Property porn - feel like this is a real 'marmite' house

[lucysnowe2]

I really love it however :)

It's been on for years. A friend of ours went to see it months ago but thought it wasn't remotely worth the money.
Wraysbury floods btw...

absolutely love it from the outside but the inside is just awful, i'd have to gut the place & re-do in a more modern style

I'd enjoy staying there, but couldn't live in it.

I think it would be the perfect place for Terry Tibbs

Now I think about it, its the type of house I'd expect Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen to live in. Or did the owners get him to decorate it, its right up his street.

I like marmite, I don’t like this house.

It’s far too garish and busy. It would give me eye ache and a migraine.

Floods, dust, reminiscent of Marie Antoinette.

Never in a million years. Ever.

The architecture and woodwork is beautiful, It gives a very Spanish or Italian villa feel but as a whole I don't like it, too many different styles in each and every room, it's like a sensory assault

I quite like it, mad as a stick but jolly.

But you're not wrong about all the dusting!!!

Stay there for a few months - sure. Buy it if I had the money...? Just thinking of the dust and dirt buildup in crevices... No.

I'd hate to live in it but would love to spend a week there!

It would be an amazing B&B or guesthouse.

Being under the Heathrow flight path and very close to the airport would not be an advantage, however.

I feel your pain.

It's right underneath the Heathrow flight path. No thanks!

I LOVE IT

A weekend stay would be great, but couldn’t live there. Who on earth fitted the dining room carpet? 🤣

The garden is gorgeous.

I love the gardens, especially the sunken bit, but....the inside is horrendous (to me) reminds me of a tomb.

outside is nice

oh no its awful, its like someone took all the hideous things from trips abroad and put them in 1 too small house.

To me the ceilings are too low for the decor etc.

Although I do like a lot of the parts of the house, I would prefer it in a huge mansion/castle.

We have a winner!

It's not for me. 3 million would buy me something with a lot less crappy Pre Raphaelite friezes on the walls, for a start.

Nice to look at, nightmare to live in. Too cluttered, even though there's not much clutter. Just the impression of everything together. I like double bath tub though.

Goodness. What a chaotic mess.

It would need a lot of work to get it to some semblance of taste.

Love it. Would have to paint over the yellow walls though.

I love it, but wouldn’t want to have to maintain it.

Urgh, no thanks!

I don't understand it. It's like there are 3 different houses all mixed up. You've got the renaissance style one, the country manor and a modern boring one.

There are some beautiful bits. I love the windows but I can't work it out. I wouldn't even know where to start.

Wasn’t that on Hugh Dennis Huge Homes which was on all4??
if I remember the owner was in his 80s and quite eccentric
