I think this may be one of the most boring houses I've ever seen

[Northernlurker]

here

The house itself is nice I think, a boring but big garden, good basic outline - but the décor..........attack of the 'shove flowery wallpaper up and that will be interesting' combined with THE BIG LETTERS everywhere, a very disappointing kitchen and even some twigs and shit randomly in a vase.

Weird that painting everything magnolia and removing the owners belongings would actually make this a more interesting house!

I think this is a nice house, but a mean post. A few cosmetic alterations for me, but generally I would be thrilled with it.

My house is seventies style, scruffy with lots of half hearted half finished DIY jobs but family and friends like it. I wouldn't dare post a pic on here. I'd die of shame.

Perhaps op you could post a link of a house that was non-boring? Not being snarky, I am just interested.

[Bearbehind]

I think the OP should post her own house for comparison

[Northernlurker]

My house isn't for sale . In any case as you may have guessed it has no letters or flowery feature walls.


Non-boring houses - hmmmmmm

This is not the prettiest house though the garden is lovely but the inside looks welcoming and individual (Though it does have twigs and shit in vases )

I love that but I wouldn't have thought a house called River bank or on a street called river bank in York would be the easiest sell at the minute!

[WaitroseCoffeeCostaCup]

It makes me want to cry...because that's the price of a 3 bed where I live!

[Northernlurker]

It looks like the ground rises up steeply and if it didn't flood at Christmas it's probably ok come what may but yes I take the point!

Waitrose - move North! York is a fab place for kids, decent schools etc and if your chosen occupation isn't available here it probably is available in Leeds........

[BigQueenBee]

I detest the décor, but aside from that nothing that a few grand wouldn't put right.
Most people hate my taste, think loud colours eclectic and bookish.
A home is what you make it.

[WaitroseCoffeeCostaCup]

Northern I went to Uni oop North! I'm too much of a wimp with the cold!

[Sparklycat]

That second house you posted looks a lot more boring than the first! And needs a lot more redecoration too....

[Lovelydiscusfish]

My word, the price of both houses is obscene! And I say that as someone currently living in a leafy southern commuter belt, which I thought was, itself, very pricey. I wonder what my house would be worth, in this house pricing system? I could only rub my hands in glee!
Both nice houses, of course - and all respect to the owners, who have made them lovely.

[AesopsMables]

Since when was it acceptable to post somebody's home on here and encourage others to slag it off?

As for 'removing the owners belongings' comment

[DameXanaduBramble]

Weird thread.

[SarfEast1cated]

Did you see the house that is on for £650k a substantial Georgian villa! Wow. I think the house op posted is pretty in offensive tbh.

Not at all sure why the OP is being taken up on this.

When someone posts on some weird-as-fuck purple/green house, no-one says it's a strange thing to post about. They all fall about laughing/liking/boaking, etc.

Yet this is seen as, er... out of order by some.

[PennyHasNoSurname]

Its naff (B&M shopping trip again??), but not at all boring. Most new builds are just boxes but this does have more character to it than I was expecting.

Turn that bloody bed round in the flowery room though!

[TranquilityofSolitude]

The River Bank house is just around the corner from me and it didn't flood at Christmas, by the way. Choose that one - it's nice here :)

[Roonerspism]

Oh gosh. I love the house. Just needs some paint in a few rooms the kitchen

At least you won't forget where you are in the bathroom.

[Mouthfulofquiz]

Not to my taste but it looks like us needs so little doing to it, and easy to maintain.... I'd be tempted!

[scarlets]

I don't like big letters or "feature walls" but I still think that this property is very nice. If I were house hunting in York I'd view it.
