Love this house. Think it should be a museum though rather than being modernised.

Link not working, think you've put the"here" in the wrong place?

AntoinetteCosway · 22/11/2013 17:26

Can't use the link.

Wow - amazing! would love to see that restored. Really rightmove should insist that the estate agents go back in a year or 2 to retake the pictures so we can all see the result!

Love the house by the way, but would have to do something with that bath!

It only needs a lick of paint and it would be perfect

AntoinetteCosway · 22/11/2013 17:30

Many cross posts! That's beautiful.

Flibbertyjibbet · 22/11/2013 17:31

Oh please please please don't let it be bought by someone wanting to just gut and modernise it.

I could just move into it as it is Smile

RunDoctorRunQuiteFast · 22/11/2013 17:32

That is really gorgeous, but can I have it for that price and moved to Berkshire please?

MrsPear · 22/11/2013 17:32

What a wonderful. I really hope that it does not get all ripped out.

3xM · 22/11/2013 17:32

Wow that's amazing how untouched it is. Reminds me of a girl i went to school with who lived in the house built by her grandfather, probably same sort of vintage as this house. It had the original gas lights and carpets and everything.

TotallyBenHanscom · 22/11/2013 17:34

Makes me sad to think just how many houses that have had the heart ripped out of them in the name of modernisation. That house is just lovely.

OddFodd · 22/11/2013 17:35

Wow - that's fabulous! Rewiring, replumbing, new kitchen, new bathrooms - £100k to get it habitable?

17leftfeet · 22/11/2013 17:35

I think they need to refuse to sell it to anyone who plans to modernise, split it into flats or turn it into a business

custardo · 22/11/2013 17:36

can you imagine how wonderful that bath would look

Tractorandtree · 22/11/2013 17:38

I'd so love that, shame it's not somewhere nearer London

senua · 22/11/2013 17:39

Aw, look at the windows in the other half of the semi.Sad

OddFodd · 22/11/2013 17:41

I agree 17leftfoot.

I really, really hate the way people ruin houses with vile, cheap double-glazing Angry

crypes · 22/11/2013 17:41

Why arn't they showing the kitchen? I bet that's too awful to even show.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 22/11/2013 17:41

Beautiful - and v near where I used to live.

pearlgirl · 22/11/2013 17:42

My gran had a bath with a surround like that but it was oval and huge - it was a great treat to be allowed a bath in it as a child because it was like swimming.

MummyBeerest · 22/11/2013 17:42

O.m.g.

It's like Beatrix Potter as a house!

I love it!

Oreocrumbs · 22/11/2013 17:47

I would love to get my hands on a house like that! What a labour of love, but how wonderful it would be if you had the money to have it all properly restored.

I really hope it doesn't end up being modernised.
