Just a perfectly ordinary flat. Nothing to see here.

Nope. Nothing unusual at all.

God, that's depressing. I'd be stark staring mad after a week in there

@Lollipop858

I live nearby I’m tempted to go and check it out 😂

Ex swingers club?

Old man in a life crisis with too much money?

Clearly it is in fact an Olympic athlete training for 2024. Who's fallen on hard times. And gone on the game. And is a martyr to nappy rash.
LuluBlakey1 · 29/03/2022 23:17

Grim- every inch of it.

MuggleMadness · 29/03/2022 23:19

Oh go on @Lollipop858 & then report back!!

You might need to tell them you WFH
😉

How do you get to the second kitchen? I can't work out where it is relative to the rest of the flat!

MuggleMadness · 29/03/2022 23:20

@Viviennemary

I quite likd it. Grin
Of course you do. You're a salmon!
Carrotten · 29/03/2022 23:23

But even if it is a porn studio/brothel that doesn't really explain why there's a full pool and sauna in the living room, and then a second kitchen off the pool/under the sofa?

There's quite a bit of food in kitchen number 1 so someone at least eats there

The most intriguing part is the fairly new looking kitchen 2, which doesn't appear used. Off the swimming pool

Blueroses99 · 29/03/2022 23:23

Are the stairs through the walk in wardrobe?Confused

Carrotten · 29/03/2022 23:24

@NothingIsWrong the second kitchen is down some steps off the pool, underneath the sofa/weights area. It has a curtain to separate it from the pool

Ah so it's a lower lower ground floor. How utterly bizarre and horrible and in general completely insanitary

How do I follow this thread.
I need to know if someone goes to view it 😂

HollowedOut · 29/03/2022 23:26

Imagine trying to live there with a crawling baby. Was it a gym before? It’s all very hastily converted, you’d think they’d at least fill in the sex pond in the middle of the sitting room.

@GeodesicDome

'These are sex people Lynne!'
Haaahaha!!

Or should that be
“” AHAHHHHHH!”

@NancyDrooo - and do your dream houses feature dodgy furniture and grubby decor too? Seems to be an essential ingredient of mine that I find the space but I need a grand vision to reclaim it. As I say, this flat is eerily like something from my subconscious come to life...

GroggyLegs · 29/03/2022 23:28

Clearly this is a hydrotherapy centre.
Thats why there are seats in all the showers. For the infirm clients to sit down.

I'm most disturbed by the naked bags of cereal stacked on the extractor. Where are the boxes? Why so much cereal?

A mystery wrapped in an enigma.

RosesAndHellebores · 29/03/2022 23:28

The 2nd kitchen is obviously for the resident mermaid who can't climb the stairs.

TBF I thought possibly for someone disabled who needed the pool/sauna for hydro therapy and the gym to maintain strength or something. Also very untidy in parts.

MaryGubbins · 29/03/2022 23:28

The stairs are through the main bedroom which. So odd. Surely a brothel you’d want a private bedroom?

Why would you need 2 kitchens but only 1 private bedroom?

runningpram · 29/03/2022 23:30

but it's bizarre it's 850k. There are some lovely 2 beds in that exact area, sans swimming pool but less of an 80s brothel vibe, for around 500k

FannyFifer · 29/03/2022 23:31

The more I look, the weirder it gets. There's also a glass floor from the manky living room looking down onto pool, has a rug or something over it.

Carrotten · 29/03/2022 23:32

Also both bedrooms have big patio doors that face each other and it's hardly private

There's stairs through the walk in wardrobe and also spiral stairs from the main room

Hertsgirl10 · 29/03/2022 23:33

I like it 😂

Sometimes they’re dark and forgotten, other times they’re perfectly liveable. I once accidentally broke a panel in the back of my fridge and found a tropical beach behind it, as you do.

Jonad · 29/03/2022 23:34

As the estate agent I think you’d definitely want to make sure the property was empty before you showed visitors round...

GreenTeaPingPong · 29/03/2022 23:36

Surely if it was a brothel the bedroom(s) would be a bit more... something - luxurious?

Maybe a PP is right and it is a private hydrotherapy pool.
