I don't like the decor, but the building itself is really quirky!

Also, the video tour is quite something and should definitely be viewed with sound on.

It is certainly quirky and very 'young'.

The kitchen makes me think of 'Jurassic Park', in which the velociraptors caused chaos after managing to open the door.

I would not cope with the gaps between the stairs.

A bit it looks like a compression chamber, or maybe a submarine, with a 'funny' oval door.

Other than those, it's fine! :-)

Wishihadanalgorithm · 06/04/2021 17:53

Is it made out of a submarine? As for the music- WOW!

jessstan2 · 06/04/2021 17:55

Quite honestly, I think it would scare me to live there.

I guess it's OK on the outside if you were ever a fan of Playschool in the early 80's era.

Jeez, the housing market in Low Fell has gone up a bit in the 20yrs since I was last there 😲

1Morewineplease · 06/04/2021 17:59

It's not a calming place to live and seems child-unfriendly. But that is just an opinion.

TestingTestingWonTooFree · 06/04/2021 18:00

I HATE the public toilet.

Where do you think the stairs to nowhere go?

mcdog · 06/04/2021 18:00

Are the photos in black and white or has my phone gone barmy?

wiltingflower · 06/04/2021 18:01

This was beautiful and I'm glad you said to play the video with sound! It's all very futuristic, I was surprised when I saw the guitars and a pop of colour in some of the pictures.

MarieIVanArkleStinks · 06/04/2021 18:01

I normally like a bit of eccentricity. But this is more like Belmarsh (steel lavs) meets Star Trek!

Not for me.

PriestessofPing · 06/04/2021 18:02

omg could you imagine cleaning that kitchen?

MrBeagles · 06/04/2021 18:07

It's beautiful but keeping it clean is giving me palpitations Shock

Cotswoldmama · 06/04/2021 18:08

Omg! It's the most vile house I've ever seen! How could you relax?

BradTomby · 06/04/2021 18:10

OMG the toilets! They are the hideous public toilets that don't have seats imagine freezing your arse off everyday Shock

frostymornings · 06/04/2021 18:11

How the hell would you keep that kitchen clean?ShockShockShock

Amdone123 · 06/04/2021 18:11

Wow !!
But agree with pps, neither calming nor child friendly, and the cleaning!!

FourEyesGood · 06/04/2021 18:11

My friend linked to this on Facebook and someone commented that it looks like the owner told the interior design people, “My two favourite films are ‘2001: A Space Odyssey’ and ‘American Psycho’. I’d like my house to reflect this.”
It’s horrible! If I went inside, I’d constantly feel as if I was about to be murdered.

thismeansnothing · 06/04/2021 18:11

Omg those metal toilets with no seat. Reminds me of those grim toilets you'd find in a bus station or local park that you would only ever use if absolutely desperate

WitchesBritchesPumpkinPants · 06/04/2021 18:12

I'd love to go and view it!

I couldn't live in it despite loving a white decor.

Let's just say, it's a million miles away from the homes my family there have!

bloodyhell19 · 06/04/2021 18:12

The prison toilets are...a choice...

Confused
Touloser · 06/04/2021 18:13

500k to live behind a bathroom shop (that i swear I've never seen anyone go in before!) And 2 doors down from a garage?! I've spent a lot of time stuck in traffic on that road and never thought "oooh I'd love to live here!)

gokartdillydilly · 06/04/2021 18:14

The prison bogs Confused

Aquamarine1029 · 06/04/2021 18:15

That house is insane. Honestly, I have no words.

YouJustFoldItIn · 06/04/2021 18:15

I think that's the sort of place where they could make a reality TV series out of locking you in there alone and filming you 24 hours a day to seeing how long it takes for you to go stark staring mad.

Amberheartkitty · 06/04/2021 18:15

It’s awful.
