I found picture 6 particularly helpful in finding out what the flat looks like.

"350 pcm?????? are they taking the piss???????"

Its double that per room in Brighton, £350pcm is ridiculously cheap.

Unless thats what you meant?

ComposHat · 16/04/2013 22:24

No £350 pcm for a room seems crazily expensive. I suppose that's the bloody south for you.

dashoflime · 16/04/2013 22:24

Hahahaha

It has corners at the edges of some of the rooms. I can tell that much....

manticlimactic · 16/04/2013 22:26

Who has their toilet roll holder that high??

overmydeadbody · 16/04/2013 22:31

Well it looks alright for a shared flat actually.

£350 per room is a bargain too, nothing less that £400 per room round here, going up to £800.

SquirrelNuts · 16/04/2013 22:35

Lovely view! Hmm i also thought picture 2 was brilliant where did they get that lovely mat from!

QuintessentialOHara · 16/04/2013 22:35

Also loving the empty loo roll. It screams:
"look, we made too much poo"
We tried to economize on paper by hanging the bog rolls out of reach so can rinse or use your dress instead

How about this:

I know, it's a house, does that count me out?

6 bed flat in Bristol is not unusual, the student rental market in Bristol is full of VERY large flats and houses. I looked at a 7 bed flat when I was student there.We ended up living in a 5 bed shared house after a couple of people dropped out of the group.

It may well be a flat on 2 or 3 floors above a shop.

Loulybelle · 16/04/2013 22:40

Someone doesnt know how to take pictures in that one Fanny.

Loulybelle · 16/04/2013 22:42

Also, is it me or has that kitchen been put in wonky.

BlackMini · 16/04/2013 22:54

Bonus points to FannyBazaar for photos with fingers in shot.

Shock ive just realised its a 6 bed shared flat, you'd get that for 90pcm round here!! The bathroom picture would put me right off with someones smelly sock, and they cant even be bothered to change the loo roll!

dashoflime · 16/04/2013 22:59

Fanny: Black mould everywhere! Eeek, don't fancy that much!

FannyBazaar · 16/04/2013 23:01

I've seen lots far worse but they seem to have all been sold Confused. There seem to be some Estate Agents who don't feel the need to show the best bits of a property, or, maybe, those were the best bits Shock.

qazxc · 16/04/2013 23:03

loving these photos. am laughing out loud like a mad woman.

currentbuns · 16/04/2013 23:10

Highlighting the black mould in the listing is very sensible. I would like to see more EAs presenting their properties so accurately.

MsIngaFewmarbles · 16/04/2013 23:13

I know where that flat is. I guarantee you it will be £350 per room.

MsIngaFewmarbles · 16/04/2013 23:15

It will be a bit grotty but it's Clifton in Bristol, right near the uni and bars etc. Loads of moneyed kids come to uni in Bristol.

Juniperdewdropofbrandy · 16/04/2013 23:17

Grin Thanks for the laugh.

FannyB yuck at those! All that black mould Shock

WinterWinds · 16/04/2013 23:17

Ha Ha, Love that the Park Home one says:

Letting information:
Date available: Now
Furnishing: Furnished or unfurnished, landlord is flexible

I particularly like picture 2. Is that a flattened cardboard box?

My friends emmigrated to New Zealand a few years ago and their property website photos were a special thing to behold. I remember one house had an un-plumbed loo in every pic, even ones of the garden. We weren't sure if it was a feature they moved around to star in each pic or if they had about 20 loos, randomly placed around the property

freddiefrog · 16/04/2013 23:27

Oh, and I found an ad for a local property once

It was described as a 1 bed detached house with a seafront location, close to amenities. When I read the blurb it was a beach hut

grograg · 16/04/2013 23:52

:) looks lovely
