‘chalet imported from Switzerland circa 1882’

‘5 gaggenau fridges’

‘Gold parquet flooring’

‘Indoor beach’

!!!

mmmm... Indoor cat litter tray and horror house stairs where a serial killer can grab my fat ankles as I run for cover behind some foliage...

And I'd be terrified to take a dump in that odd shaped loo in picture 21... or is that some weird pod thing to another dimension??!!

Also I'd never get up into that pod bed thing, I'd do myself a mischief!

Its very dark as well... needs a naice lick of white paint.

Having just hoovered out my suitcase and whole house twice to remove the sand I seem to have imported from Spain - that beach is giving me nightmares!

Did anyone notice the man aiming a gun at you?

Is it a thing to have 2 baths in the same bathroom? So you and partner bath at the same time?

I’d rather a big bath to share, and not made to feel like billy nomates If I’m having a bath alone with another empty tub staring at me!

a dining room with an especially vulgar 18-seat Swarovski crystal table

But every home should have at least one (not sure why!!!)

OH. MY. GAWWWDDDD

Thanks Archmemory - made my day!!!

It's really quite incredible. I think it's a beautiful building on the outside, although not sure how it fits in in London.

The inside though has as many different styles as it seems possible to cram into one house. And none of them fit with the exterior. The indoor beach is really something else.

Oh my goodness. I can’t make my mind up if I love it or hate it!

OK, skin and BBQ cats first then hold beach party!
How much bodily fluid is a already in te sand though...errk

It's been up for sale for several years on and off it's just up the road from Hampton Court Palace and is on a very busy road

It's gonna be a hard sell

If you took a house and tried to make it as ugly as possible, this is how it'd look.

Not disappointed I clicked!

thing is , the house looks most attractive in photo 22 .

It's been shown on threads on here for years!

Omg I grew up round the corner from this and it was my dream house when I was a child.

I imagined wholesome Heidi chic... I feel a bit traumatised!

What a way to end a boring day at work! Thanks OP!

This must be what @MumsnetHQ is like! ;-)

This seems to suggest that it was sold for £980k in 2013 and £825k in 2006.

Was that before all the, umm, improvements? .

It's hideous!

Looks like an example of where just because you could do something, it's not necessarily that you should.

I’ve seen worse.

The only people interested in buying will be people who like to make 70s style porn.

Was it in Boogie Nights?

I don't understand the point of an indoor beach. Doesn't that just mean you get the most annoying part of going to the beach - sand sticking to your feet and trailing everywhere - and not much else?

For a house with so many windows it does seem very dark. I wonder how much the land is worth if it wasn't grade II listed.

As I'm nosy but on a mobile, could anyone zoom in and see what some of the books are?

I’d buy it in a heartbeat. It’s fantastically over the top, and down the road from HCP. I could ignore the road.*

*I think.

The pod bed looks quite sinister, actually.

Pic 3 is a dream and the cinema too. The rest, not so sure.
