It's "set" to within an inch of it's life and any hint of personally removed but what do you think? I don't like it. The kitchen would have to go (although I love the views!) and the rooms seem a little small.

A bit bland.

It's very ordinary. But that's her style. She's not distinctive at all. She's very mainstream. I find all that grey and those hard floors everywhere very cold and clinical. Bit depressing. I'd prefer more variety of texture and some warmer colours.

Where is her tv? Or is she one of these people who likes to pretend she doesn’t watch tv.

I wouldn't have thought it belonged to an interior designer. It looks pretty dull and dated.

They should take new pictures now it summer, I'm sure the surrounds would look much nicer and the property less drab looking

Yes that layout of walking through the toilet room to get to the bathroom is very odd.

maybe a bit over priced if it's been on the market that long, so many aspects don't appeal to me either, outside looks scruffy and the filed being linked to the decking, what's that all about ?

Wow, if it's STILL on the market, she's been trying to sell it for a year.

Horrid kitchen. Cold clinical floors, flat damp scenery, but I like that it’s white and uncluttered.

I just had a look at the listing (still on market, price reduced last year)

House is decent size but two of the bedrooms are a bit small. The decking and raised beds look really filthy!

It is on the market: www.rightmove.co.uk/s6p/73044766

Weird master bathroom (which is almost bigger than our flat!) You almost have to walk over the toilet to get in and out.
Looks like the garden might smell a little "agricultural".
Not for me.

I'm actually not keen on the view of the muddy field and it's all a bit flat.
It's strange how the decking backs straight onto the field.
I really like the front of the house though and the living room and bedroom in the photo.

It's beautiful. Couldn't complain. And cheap too!

The kitchen is downright ugly.

I'm also surprised to see those dated naughties, high backed dining chairs!

The kitchen island is awful. I can’t work out if she only has a tiny bit of garden, ie the decking or if it extends a bit into that field area

Very underwhelming.

She needs to Viakal her shower drain a bit better Grin

But handy for chatting to the farmer as he ploughs!

It also got dropped £20k so it can't have been that well priced.

It would need completely redecorating to suit my tastes, I hate all the grey. Also a bit weird how the field comes right up to the decking with no sort of boundary, I would need to put something up

Most people's estate agent photos are 'set'
I think it's lovely, i wouldn't have put that tatty winter garden pic in there though!

Awful. Love the garden, though.

Beautiful views. Kitchen is awful and the bathroom is very harsh. That's a house that needs to look lived in, comfy, not staged and soulless.
