Don't people neutralise before selling any longer ?

[Milkasheika]

found this property on the Rightmove Android app and wanted you to see it: www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/145090202 Oh my eyes

Apart from the kitchen cupboard doors which could be easily dealt with, I like it. They have the same duvet cover as me. 😂

They don't neutralise anything round here (somerset) or do anything to the house the whole time they are there. Guaranteed you will have to refurb the whole place.

It's lovely! It has personality. Do you just like grey or beige maybe?

What a gorgeous flat.

For me there is less to change here than if it were grey throughout. Most of the wallpaper is in keeping with the property, though I think I'd change the geometric one.

Someone will fall in love with this!

I can only assume you've not seen many houses in your life OP, or have some very boring friends and family if you think that very normal looking flat is 'sensory overload' and 'way too much colour and patterns without cohension,' (think you mean cohesion?). Pretty much all the walls are painted either white or cream, with neutral carpets ffs, you can't get more neutral than that. By the time of purchase all the owners fixtures/fittings would be gone, it would be the work of a long weekend to change the one wall of feature wallpaper per room, and repaint the kitchen cabinets to get you the boring and passe minimalist flat of your dreams.

I think it looks really nice. I hate the orange but it wouldn't stop me viewing it and Nissan easily fixed. I think the rest is fairly inoffensive and quite plain.

That kitchen is a beaut! Much nicer than grey

That kitchen is GLORIOUS. The rest of it is a bit meh as far as I'm concerned, but if I were looking, that kitchen would go a good way to swing a decision!

The kitchen cupboards are pretty much the colour I want mine.

I’m going to save the photo of that kitchen for my next kitchen, I think it’s amazing

Yes, those kitchen cupboards are a gorgeous colour.
I think this thread is definitely driving interest for the property. People were expecting something awful, instead - it's lovely!

Maybe looking new builds OP.

I like it. I'd much rather see a house with personality than a drab magnolia everywhere type home. Colour, photos, decorations - they all say to me "we've been happy here". Bland and all personality put away is off-putting.

But I know that most people don't seem to have an imagination in homes that are not decorated to their own personal taste.

I absolutely love that , and the chest of drawers with the leaf patterns on , lovely

That bath's like a coffin!!

Apart from making that a walk in shower I think the flat looks really cosy.

It’s gorgeous! I’d buy it for the wall paper. And I’d never dare decorate a kitchen like that but I’d certainly keep it when someone has already been brave enough to make it work.

Totally! The ubiquitous grey carpets, stupid signs saying ‘Love’ or ‘Prosecco’, the formulaic kitchens and living rooms, the total blandness of most houses does my head in.

I like it and would probably keep the decor pretty much as it is but add a few bits to make it more ‘me’. I’d probably change the kitchen cupboards but I don’t hate them.

The kitchen is my favourite thing about that house!

I really love it, even the kitchen 😍
If you want a sensory overload op, there's plenty others that are a lot more colourful!

What a beautiful flat. I love the decor - much nicer than cream and grey.

I’ve looked at all the photos and can’t find the ones you and your dh are offended by @Milkasheika

I get the feeling I’d have sensory under load with your home choices!

I as expecting something completely different from your ‘my eyes’ description.

I do have questions about the bath though.

Yes, my first thought was to change that into a walk in shower.

Also, I have a question about the "box room" off the lounge - what is that? Is it a bedroom?
A box room here would usually be the smallest bedroom in the house, but in Scotland maybe it's a room for boxes?

I think it is a marvellous flat, spacious, characterful, central location. I would never get in / out of that bath though.
