I have waited years to start a property porn thread, have just found the perfect listing.
This local property is a must see.

I've seen this one on reddit. It's so, so disappointing inside 😅

LemonLimeDivine · 30/09/2023 21:20

Good Lord no. I live near here and it’s a complete eyesore.
It’s right on a main road / roundabout.
I did hear a while back that the owner didn’t have planning permission for part of it and was ordered to tear it down but was fighting it.

Mum2jenny · 30/09/2023 21:20

Need a floor plan which is not provided. Obviously not a good choice without one!

404usernotfound · 30/09/2023 21:22

How the hell did anyone get planning permission for that?????

ZooMount · 30/09/2023 21:22

There was another thread about this house the other day!

Someone beat you to it, I'm afraid!

A brilliant Rightmove listing www.mumsnet.com/Talk/_chat/4907350-a-brilliant-rightmove-listing

Chocbuttonsandredwine · 30/09/2023 21:26

It’s decorated like a 3 bed semi. The bedrooms are tiny.

Also whoever took the photographs should be sacked… my cat could do better

Am speechless at price you could buy this near me and have £2m left

Nope. Moat and drawbridge or gtfo.

Spaghettine · 30/09/2023 21:40

Castle with UPVC windows, LEDs and low ceilings. And a driveway in the front. No thanks 😳

aablaster · 30/09/2023 21:43

Yuk

Auntieobem · 30/09/2023 22:02

teaandtoastwithmarmite · 30/09/2023 22:49

Whoever took them photos himself in pic 8 😂😂

Persipan · 01/10/2023 07:15

Not springing for the 360 tour is one thing, but the lack of floorplan is unforgivable.

DobbyTheHouseElk · 01/10/2023 07:22

Wow. I wonder why people build these monstrosities and then sell up.

whatsappdoc · 01/10/2023 07:44

49 photos and no kitchen? Or did I miss it in the repeats?

Frequency · 01/10/2023 07:46

Ew. No. I don't even need to open the link. I hope whoever does buy burns the thing to the ground and builds something new.

DD2 would probably love it. She loves a bit of property porn but she's very "new money" in her tastes (white marble everywhere and pools bigger than our entire house).

ivfbabymomma1 · 01/10/2023 07:50

The guy in the bathroom mirror 😂😂😂

Patchworksack · 01/10/2023 07:56

Did they list it themselves? Loads of the photos are of the same tiny bedroom. Spooky man in the mirror in the bathroom… no floor plan, no actual room dimensions. It’s hideous.

3WildOnes · 01/10/2023 07:59

It is hideous inside and out.

megletthesecond · 01/10/2023 08:03

That is the worst listing I have ever seen. Photos are awful. Rooms are tacky.
Where's the kitchen and garden?
Horrible house.

Frequency · 01/10/2023 08:08

Having now looked at the inside, DD2 would not like this. I was expecting the interior to match the exterior but instead, it looks like a 3-bed terraced house inside.

I'm guessing he spent all of his money on bricks and had to do the interior on a budget. The floor plan is also terrible with rooms that are either way too small or way too big and really low ceilings. Methinks he designed it himself in Minecraft or Sims and skipped getting an architect to do the plans.
