But not pursue it as it’s almost certainly very very haunted. It’s beautiful, I love it, but I just cannot cope with the number of ghosts that it looks as though it contains. AIBU?

But there is a cat looking pretty chilled, I always thought cats + ghosts don’t get on?

Anotherlovelybitofsquirrel · 10/10/2020 20:11

Ooooh that's not too far from us. I love it!

Maybe it's a ghost cat! And ghost chair. Because I have no idea why the heck would someone put a chair in that place👀

It's stunning , risk it and let us know

Happyheartlovelife · 10/10/2020 20:14

It's auction. I doubt very much it will go for 450.

Bluntness100 · 10/10/2020 20:14

Weirdly all the bedrooms appear to have chairs facing the Beds. Which is a bit dodgey looking..like some form of swingers paradise..

Wellsbells · 10/10/2020 20:15

What do you reckon it’ll go for, realistically, at auction?

Yeah I definitely get the haunted vibe from some of the rooms too OP, actually got goosebumps when I saw one of bedroom photos which was weird Confused

kursaalflyer · 10/10/2020 20:15

I'm interested to know why it's so cheap.

Sevo7 · 10/10/2020 20:16

But it is a beautiful house, just brick up the haunted rooms and it’ll be great Grin

The weird basement room I'd probably where they did the hangings.Grin
I love it, I'd live there.

@Bluntness100 well I never used to, but having read some of the ‘weird occurrences’ threads on here, I have to admit it’s in the back of my mind sometimes.

The chairs in the bedrooms are to pile one's clean laundry on, prior to putting it away or leaving it there like me
There's not much of a garden and it's right on the road.
But it's cheap as chips, I'd buy it.

Probably best not to do that any more if it impacts you. That house is bright and airy and not even remotely spooky.

Oh yeah it could be, or stuffed 👀

Bluntness100 · 10/10/2020 20:20

@kursaalflyer

I'm interested to know why it's so cheap.
And why it’s being sold at auction. There must be a structural fault or something,,,
CarrieMoonbeams · 10/10/2020 20:21

I'll bet that red rocking chair in the kitchen starts creaking away on its own during the night 👀👀👀👀👀

Wellsbells · 10/10/2020 20:23

@Serin “the hangings” Grin oh god

Rather than that it will be because it is difficult to sell. I don't know anyone sane without super deep pockets who would touch grade 1 listed. I would steer clear even of grade 2 after previous experience.

lockeddownandcrazy · 10/10/2020 20:25

Gorgeous and the ghosts wouldnt put me off - how do you know they arent friendly ghosts?

PolkadotGiraffe · 10/10/2020 20:29

@Aquamarine1029

Too close to the road and why do the bedrooms have so many chairs directly facing the beds? Confused
Handmaid's Tale type scenario where bedroom activities must be witnessed? ConfusedGrin

Grade 1 listed, at auction, low guide price?

I’d imagine there are some scarily expensive repairs needed!

WanderingMilly · 10/10/2020 20:32

Nice house, needs some work on it, too close to the road and not enough land. But no ghosts....don't believe they exist....
