I know Stoke Newington in London is an expensive area but really!

I'm assuming it's currently rented out and the landlord doesn't want to miss out on a penny of his/her rent.

What a pokey wee house.

GooodMythicalMorning · 06/04/2018 13:10

It's so expensive. Just been looking at houses. A house like that near me wouldn't be more than 400,000. But yes, it needs a tidy.

DearTeddyRobinson · 06/04/2018 13:10

God!! I would be mortified if pictures of my home in that state were posted on a property website. Owner or tenant regardless.
I lived near Stoke Newington before it gentrified, it was a bit of a shithole. Can't get my head round £1.25m!

GrumpySausage · 06/04/2018 13:13

I love how in some pictures Bryce just draped towels in the hope we won't noticed the clutter.

Hey couldn't even be bothered to move water bottles of the coffee table.

GooodMythicalMorning · 06/04/2018 13:14

Also what was the point of putting the washing in the bath. Probably looks worse there than it would've done leaving it wherever it was.

Flightywoman · 06/04/2018 13:17

That makes it look small and pokey and lacking in storage.

It's probably not all that bad, it's just very cluttered!

£1.2 mill for a small grotty shitholeEaster Shock

TSSDNCOP · 06/04/2018 13:18

God I hope it’s the actual owners that have left it like that. You’d cry if you had it leased and had to clear that lot up.

Tottyandmarchpane1 · 06/04/2018 13:19

I Suppose this makes them case for a professional estate agent - rather than an internet diy site - who would hopefully push some of that out of the way before taking pics. I know not all do but the good ones would.

GummyGoddess · 06/04/2018 13:22

Could have at least put the toilet lid down!

When we sold our house the photographer had me moving stuff in and out of rooms while he took photos.

KiraL · 06/04/2018 13:24

Eeeeeewww the toilet Confused

1.25 MILLION POUNDS?!?!?!?

No wonder there is a housing crisis.

I'm in sunny Scotland, so I haven't paid as much attention to this as I should have.

That's an awful lot of money for not a lot of house.

I live in a gorgeous town in Scotland, and we've just bought a 5 bedroom, 4 reception house, with outbuildings, and a HUGE garden, and we didn't even pay 1/5 of that.

TokyoSushi · 06/04/2018 13:35

Gosh!! It's that really how much people would pay for that house?! Is it made of gold??

I do wonder as estate agents why they don't say to people 'you need to tidy your shit up before we take the photos!!'

StormcloakNord · 06/04/2018 13:35

Is this some kind of sick joke? That looks like a fucking hovel. 1.25 million?! I'm honestly gobsmacked.

I could buy a castle where I live in Scotland for that amount.

What the fuck

starsandstuff · 06/04/2018 13:39

The only time I can look around my two bed terrace and truthfully think its better than a house costing £1million+, so cheers for this Grin

MinorRSole · 06/04/2018 13:39

Some of those rooms look a good size, all the crap in them makes it look small and dark though. And the bathroom! Put the toilet seat down, but clean the toilet first!
There's a 5 bed detached near me currently going for 250k - so glad I live in Scotland!

glitterbiscuits · 06/04/2018 13:41

10 houses that size near me.

I have to admire their I don’t care attitude though. I could do it.
What would the neighbours think? Wink

StormcloakNord · 06/04/2018 13:42

@MinorRSole are you quite rural? That's really good. We just got a 3 bed detached for 234k but we live quite near one of the big cities.

spanky2 · 06/04/2018 13:42

The seat is up on the toilet to show the stained bowl.🤢

smartiecake · 06/04/2018 13:44

How much? Thats an absolute joke.

MinorRSole · 06/04/2018 13:44

Very rural and northern. Prices just don't reach what they do further south although our pay is pretty good. I'm not near then capitals/oil capital though so haven't been affected by their increases

thecatsthecats · 06/04/2018 13:47

Am I looking at it wrong or are there two bathrooms, not the one stated?

StormcloakNord · 06/04/2018 13:47

We're just south of an oil capital (couldn't be more outing if I tried, meh Grin) and the property market here has actually taken a bit of a dip. It's a buyers market at the mo absolutely nothing is selling for market value.

yellowfreesia · 06/04/2018 13:48

Surely even by London standards that's a joke?!

lalaloopyhead · 06/04/2018 13:50

Wow! Is it a repossession maybe? No one would be happy with those pictures surely??

And £1.25 million!! I know it is right in London but even so, who affords these (dumps) properties?
