I just had to share this www.propertypal.com/132-seacliff-road-bangor/723924/photo-33 . It's a lovely house right on the seafront but oh, my god the decor.

Why haven't they tidied it for the photos?
I rather suspect they did.

Cheermonger · 17/11/2021 22:23

I love it, wonderful house- imagine it without the weird stuff, bloody gorgeous

Toddlerteaplease · 17/11/2021 22:24

I think the wall paper and landing man would have to go. But it's an otherwise lovely house. Like the external colour too.

Gladioli23 · 17/11/2021 22:24

I actually think once you'd changed the curtains and the previous owner's stuff wasn't in it, it would be very charming: the wallpaper downstairs is quite major but I reckon with muted curtains and furniture it might actually work quite well.

And what an amazing view! The thought of sorting out the garden does make my heart sink though.

I quite like the bear looking out the window...

piglet81 · 17/11/2021 22:29

Omg, the bear looking out to sea has finished me off! And the terrifying landing man Shock

Great house. I’d definitely be repainting the front though!

HipsHipsHooray · 17/11/2021 22:32

Trying a bit too hard to be 'quirky/eclectic'

JurgensCakeBaby · 17/11/2021 22:35

I'd like to put an offer in on the basis it includes all of the bears, horses and man at the top of the stairs

NovemberNovemberDarkNights · 17/11/2021 22:37

I'd consider it if they left the bedroom bear & ONE tocking horse! & promised the okd bloke would GO.

That £££ buys you a pokey flat around here!(SE)

Arren12 · 17/11/2021 22:37

This is my house.

People are so rude.

Arren12 · 17/11/2021 22:39

Its not really. I have always wanted to say that on one of these threads Grin sorry

CommonRoom · 17/11/2021 22:42

Being sensible about it. Quite apart from the quirky decor, the garden would need a lot of work and there is only one bathroom. I think one of the bedrooms on top floor would need to be converted. So, there would be quite a bit of expenditure.

@Exasperatedcroc

I could live with the bears but the man on the landing is a step too far for me.
Everything is going to go with the sellers.

The only thing you'll be left with is the busy wallpaper.

Wafflehouse · 17/11/2021 22:46

I’m sad this house is up for sale, I’ve walked past it many a time, my dcs say hello to the bear when we pass it.

TheYearOfSmallThings · 17/11/2021 22:47

I don't mind the bears, but I don't think I could take a bath with that horse staring judgementally at me.

CalamariGames · 17/11/2021 22:48

So weird but I love the bear gazing out the window.

I would too! (Say hello to the bear)

Starseeking · 17/11/2021 23:11

They like animals then!

I would literally have a heart attack waking up in the middle of the night going to the loo disorientated, and being confronted by either that bear in the window or the man on the landing!

GreyhoundG1rl · 17/11/2021 23:18

Confronted? Confused. It's not like the occupants don't know they're there.

ThePunnyMonster · 17/11/2021 23:24

@Mybalconyiscracking

I wonder why they’re selling it?
Because Goldilocks just moved in next door
NewHouseNewMe · 17/11/2021 23:29

Anyone else wondering where they’re moving to next and if all the horses/bear will fit in? How I’d laugh If they were going to a new house on a normal estate. But I’d say they’re moving to a castle next!

I'm always a bit disorientated when I'm half asleep! I'd be fine with both during the day though lol

Time40 · 17/11/2021 23:43

Oh my god - all that wonderful house for under 400K! I love it.

Bluebellbike · 17/11/2021 23:56

When you look at it on Streetview it's called "Country Bumpkins" and Google has it down as a Florists.

The mannequin looks like Riff Raff from the Rocky Horror Show.
