Now I know that everyone has individual tastes, but what on earth is going on in this house?!! The landing!!

I'm more interested in the cooker, who needs 7 burners?

I have seven burners, and use most of them a lot, the Wok burner not so much. I use two for a griddle quite often which leaves, four for veg excluding the Wok. Also different size burners for different size pans.

I love a colourful house! This is probably a bit far even for me (I just couldn’t live with those pink wardrobes) but would defo keep some of the colour. Awesome garden too.

notprincehamlet · 12/05/2024 14:04

Remote control shower. Why does this need to exist??
I'm guessing it's popular in Airbnb properties so guests don't exceed their allotted spoonful of water

mitogoshi · 12/05/2024 14:06

Wonder if it's the former owners of a house I once had. It's was pretty out there decor wise but we had moved from overseas so took what we could. Several rooms are similar by chance though it seems even more out there!

AllTheChaos · 12/05/2024 14:11

I love some of the colour choices and wallpaper, and the dark green velvet chairs are exactly what I would have if I had money, and no destructive pets!

Dibbydoos · 12/05/2024 14:41

Wow a post to slag off someone's taste in decor.

Congrats @scruffydogstinks this is the lowest of the low.

It's easy to resolve wtf

Doodar · 12/05/2024 14:46

Its a semi cottage

Idontgiveashitanymore · 12/05/2024 14:56

🤢someone with no taste apparently 🤣🤣

PoppyCherryDog · 12/05/2024 14:59

I dont think it’s that bad. Not my taste and the pink room is a bit woah but I’ve seen far worse.

PTSDBarbiegirl · 12/05/2024 14:59

If this is still for sale you could be sabotaging someone's chances of a divorce settlement. Get this down, its vindictive AF.

What?

Username947531 · 12/05/2024 15:03

OK so it's not your taste, but that's really nasty to post it here so you can get the support of others to sneer at this person's house. What kind of people do that?

blackpinkinyourarea · 12/05/2024 15:11

I also dislike these threads, inviting everyone to sneer.
And also someone is now slagging off the area. Its actually not a horrible area at all. They are right about the house being close to the m1 and a52 though which will affect the value.

scruffydogstinks · 12/05/2024 15:14

Woooooooah people calm down!
It was supposed to be a lighthearted post about an eccentric decor that I happened to see on a public website!

If anyone bothered to read my next posts I also said that I really like the garden, I much prefer colourful houses than boring neutral grey houses, and it looked like a good value house! Not exactly ripping it to shreds was I?!

But if you didn't flip through the photos and go wow at some of the decor choices then clearly (from what I summarise from a lot of these posts) then you will go straight to heaven while the rest of us are damned to hell for eternity 🙄

I actually love that the owner is creative and has done their own thing, I can only image they are an interesting fun person, but I'm sure they themselves recognise that their decor will get a wow reaction!

And as for the poster who recons that this might ruin someone's divorce settlement, a) that's a big leap to assume it's being sold for a divorce, and b) anyone looking at buying will see it anyway... it's on bloody rightmove! If anything this post as widened the audience to more potential buyers, if you can be bothers to strip it all and paint it then it's a good priced house!

Jesus some of you need to get off your soap boxes!

Fair play OP, I am slightly mollified.

Username947531 · 12/05/2024 15:23

Yes I did go through the photos and I don't agree you're being lighthearted OP. The type of person who would post that on here to joke about it is fundamentally someone with different values to me when it comes to thinking of others.

CountTo10 · 12/05/2024 15:26

It made me think that they have someone in their family who is an aspiring interior designer and they've let them loose on the house. It just isn't very coherent like something's been tried out in one room and then something entirely different in another. It's just really odd.

Whothefuckdoesthat · 12/05/2024 16:02

Woooooooah people calm down! It was supposed to be a lighthearted post about an eccentric decor that I happened to see on a public website! That’s exactly what people say when they’ve been an arsehole and they’ve been called out on it. ‘Calm down, I was just having a laugh, can’t you take a joke?’ They posted on Right Move, not ‘Rate my Decor and Then Take the Piss’.

If anything this post as widened the audience to more potential buyers. Oh do give over, ffs 😂 Don’t start making out that your motives for this post were altruistic. You were trying to take the piss. Have the courage of your convictions, at least!

Never claimed the post was altruistic, but as one poster accused it's not going to run someone's divorce settlement, it has had a wider audience that it would have had.

If you think I'm an arse that is fine. I don't give a toss what a stranger on the internet thinks my intentions were. I've said what my intentions were, I don't care if you believe me.

Now off you pop to duck your lemons and go be high and mighty somewhere else to make you feel better.

I'm off... might have a browse on rightmove 😁 bye!

anunlikelyseahorse · 12/05/2024 16:31

Oh I love it. Every room tells a story and an era. I don't think I could live with it, without a migraine, but I still think it's ace. I bet the person who lives there is awesome.

Whothefuckdoesthat · 12/05/2024 16:55

Off I pop to duck my lemons? Okaaaay 😂

dragonscannotswim · 12/05/2024 17:27

I love some of their wallpaper choices! But I wouldn't mix so many patterns.

Much nicer than having a house that's all boring white/grey/magnolia though.

Someone who likes cooking and often entertains?

Modern Shower, Remote Controlled

What's that mean?

Trulyme · 12/05/2024 18:03

I really like it!

I love homes where each room looks completely different to the next.
