Could someone lend me about £800k so that I could buy it and do some work on it, that would be grand.

It even has servant quarters

I spent one of the worst days of my life in Dundee.

Still, you get a lot of bricks for your dosh up there [looks round at the four walls of her extremely humble and unbeautiful abode that cost a kings feckin ransom because it is in SW London]

Oh my life, noeyedeer, there truly are no words. I think that may be the most jaw-dropping house we have ever had on here.

I love how you get to picture 16 and it looks like a monk's cell, till you realise that is only in comparison to the dazzling vistas that have gone before.

I know what you mean about pic 16.

Holy moly. It's like if Katie Price and Michael Jackson had decorated a house together.

Devora, come and join our apparently newly-formed Dundee MN commune - we'll replace your terrible day with fond memories Wink

Shock I got to picture 5, NoMore, and thought, "Well, how can it get worse?"

And then it did Grin

That house makes me lose the will to live. I actually don't see how you could live there without compromising your mental health. Where on earth do you buy gold shower curtains, anyway?

I was thinking I liked this one and then it showed indoors and it all went horribly wrong Grin

have had to namechange just to say that we live just down the road from OhHelp's jaw dropping house.

I think I have linked to it before on MN but it always warrants a look. DP and I have always wondered where the hell you go to buy that sort of stuff. We also like to imagine the poor estate agents face when he turned up to value and photograph it

When I first saw it from the outside it looks as if it might have a resident ghost. But I love the staircase.

How could you not go? Make sure you report back.

Nomore
That one makes me think that the other rooms are horrible cause why else would he take dozens of external views but just living room, kitchen and bedroom?

What I want to know is why there are 5 pictures of a statue doing a handstand? I want to book a viewing...sadly I don't have a spare few million to do the place up Grin
