"Bungalow" is a rather charitable description

It's basically a garden shed

The street view is hilarious

LauraNicolaides · 08/06/2023 14:09

Very unfortunate that its address is Woodburn Terrace. This does draw attention to one of the main problems with its construction Grin

AgnesX · 08/06/2023 14:09

Unless I'm missing something that's the epitome of cheeky fuckery.

HadEnoughSoTired · 08/06/2023 14:11

I'm assuming it was someone's home office at some point. I wouldn't give them £50K for it, it's awful

*goes to look at street view.

Not sure that meets national space standards (NSS). Even a 1b1p unit should be 37m2 with a shower (not bath). So not sure how that got planning...

Doggymummar · 08/06/2023 14:12

Stunning location but yes a shed

Hairpinleg · 08/06/2023 14:12

I'd rate it slightly higher than 'shed', maybe 'home office' or 'yoga studio'. Very odd that something of that type got planning permission as a stand alone dwelling.

It's not quite in the middle and definitely not in the highly desirable area of the town.

People booking on air bnb won’t know that though!

"Stunning location but yes a shed"

Just stunning. If you don't mind tripping over the laundry bags from next door on your way to sugar rush newsagents 🤣🤣

Florissante · 08/06/2023 14:16

Wow. (That's not an impressed 'wow'; it's more of a 'you must be joking' wow.)

What the hell...its not even a home office/shed. Its just "dumped" on the street. Makes me wonder if the original site was a public toilet which they knocked down and built over.

MooMooSharoo · 08/06/2023 14:34

If you go on to Google Maps actual website you can look at historic Street View which shows it used to be a hairdressers!

Have you seen it on Streetview?

That old streetview picture is not going to do it any favours - just gives an honest picture of how it used to look. What chancers Grin

Florissante · 08/06/2023 14:38

It's a garage.

Oh my god! Just seen it on street view.. It might be nicely converted but it's location leaves a lot to the imagination..

Florissante · 08/06/2023 14:54

I'll bet it's freezing cold in winter, too.

ApolloandDaphne · 08/06/2023 14:55

I live in St Andrews and know exactly where it is. It will never be bought as a swanky Airb&b. It will be snapped up by the parents of rich Americans or Chinese students (or any other rich overseas student) as digs for their little darling at uni.

Loads of places are below 37square metres

whycantmenfindstuff · 08/06/2023 15:53

Suitable only for Air Bnb surely

thirdfiddle · 08/06/2023 15:54

Desperate student accommodation shortage in St A according to friends. They're hoping for rich parents with a child who's failed to find a room I reckon.
