I love every room!!

I hope whoever buys it keeps it the same and doesn’t end up ruining it by having everything white and grey.

I think it would make a lovely B&B if it’s not already been one.

ladygindiva · 05/07/2024 22:29

That's going to give me nightmares

Notchangingnameagain · 05/07/2024 22:37

I absolutely LOVE this wallpaper!!!

To really love this kitchen…
PossumintheHouse · 05/07/2024 22:38

I... don't even know where to start with this. It's like a nightmarish cross between Keeping up Appearances, The Shining, The Little Mermaid and 1970's disco. I need to know who owns this house.

Sux2buthen · 05/07/2024 22:43

I love the bathroom

Eviolle · 05/07/2024 22:43

Wowser. That's a lot to take in at this time of night. 😂

HungryLittleCrocodile · 05/07/2024 22:49

@Myblindsaredown I agree. IMO it needs to drop about £150K. JMO. Maybe someone will pay that if they want to live in that house. I reckon there are waaaaaaaaaaaay cheaper properties that size (or close to it) in Barry though!

The only hint of modern life is the washing machine and microwave otherwise they have 100% committed to the scheme for 40 odd years. Wow

DirtyCheeseBurger · 05/07/2024 23:10

I hate these threads. It's someone's home you have effectively put up for ridicule.

IBegYourBiggestPardon · 05/07/2024 23:24

You'd need to look out at the ocean. To calm your eyes after living in that place. This inside of it is hideous!

I love the wallpaper in the dining room.

Me too!

BobbyBiscuits · 06/07/2024 00:10

Omg amazing! The whole thing is like something from a time warp! I really want to go there! Lol
Seriously though it's a lovely house with great views. Decor obviously a teeny bit on the dated side!

ll09sm · 06/07/2024 00:21

Do people really still live like that?

justasking111 · 06/07/2024 00:29

Where's the back garden.

It's mainly a decor fix plus kitchen and eventually bathroom.

The views are incredible

MarjorieDanvers · 06/07/2024 01:41

@HungryLittleCrocodile of course! But not with that view!

Marine Drive is the most expensive road in Barry (because of the view!).

MarjorieDanvers · 06/07/2024 01:43

I think I’ve lived in London too long - I thought it was cheap (given the view!)

Contraryjane · 06/07/2024 02:16

I found it on satellite image. The back garden is tiny because it’s squished next to the house on the corner.

MouseMinge · 06/07/2024 02:47

It's sort of awfully wonderful or wonderfully awful and while there are parts of it that are a plain flat out "Nope!" there are more parts that I love because the owners just went with what they loved and I love that. The price seems very steep though. Very, very steep. Is it normal for that area? The views are absolutely stunning so there must be at least some of those hundreds of thousands that are the cost of the view but it still seems quite a lot.

Bluebirdover · 06/07/2024 02:50

The whole house is epic! Albeit not my taste.

The pink bath!

Kitkatcatflap · 06/07/2024 03:09

If Barbara

Cartland had been born in Barry

FOJN · 06/07/2024 06:45

I couldn't live with such busy decor but the photos give a sense of a really well loved home.

Julyshouldbesunny · 05/07/2024 20:47

Think I feel a migraine coming on...

I'm dyslexic, I read that as meringue.

But I can now imagine opening the fridge and a meringue rising up and overtaking the room like th blob.

ISeriouslyDoubtIt · 05/07/2024 21:58

What a bloody ridiculous, patronising and uninformed comment. Why wouldn't someone in Wales be able to afford it?
Yes Barry is a shithole but it's near to Cardiff and with that house you're paying for the sea view, if it was in Penarth you'd be paying at least another 500k. There are loads of areas of Cardiff and surrounding villages, Cowbridge and Vale of Glamorgan, areas of Monmouthshire and Pembrokeshire for example where housing is expensive but houses sells quickly because people can afford it. Cardiff is a modern capital city like any other and professionals working there are paid accordingly. I don't know if you've ever been to Wales but we don't all live in tiny houses up the valleys and get paid minimum wage you know.

👏👏👏

Some expensive housing in the Gower too. Catherine Zeta Jones has a place there I believe.

TemuSpecialBuy · 05/07/2024 20:46

The price of that 😵‍💫

it’s Barry in wales and in need of total gutting.

you could buy something not wildly
dissimilar on the outskirts of London for slightly more

who can afford this in Wales?!!?

No one. We are all peasants in Wales that live in caves and have a horse and cart instead of a car.

AhBiscuits · 06/07/2024 07:37

The whole house is gorgeous. I want to buy it. Shame our jobs and kids schools won't allow a commute from Barry.
