I confess I know nothing about Art but I think this is hideous!

Its on sale in the same area in which I live. Former owner a renowed artist apparently. Its a good price probably cause noone will want it

Am I alone in thinking its hideous? Where would you even start in updating it?

Goodness. That's a lot of different styles in one house. Someone will love it, probably...

It's a bit much for a 3 bed semi/end of terrace, but the artwork is beautiful!

omg. Game of thrones meets Up Pompeii, I'm half expecting Frankie Howard to pop up behind one of the doors!

It's very impressive. Definitely not for everyone, as this thread indicates- but I love the thought of the artist who lived there creating his own Roman Villa style home near Helensburgh. It's bonkers and fun! I hope someone who appreciates it buys it and keeps the murals.

It's very dark. I quite like the stairs. I can't decide whether the bedroom is quirky or truly hideous. As other pps have said it makes a change from uniform grey.

£115k for a 3 bed property?! I'd bite their arm off.
As pp have said - at least it's not grey.
No daft affirmations painted on the walls.
Someone has been very creative, it's not to my taste, but it would be easy enough to change.

And?

It's very personal. If you like the Pompeii look, this is your place. I don't care for it visually and I think that stone would be a misery to keep clean. For me it would be a gut reno. That's why it's priced low, IMHO.

It looks tierd so I imsgine it needs a lot of work. One for a developer.

I love the bedroom there's something Roman about it. Other bits I could take or leave but I think the kitchen needs to go

I love bits of it!

For the love of God - which bits?

As opposed to what - grey velvet and a sparkly chandelier?

It has character and I bet the owner is very interesting!

For the most part it's just paint on plaster so I could of coats of Dulux will sort that out. The bedroom will be a pain to fix, 3d stone effect on the walls to tear off, those plaster details on the ceiling might damage what's underneath. The bathroom is perfectly nice. I quite fancy doing it up just to see the difference.

Are those the only two choices?

I think it's quite fun, dont get me wrong I dont want to live there, but I love it when someone does something totally individual to their house rather than whatever is in fashion or whatever sells well

I don't know the area but looking at the other property that comes up at the bottom of the listing it appears quite reasonably priced for the area as if the cost of redecorating has been taken into account

I’d think they were inspired by talliston https://www.talliston.com/the-rooms

God I wish these types of threads would stop. It’s clear someone loved that home. Probably someone now elderly or unable to do the upkeep. OPs never show their homes for us to laugh or sneer at. Just nasty.

I really respect people who make their home their own little paradise, whatever that looks like to them. You only have one life after all.

It is hideous.::::: I love it

I like bits of it, but the bedroom feels claustrophobic to me. I like the stairs and the living room though.

The kitchen is tiny and there's no bath, so it wouldn't be one for me, but I like the unusual decor on the stairs and living room. Not keen on the bedroom, like pp said, a bit claustrophobic. Looks like it's nice and near the coast.

See I do love art and know about it but it’s not for me, it’s just not my style (Neither is a clear white box aka new build).

I loved it enough to look up teaching jobs in Rhu!
Seriously, the kitchen needs an update - I know, because I have the same bloody one but I like the rest of it.
My concern would be how it's been heated and how the walls have been treated.
It looks like there might be damp and other hidden horrors underneath - again, like my own now.
If I didn't have kids in secondary, I'd consider moving. Have always dreamed of living in Scotland. Tell me everything wrong with the area OP to make me feel better!

Seeing how run down the rooms that haven’t been decorated are, I’d be worried about what is behind all the wall decoration etc…

And yes it will require a lot of work.
And for 3 bed semi, I actually think expensive seeing the amount of work needed
