There are some interesting features in this house but I think picture 8 is the winner

£550k in Swansea!

Romanmurals · 05/02/2021 18:58

There’s Swansea and there’s “Swansea”. I do think that is expensive for a house that needs a lot of renovating, but west Swansea is an expensive bubble, very removed from the rest of the city and 5 minutes from the Gower.

Wow that wall! Definitely unique...

'There's nothing wrong with this house what the hell is op on... oh wait, blimey, yep that is quite the statement'😂

took me a while to see it!

JaimeLeeCurtains · 05/02/2021 19:08

Yes it's quite a 'statement' wall

MonkeyPuddle · 05/02/2021 19:10

I can’t make out what the design of the wall is. I can see vague people shapes.

Chicchicchicchiclana · 05/02/2021 19:12

I'm amazed at the price! I don't know a thing about Swansea but it seems so hugely expensive?

Indeed Grin

I zoomed in but couldn’t quite make out what was going on there... are these SEX PEOPLE Lynn?!

mrbensbaker · 05/02/2021 19:17

Well I never thought I'd see 'the joy of sex' featured on a house wall.

CanadianJohn · 05/02/2021 19:19

I can see the bas relief, but I can't quite make out what it depicts. Greek or Roman figures, maybe?

YellowandGreenToBeSeen · 05/02/2021 19:21

To be fair, it’s got a bloody lovely footprint and view. Just needs modernising. Could be gorgeous.

Sums it up perfectly!

They're Greeks/Romans?

Tulipvase · 05/02/2021 19:31

I didn’t look carefully but had assumed miners lol

PattyPan · 05/02/2021 19:32

Mural aside I wasn’t expecting to see a swimming pool either!

HappyTimeTunnelDinosaur · 05/02/2021 19:35

I think it's amazing for the price, with a few changes, I'd love a swimming pool!

orangenasturtium · 05/02/2021 19:37

I don't think they are Greeks or Romans, one of them is wearing a suit.

Sunshinedrops85 · 05/02/2021 19:38

I can't see the wall properly either!

shittingthreeeyedraven · 05/02/2021 19:38

It’s the frieze from the Parthenon 🤓 if anyone wants to be precise

rubabayaga · 05/02/2021 19:43

I'm curious about the previous owner - we also have a framed gold record and a grand piano on display...

Gcnq · 05/02/2021 19:47

It's lovely! I'd even take the sex wall...

TroysMammy · 05/02/2021 19:54

I was quite surprised not to see a Chinese rug. That's proper Swansea posh, especially if you look at the houses for sale in Langland and Caswell. They are not really posh, they used to sell them in David Evans and my friend and I had a telling off from a shop assistant there because we sat on a pile of them.

Out of boredom and curiosity I look at the more expensive houses for sale in Swansea and I'm usually disappointed with the kitchens and bathrooms. I expect it's because a lot of older people lived there and their tastes are still 1970's. Either that or the Mumbles set or Swansea Mafia some were called have pretty ghastly taste.

BeastOfBODMAS · 05/02/2021 19:55

I’d have loads of fun colouring in those reliefs before getting a sensible wall put in

MrsJamin · 05/02/2021 21:16

I don't understand what you're all talking about

wishywashywoowoo70 · 05/02/2021 22:43

That area of Swansea is very expensive due its close proximity to the fabulous beaches.

Swansea has lots of expensive houses which are a bit dated inside.

I wonder who owns it though. Gold record eh!
Bonnie Tyler has a house down that way but I don't think it was Mayals Green.

Mollymalone123 · 05/02/2021 22:48

Who lives in a house like this?
Grand piano
Gold disc on the wall
Sex mural in the sitting room 😂
