To secretly love this?

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.

Reminds me of the Smash advert

It's like a prison cell for an ambassador in the year 2400

It looks like somewhere a human centipede type film would be made.

It’s so, so bad.

Gives me the heebie jeebies! Looks like somewhere that would have hidden cameras, the awful bathrooms, was one of the on a raised platform with no door??? Doesn't appear to have many windows, looks like somewhere someone would commit murder or hold hostages! YABVU to secretly like it

@SarahBellam

Wonder who owns it. Know any up and coming singers/bands from Gateshead? You’d need to be a pretty serious player to have that many guitars.

I was thinking the same - it seems like a celebrity's house but I'm not sure of any celebs that live in low fell. My other thought was the geordie shore house!

I actually like the outside. The inside is an acquired taste though.

Love it! But it won't look the same with 'normal' furniture.

love it!

Oh god it’s terrifying! Why do all the doors have locks on them?!

@NewPlantsNeeded

The doors remind me of the Aliens film, a lot of it does

Was just thinking exactly this!!!

@waterproofed thank you!
Downloaded it on Amazon music now 😊

Just shows that money can’t buy taste or class. I was it a brothel which catered for “special” tastes ? All rooms able to be hosed down.

I've never seen a more depressing interior.

Awful.

@LittleMissnotLittleMrs

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

Totally agree. Looks like Space 1999- an old TV series we had a video of. Picture makes it look warehousey and mewsy. It is a back lane off a very busy main road. Way over-priced.

All that... and no floor plan?

@IsSpringSprangedYet

Could someone please watch the video and at 2.51, please tell me what is in the mirror...looks like someone/thing is peeping around the corner!

It's hard to imagine what it would look like if you took all the stainless steel and silver out and furnished it normally with colour and wooden details... might be nice? Or not? I have to wipe our fridge everyday because of fingerprints... I'd go mad!!

I think it is just the shadow / silhouette of the person taking the video. With a phone or camera held up to their face, standing in front of the round window and slowly turning round to pan around the room.

No wonder you're on edge though.

Current inhabitants:

I normally hate modern stuff, but for some weird reason, I love it. The windows, the stairs and the doors are so quirky.

Hugely overpriced though, imo.

I'd also probably go crazy trying to keep the kitchen clean of fingerprints.

Horrible. Sterile, bland and cold.

I rather like it & think it would be a fun holiday let (theoretically if you teleported it somewhere trendy).

But I couldn't live in it. I have stuff. It would totally ruin the vibe once you started scattering coffee mugs & un put away laundry & pets etc around the gaff.

fuck no

Its very sterile. Like an operating theatre

@sonjadog

I wonder why there are no windows? Is it that the original building didn't have any and they had to keep the facade, or did they actually want no natural light inside??

Looks like a claustrophobic death-trap to me. Imagine if there was a fire in there...

It's hard to tell if it's blinds or wood of some sort but there's something over the windows if you look at the street view of it.

Front door seems oddly appropriate though 😂😂

It's very sterile. Like an operating theatre.

I hate it. Although the one good thing is that spiders would have a hard time setting up camp, as you'd see them a mile off!
