightorFlight · 18/04/2022 16:00

Or prison! That loo looks like it belongs in a cell!

Stirlingline · 18/04/2022 16:00

Looks like something from a criminal minds episode about a cannibal killer.

I didn’t see the podium but I assume it’s for the ritualistic killings that take place there.
Eeksteek · 18/04/2022 16:04

What were they thinking? Just what. I can totally understand wanting to have this minimalist look spacey look (I don’t, but whatever) but why not put in some wardrobes? All that money spent on some sort of designer, and there are random things plugged in on the floor? And they couldn’t find rooms for a cinema and a gym and had to combine them? Same with the office - tiny desk in a bedroom?! Also, Wtaf is that staircase about? It must echo like a garage and the lights hurt my eyes in the photos!! It’s creepy. I couldn’t live here without a complete refit. I do quite like the stainless steel kitchen, though. I wouldn’t choose one, but I wouldn’t change it unless I had millions to chuck at it.

I am making some massive assumptions about the man who lived here. It’s definitely a man, and he definitely doesn’t clean up himself. Also, I do not want to meet him. It’s…. Chilling. In every possibly sense of the word.

wetjumpsuits · 18/04/2022 16:05

I've seen this house posted before and am still annoyed there's no floor plan so we can get a real feel of how bonkers this house is

RJnomore1 · 18/04/2022 16:07

@BewareTheBeardedDragon voiles! Bloody autocorrect

DisforDarkChocolate · 18/04/2022 16:10

This has been posted before, it's not been improved since it went on the market.

BewareTheBeardedDragon · 18/04/2022 16:30

[quote RJnomore1]@BewareTheBeardedDragon voiles! Bloody autocorrect[/quote]
🤣 Phew - was thinking maybe boiled heads. It looks like a serial killer lives there to me...

Nousernameforme · 18/04/2022 16:36

Reminds me of the ab fab scene where she wants a kitchen in a ultra modern dentist spitoon style

Norgernert · 18/04/2022 16:38

I like it!

The weird grey filter doesn’t do it any favours though.

And it obviously needs a new loo.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 18/04/2022 18:06

The video tour is a work of genius. It really shows how truly orfful the place is.

LowbrowVictoriana · 18/04/2022 18:27

I rather like it! Well, I would if it had a few more windows. And wasn't on a dingy back street.

I saw it on here before, seems like ages ago. As someone pointed out then it looks exactly like the video for 'Scream' by Michael and Janet Jackson!
