I saw this property online whilst searching for my first home last year. I was very confused by some of the pictures back then as I could not see 'the house'. The pictures have now been updated and make more sense.

It has been up for sale for nearly a year and the price has been reducd by £35,000, and re-listed on Zoopla. Even with the reduction, I still feel like the chances of this undeniably lovely home(inside) selling, are miniscule, as it is so unconventional. The right buyer would be hard to find. I wonder what the homeowner was thinking when building it. Somewhat admirable that they went against the grain though.

What do you all think?

It's once of the cheapest 4 bed homes in WD23; most are at least £100k more expensive - so it's a bargain in that sense.

What puzzles me is why is was built underground. There are ordinary houses overlooking the plot so it's not as is it's a sensitive location (greenbelt or historic area etc). If they loved gardening, I could understand it more, but they clearly don't.

Love the idea, but flooding would put me off that, does it have good drainage systems?!

Not my taste, but it seems very nicely presented, and the decor at least is conventional and clean and modern-looking. I'm probably what would be called 'arty', as I'm an artist, but because of that I like a house with masses of windows and light, so not for me. And the actual decor is not arty- a little bland, if anything.
