"Unique and substantial property"

Oh my!

It would take a lot of money to get it up to scratch. It might need knocking down and rebuilding.

It's like Lawrence Lewellyn Bowen got together with the set designers for Crystal Maze and took a lot of drugs.

What do you mean about it taking a lot of money to get up to scratch?

I think singlenotsingle is thinking the garden needs a new roof when actually the mock ruined abbey courtyard thingummy is a desirable design feature.

But knocking the whole thing down and starting again is certainly one way to go.

My god that is awful: what have they done with the photos? It's so in-your-face it's overwhelming and you can't see what is going on. There also aren't enough photos.

You're right Wowfudge. We need more photos.

The kitchen looks tiny on the plan but maybe that's because the main rooms are freakishly large.
I'm sure they have a significant spider problem

I love it

What the Jeff?

Nope. I don't think we do need more photos. I think if you could seriously lay out 3m you could decide from what's there whether it's worth a viewing.

It looks like they've employed an artist to paint the rooms rather than take photos.

Surely if you can afford to build a fake ruined abbey and have friezes painted on your ceilings, you can afford to employ an estate agent who can photograph your property better?

OMG it looks like something out of the Addams family!!!! 😱

😂😂😂 it really does doesn't it @chickenfeathers

The inside is hideous and really uncomfortable looking, but I have to admit to rather liking the outside although I know that I shouldn't.

It's not helped by the HDR filter used on the photos. Hideous mock medieval/baroque mansion with yellow LED lighting and a multitude of paint effects anyone?

flood zone...

Wow just wow 😲

*to clarify not wow in a good sense

I used to work in Wraysbury. They're not connected to mains drainage. The septic tanks smell awful when they're emptied. I quite like it, apart from the septic tank.

Horrible: ground floor and lower ground? No way. Plus, the two floors are connected by a spiral staircase - not even a proper staircase that would be helpful for getting furniture up and down.

For £3,000,000 they are having a laugh.

Ooops. I see there is a small first floor area.

But still nope.

It just gets better & better - £3m for a mock ruin below ground level home in a flood zone with no mains drainage 😂. And that's before you start to consider the "unique" decor.

Yikes! I have to say though, I really admire the person who did that floor plan - Ive done a fair few of them but I wouldn't know where to start!

@Harleypuppy
you realise there are plenty of people living in the UK without mains sewerage (particularly people with large houses and grounds), and we are not suffering in a cloud of our own stench!! Modern sewage treatment plants discharge 99.8% per water, they are not just a hole in the ground full of shit!!

Aside from that,
I kind of like the garden. The décor is hideous though.
