It's a mounting block Grin

Good God! They certainly stuck to a theme! Those stainless steel toilets look like they belong in a prison

BillyAndTheSillies · 06/04/2021 21:50

It looks like a prison mortuary. But don't hate the weird porthole doors. Prison mortuary on board a submarine maybe?

BrilliantBetty · 06/04/2021 21:53

What the actual duck

There is another thread about this unusual house!

TheOnlyKoiInAPondOfGoldfish · 06/04/2021 21:59

it's like one of those 1960's sci-fi shows with puppets - set in an imaginary 2021 future world where we all wear white jumpsuits and live in houses like that - with robot staff 🤣

the holes in the wall above the platform look like those sleep pods in budget Japanese hotels 🤷🏼‍♀️

Space prison of the future. With indoor mounting block for your space horse. Gave me the heebie jeebies.

iamruth · 06/04/2021 22:04

Oh @Pollypudding I missed that...!!

I totally wish I was closer to see it for myself!

They are steps up to two bed pods. It tells you waaaay down the description.

It reminds me of those hideous gynaecologist offices you see in dystopian films. I couldn’t live there! Sorry, if you are the owner.

picklemewalnuts · 06/04/2021 22:05

Steps up to sleep pods- I assumed for kids.

I'm interested in the nasty stain on the wall....

@QueenofLouisiana

Damn my impatience and poor reading skills, although I’m just here for the music on that video...

Ok I'm putting my hand up to naivety but I don't understand photo 38??

But yes the whole stainless steel thing and submarine doors is very odd

LakieLady · 06/04/2021 22:31

All those shiney surfaces would drive me mad. They'd be perpetually covered in fingerprints unless you spent all day going round with a duster.

DadAManger · 06/04/2021 22:33

Many years ago, I used to have a very very broad-minded gf who had made certain adjustments to her recently inherited house. A full explanation on MN would be considered unsavory I think - let's just say that the poster who said photo 38 showed a "mounting platform" was very close to the mark. Good memories...

SweetAsANutt · 06/04/2021 22:33

This house actually scares me.

draughtycatflap · 06/04/2021 22:39

It’s perfect. The only change I would make is I’d need to put up a knotty pine shelf for my lovely lady figurine collection.

DadAManger · 06/04/2021 22:40

@SweetAsANutt

This house actually scares me.
Can you imagine bring someone back for the first time after a nice meal and a few bottles of wine?! "The toilet is down the strange hallway, through the submarine doors and past the mounting platform. I will be able to see you through the porthole in the living room..."

This is fantastic.
pheasantsinlove · 06/04/2021 22:48

My mind is still boggled from the mounting platform and I daren't google it! GrinGrinGrin

MahMahMahMahCorona · 06/04/2021 22:48

There aren't any windows! I can't cope. I would probably have to live on the roof.

Love the video! Just a few questions - why are there locks on most of the internal doors in the video? Why is there no floor plan? Why is there a dalek in the next room at the very end of the video? Very intriguing.

serin · 06/04/2021 22:55

Are they sex people?

ButIcantsitonleather · 06/04/2021 22:56

First, second and third place, obviously.

In what though, I can only imagine. Confused

It’s like a kill house.

B33Fr33 · 06/04/2021 23:02

That looks cold. I need a jumper just to go through the advert.
