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 weirdly minimalist and cluttered. I had high hopes with the commercial renovation - they can be really interesting.

LucieStar · 06/04/2021 18:15

I've spent a lot of time stuck in traffic on that road and never thought "oooh I'd love to live here!)

Same. Wouldn't be my choice of location either. And I don't like most of the decor either, too clinical looking.

Grey, Grey, Grey, Grey, Grey, Grey... PINK SOFA... Grey, Grey, Grey.. prison toilets.. Grey Grey Grey.

@BradTomby

OMG the toilets! They are the hideous public toilets that don't have seats imagine freezing your arse off everyday Shock
This was my first thought too! I'd be using the one normal one.

Other than that, at least it would be a blank canvas with all those white walls. It needs some colour to bring it to life.

It looks like a murderer’s house.

LadyJaye · 06/04/2021 18:17

It's totally not to my normal taste, but I love it!

It would be like living in a space rocket. Grin

funnylittlefloozie · 06/04/2021 18:18

That house is bloody vile. Its like a footballer's wife's fantasy.

PurpleFlower1983 · 06/04/2021 18:19

Looks like a hospital or a posh prison!

Babygotblueyes · 06/04/2021 18:20

I kind of love people who decorate how they want to and not with an eye to resale. So, I am a fan, although it is not my personal taste.

notalwaysalondoner · 06/04/2021 18:21

I don't like it at all, and I'm 'young' - no way near enough windows, very bland, cold decor. The portholes and doors are kind of cool I guess.

QuestionableMouse · 06/04/2021 18:22

It looks like it's been designed to make it easy to clean up the blood once you've finished your killing spree.

And all that stainless steel is giving me flashbacks of being at work and Ajaxing everything.

Aquamarine1029 · 06/04/2021 18:23

I love minimal and I love white, but that house is barren. I think being in that kitchen too long might trigger a panic attack.

tsmainsqueeze · 06/04/2021 18:23

Kitchen is like a mortuary.

Emmylou1985 · 06/04/2021 18:24

I was enjoying it until I noticed the carpet in a bathroom. Carpet round your loo is just grimy.

StopGuacAndRoll · 06/04/2021 18:25

I would love to stay there for a week on holiday. That’s about it

Winterwoollies · 06/04/2021 18:25

The kitchen looks like a morgue and as for the stainless steel toilet pan? Either a prison or a hospital. No.

littlejo67 · 06/04/2021 18:25

I really love it!

WitchesBritchesPumpkinPants · 06/04/2021 18:27

@frostymornings

How the hell would you keep that kitchen clean?ShockShockShock
I'd have a live in housekeeper!
Alonelonelyloner · 06/04/2021 18:28

Without the shite furniture it would be ok I guess but 500k?? Nope.

Tupperwarelid · 06/04/2021 18:28

Doesn't it have any windows?

Veterinari · 06/04/2021 18:29

Where are the windows?!?
I'd be permanently depressed living there, there's no natural light

It's perfect for a serial killing vampire

JackieWeaverHandforthCouncil · 06/04/2021 18:30

Keeping all the stainless steel smear free would kill me. I’d be polishing non stop.

Diversion · 06/04/2021 18:32

Hated the house, but laughed at the music. Reminded me of something from a horror film and I think the estate agents probably had a bit of a giggle putting that as the music to the video

Midge75 · 06/04/2021 18:37

I felt such relief when I clicked on the roof deck - I could almost feel myself gulping air into my lungs!

Boatonthehorizon · 06/04/2021 18:39

I like the doors but theres no colour at all. Id go mad.
No windows?
