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

firkin ell :O

A Norwegian who is pining for the fjords. And who has a parrot, who may or may not have ceased to be.

I've noticed a lot of the horrible ones have the same kitchen as my very first house. The dark wood one which usually has beige tiled work tops and walls with pictures of fruit and veg on them. (see the £1m Chigwell bungalow for reference)

I didn't shed any tears when that kitchen was ripped out!

strange bungalow:

sorry!

The bed in page 8 of that bungalow in Wychbold (where is that?) looks like it has a corpse in it.

Strange decor but lovely outside space and surroundings.

Must have been whoever occupied the now empty bedroom!

My sister told me about one of her friends putting in an offer on a dump of a house down her road. I knew exactly whIch one she was talking about because I'd been nosing about on rightmove.

She said that one of the boys lodging in the house was in bed watching tv while they looked around . The next door neighbours offered them a cuppa - I think they were probably a bit desperate to get new neighbours.

check out the bathroom

Do I win with this one ?

Mind you, if we had the money (plus a bit extra for redecorating ) I would really love to have it!

Blimey, picture 8 - the man in the room!! lol
you win...
I'd love it too

I spent ages trying to decide whether the man was real

Some of these a just glitz-tastic

Here's a beauty, a bit understated for me!

saintly, me too!
maybe, I think you could be right...love the staircase though.

maybe that house in Rushden - bloody hell! It is quite charming in its way, would love to meet the person who owned it.

Rushden is under offer

Rushden wins! The house was only built in 1989!

GetOrf, isn't it something else?The amount of detail is amazing and it just sits in an ordinary suburban no-through road with a mixture of semi and small detached houses.

I wonder if the new owners are buying any of the paintings and furniture or just going to Ikea !

The first house with all the wood paneling sooo reminds me of my fathers horrid house!

If that's what happens to you if you have loadsamoney, I am happy as I am. Oh my. My eyebrows have disappeared.

I cannot imagine who would do up a house like the Rushden one. A newly built stately home wouldn't be decorated like that I don't think.

I am a bit though. I am sitting in a chair just like that buttoned leather tanned one in the third picture though (red room). It does have stuffing coming out of the arms and have just reassured myself there are some old woodworm holes in the feet. Reminds self to have them (a pair recovered and updated a bit.

Reassured to glance round room at dd sprawled on sofa with throw half on the floor and some nice, plain cream walls that could do with a freshen up.

There are several houses on this thread that appear on my in-laws 'dream home' list !

maybe i am humbled by your choice, perhaps you should purchase this stately home and invite us all round for cucumber sandwiches

Martha I would, but somebody has beaten me to it, it's under offer! Damn and blast!!!

Just shows you that you don't always have to declutter or 'remove your personality'
