A brilliant Rightmove listing

I live near this house and I have always wanted to see inside. Just wish it had a floor plan

It's also on a main road and not "in the heart of" anywhere

Part of me does actually love it as it's such a labour of love but it will be very hard to sell.

Why do all the bedrooms look tiny when the house is ginormous?! So weird. I too would love to see the floor plan

TheSproutOfWrath · 27/09/2023 21:35

Why didn't they put the toilet lid down. Looks so messy 🤣

usernother · 27/09/2023 21:35

Those photos are terrible.

Whatelsecouldibecalled · 27/09/2023 21:35

I honestly think it's god awful

Whatelsecouldibecalled · 27/09/2023 21:36

The photographer needs sacking!!

Would love to see a floor plan

Those photos are awful, they need a proper estate agent

I want to know why it has eight bedrooms and twelve bathrooms. Makes no sense.

Those pictures are so bad - which makes me think the listing isn’t real or something?!

A £3m house with pictures like that?

The photographer in the mirror!!!

Luckydog7 · 27/09/2023 21:38

Why does it have 11bedrooms but FIFTEEN bathrooms!!!

TreeHuggerMum1 · 27/09/2023 21:39

For that much wonga I would want decent sized bedrooms, even if that meant one or two less…

fuckityfuckityfuckfuck · 27/09/2023 21:39

You can see the photographer in the mirror!

Also, OP, I live very near you. Drive past it regularly too.

Riverlee · 27/09/2023 21:39

My first thought was the bedrooms looked tiny. In fact, one of the bathrooms looked bigger than the average bathroom.

Also, personal hate, the open plan downstairs.

Looks great from the outside though.

Omg! Jump scare!

There is something creepy about the whole listing, tbh.

It's very much a real house. I drive past it regularly. The description contradicts it self a few times. It's on a busy main road, it's not anywhere near the Heart of Crawley

Much better- cheaper and has a floor plan

Haunted

Meadowdog · 27/09/2023 21:44

The one in Bristol is magnificent. The one in Crawley is a monstrosity! I'd love to see what it looked like before it was "castleified".

lljkk · 27/09/2023 21:44

I want to like it but terrible pics

WutheredOut · 27/09/2023 21:45

If you look on Google maps you can see the changes to it over the years …. This one is what it looked like in 2012

A brilliant Rightmove listing
Iloveacurry · 27/09/2023 21:46

I drive past this ‘castle’ quite often on my way to work. It’s absolutely hideous. And it’s about 5m from a dual carriage.

Janieforever · 27/09/2023 21:47

God, we live relatively near and drove past this yesterday, we literally sat in the car talking about how fake castle tacky it was. No way it’s worth that money.

Looks like it's had media attention in the past.
