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'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!

BoringBettie · 06/04/2021 22:48

Reminds me of the spongebob episode where ‘everything is chrome in the future’ 😂

Thewinterofdiscontent · 06/04/2021 22:48

I like it but you wouldn’t want your fingers caught in the doors.
Not one for rowdy kids I think.

Cornishclio · 06/04/2021 22:49

I would not pay £500k for that. The area looks like a dump and the house is so white and chrome and clinical. No decent outside space either.

honeylou42 · 06/04/2021 22:52

Horrific

BrassyLocks · 06/04/2021 22:55

Even though it's meant to look futuristic, it screams 70s. Defo a single guy there hoping to get lucky and find someone to take double showers with. It's managed to be minimalist and claustrophobic at the same time. Fail.

Chickychickydodah · 06/04/2021 22:58

Nope.it’s to closed in, no natural light and as for the decor 🤯

ComeTheFuck0nBridget · 06/04/2021 23:05

Gosh, imagine the fingerprints!

joysexreno · 06/04/2021 23:07

I truly hate it

Nith · 06/04/2021 23:07

The music on that video is quite stunningly pretentious.

KimchiLaLa · 06/04/2021 23:09

Eww.
No.

Nith · 06/04/2021 23:11

I'm surprised they allow colour TVs to disturb the monochrome, I thought there'd be a binding clause in the sales contract requiring the owner only to have black and white television.

TheFairyCaravan · 06/04/2021 23:11

Oh my Christ! Those stairs. I’d spew every time I went up and down on my stair lift.

The house is hideous. It looks like a submarine.

SofiaMichelle · 06/04/2021 23:11

Oh god it's hideous!

And immediately made me think of the nutter's house in The Human Centipede, even though I can't remember much about that - I assume it's permanently burned into my brain (please don't Google it!)

@gokartdillydilly

The prison bogs Confused
I'm reminded of Dr Chiltern's favoured punishment of Hannibal Lecter for any misdemeanours committed whilst in chokey: removal of his bog seats/lids.

A heavy penalty indeed.

YouKnowItsTrue · 06/04/2021 23:13

Clinical.

Bet the bloke who lives there has changed his name to Ziggy or Zapper.

hazandduck · 06/04/2021 23:14

Hideous. It hurts my eyes, I was actually squinting looking at them. No natural light. And so uncomfortable looking.

NotATomato · 06/04/2021 23:14

My first thought was it has no windows!

Namechangenumber23 · 06/04/2021 23:16

Looks like something from an episode of Black Mirror

PotDaffodil · 06/04/2021 23:18

WHERE IS THE COLOUR??
I quite like some of the features of the building, but all white and steel, god no. Bring on the wood and some throws and rugs. Not that I'm in that price range Smile!

Preservethewood · 06/04/2021 23:18

His n’ hers loos? What?

SoupDragon · 06/04/2021 23:19

The video is music hilarious! Love it. They missed a trick with matching the editing to the music and I did wonder if the agent was going to hurl himself off the roof terrace at the climax of that particular section though.

What's with the prison toilets?

GreenlandTheMovie · 06/04/2021 23:19

I love it! Its like your own personal spaceship, or maybe a boat. Its beautiful.

The location is ok. Low Fell is quite upmarket in Newcastle terms, although I don't know the actual street. But judging by street view, there are sizable family homes just adjacent to it.

SoupDragon · 06/04/2021 23:19

The kitchen just needed an autopsy table.

NoProblem123 · 06/04/2021 23:23

Is like they’ve spent £150k on a cheap house, then another £150k on a fit out to their own ‘clever’ taste, so they can flog it for £500k and clear £200k pretax profit.
They’re so clever.

And what’s with the big patch of bare plaster 1 minute in ? Blood stain Hmm
