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.
