Is this what you’d consider to be a ‘middle class’ style house?

[Inburess]

or is it just run of the mill these days?

I like the house but who cares what class it is

Bankers? Marketing execs? Life coaches?
Money is made very strangely nowadays.

Can't tell from that, it looks as though it has been extended. If you are that interested in how 'middle class' the house is, you need to see some of the other houses in the road and find out what people do for a living.

I'm not sure houses actually take on class but places like that exist in very mixed areas.

Ashbourne is lovely. Small picturesque town surrounded by beautiful countryside.

LOL.

What is an acceptable way to make money, in your opinion?

This. What a bizarre thread. Can’t we just live in what we like and not be judged?

My house, built by an architect in 1967, described as ‘frankly bizarre’ by a firmly middle class acquaintance when bought by us ten years ago would have you all scratching your heads.

What i find tacky and classless is random people on the internet taking about someone's home making disparaging comments.

Apologies.

We have a three piece suite in our front room. With a dumpty obviously, we're not animals.

Snobby!

Noooooo a lounge has a couch 😁

Nice on the outside, naff on the inside.

It’s lovely

I am not sure, but I do not think working is necessarily more honourable than inheriting. Especially if the paid work makes the world more unequal, polluted, or narcissistic.

Are you referring to the scales on the sideboard in photo 5?

Only Fans

No, I was talking to the posters who were trying to defend new money as better than inheritance. Both can be problematic.

The house has a lot of potential and would be fun to change and has enough space to live in and experiment with changing it at the same time.

Not ever wants a large garden. This one is nice enough and big enough for most.

£625k is astonishingly good value!

I don't think class can be defined by house size or income.

That house is the sort of house someone on a very good middle income might be able to afford but that could be someone working class who is doing well for themselves financially.

It is bland and boring, devoid of personality and looks like the show home to me....none of that indicates class either.

well of course a front room has a 3 piece suite (and the long one is called a settee 😂)

On another thread a poster wanted to know whether she should accept a house with a downstairs loo and no garden, and on here there are horrible,snobby comments on a house which most could only dream of!

Who was talking about honour? I don’t think any form of wealth is inherently ‘honourable’. The point was merely about the disparagement towards ‘new money’. Why?

Is this a clever marketing ploy? Mumsnet are obsessed with class so it’s a perfect way to get your target audience looking at the listing.

Very shallow. Do you want people to categorise you, class-wise? Just be yourself.

If you need a house of that size, it's very nice, more than adequate.

It's also unbelievably cheap, you can't buy a three bed semi around my way for that price.
