Who would live in a house like this?

[MarthasHarbour]

I am proud to present my first slightly dodgy Rightmove find on MN it looks so normal from the outside, but you never know what goes on behind closed doors

They like stripes don't they?

Hmm, tiled floor easy to keep clean I suppose, but too much like a sauna with all the wood, and lot of mirrors on walls in bedroom.

Why the hell has it got glazed tiles in the sitting room - it is in Cheshire, not Torremolinos.

What a grim house for 300 grand.

WTF

I'd never get any sleep - be too busy waving at myself in the infinity mirrors in the bedroom!

It's really fucking horrible, does someone live there? There is a whole room (that looks like a waiting area in a corridor) with nothing but an ugly sofa and a tv (and a wooden ceiling).

thanks for helping me LOVE my mess

At least you can carpet over the floor tiles. The ceilings are another matter. You'd have to pull them down then plasterboard and skim.

It rather looks as though they have tried to make the inside of their house look like a boat. Bizarre.

Anyone fancy this almost museum-like recreation of a bygone age? It's a nice house and a rather nice road (have been looking for a bigger place nearby to potentially move) but I couldn't cope with trying to undo all of this and turn it back to a normal Victorian terrace.

I bet it was lived in by Americans.

Even the garden is striped!

I've just spotted that the windows on the back of the house are tiny compared to next door. That's going to make the bedroom really dark... not that you'd want sunlight in there as the wallpaper would have given you a migraine.

That one I sort of like in a quirky bonkers way emsy

I would buy that Wirral one if I could keep the furniture. The one with all the wood plus the potrait of the dog, is very ]hmm]

Alot of it is cosmetic...could be changed easily enough. Looks like the house is a good solid house though with a lovely garden.

DH reckons if we bought that we wouldnt want to dig too deep in that garden for fear of unearthing Trevor Jordache...

I have another one! The poster on the wall of pic 9 just doesnt go with the Harold and Hilda's who live in this house!!

Chintz

Gor they love wood!

Italians. That's who. They LOVE glazed tiles in areas that are meant to be comfy. In Italy almost ALL the hotels I stayed in during a three month tour, had glazed tiles in bedrooms....that includes small family run house type places.

Christ that Altrincham one is worse. Jesus!

Emsy i am looooving the Wirral house

no really i am!

That last house is definitely owned by Arabs or Persians, totally seen that style before.

Wtf!!!

Must be Spanish with the wood and the tiles, houses on place in the sun always look like that - mingy

A hoy hoy

Its pretty random

Chintz house a la stately home! Good grief. PS are you taking my name in vain?

The first one is very very like a boat, DH said Wembley as soon as he saw the lawn
