The living room looks like they put sofas in a long corridor, the kitchen is not too bad, but it is a really odd house (and ugly)

Exhausteddog · 07/02/2021 07:56

Bedroom 5 looks normal on plan but measurements say 1.2 metres wide!

I feel sure that must be a typo if you look at its dimensions compared to others on the floor plan

sashh · 07/02/2021 07:57

I don't like baths or toilets in the bathroom but actually the whole house was fairly hideous so it wasn't the only thing that put me off!

I'm hoping you mean bedroom, otherwise I'm never visiting your house.

whattodo2019 · 07/02/2021 07:59

very strange and disproportionate house. i'm afraid i don't like it at all.

MNCar · 07/02/2021 08:01

Why not just stick up a stud wall and box it off?!

EmmaGrundyForPM · 07/02/2021 08:01

@MsJackieWeaver if you Google "room divider" there are lots of options. I'm glad to hear you don't need to screen your loo from your bed though!

Id manage it. So gorgeous.

I have a blue house with a blue window... I have a girlfriend and she is so blue. Dabadee dabadi... Glitterball

Buntysbosom · 07/02/2021 08:07

Picture 5 looks like a couple of portacabins to me.
The dog toy in the dining room with the rug is the only thing that makes the house look lived in.
So cold.
I can’t stand baths in bedrooms so a loo is a huge no!

poppycat10 · 07/02/2021 08:08

It is a bit strange. More generally, I was thinking how impossible it would be to keep the house warm.

Nonamesavail · 07/02/2021 08:11

This is near me. I absolutely love blue houses!

3JsMa · 07/02/2021 08:14

The layout is pretty bad. Big house but looks cluttered.

mootymoo · 07/02/2021 08:15

The whole layout is weird, wasted space too and no family bathroom, just a tiny shower room. An architect could improve the flow of the building big time

Bilgepumper · 07/02/2021 08:15

@Dotinthecity

The whole house needs a good sort out inside. The layout is dreadful.
Yes!
emmathedilemma · 07/02/2021 08:21

The whole house is a bit WTF. I've never understood open plan bathrooms, toilet smells and steam from the bath can't be good in a bedroom?? Not to mention sharing it as a double room.

DuzzyFuck · 07/02/2021 08:22

Just because there's a loo on the floor plan doesn't actually mean there is one? Estate Agents aren't renowned for accuracy. This one for example hasn't included a picture of bedroom 3, just used bedroom 2 from another angle and labelled it 3.

StCharlotte · 07/02/2021 08:24

Excellent house for a party.

Anothernick · 07/02/2021 08:26

I think building regulations do not allow toilets in any rooms apart from bathrooms. So this plan should not have been approved. I suppose the bath in the bedroom might be permissible but it seems weird to me.

Carryingon · 07/02/2021 08:26

It looks like you can’t stand up in the dining room.

Bourbonic · 07/02/2021 08:28

I think the house generally is horrid

But I can't see a toilet in a bedroom.

userxx · 07/02/2021 08:30

I can't either. Just looked again but can't see one🤷‍♂️

It looks a cold house to me.

50shadesoflunacy · 07/02/2021 08:30

The garden is the only good thing about that house. It needs a new architect, demolishing ans rebuilding. What a hideous monstrosity.

Stovetopespresso · 07/02/2021 08:31

@EmmaGrundyForPM Even though there is the space to put a wall in. I just can't imagine lying in bed whilst your other half takes a dump 3 feet from your head

errgh yuk!! or maybe they're in to that kind of thing
...

itsgettingweird · 07/02/2021 08:33

Why they didn't just make it a bathroom is beyond me! It's a few walls Grin

Thewinterofdiscontent · 07/02/2021 08:33

@Mummyoflittledragon

The thing, which strikes me the most is paying a million for a house, which is less than a meter from the road, on a bend and has a very small plot for the house size.

To me, it looks as though the people have done it up with more money than sense. Then realised they have overspent and run out of money as the upper floors are very ordinary in comparison to the wow of the downstairs or the the gardens.... albeit downstairs has a very strange configuration. What surely should be the front door has a sofa in front of it in the long, family room.

I thought that too. There doesn’t appear room to park more than one car properly. On the video it shows a similar shaped house nearby. Is it a aspirational developer build?
