Just saw a really interesting 1960s house

[Another2Cats]

I know many people go for period properties but I do really like some 1960s houses. This one, the interior hasn't been touched since then and it has a very "mid-century modern" feel to it.

It has 3/4 acre garden and is £450k in Knottingley, W Yorks

(no connection with the property - just saw it online)

it's FabULous

That yellow kitchen! 😍😍

Love it!

That is cool and quirky.

But some of it feels bought rather than authentic.

Absolutely LOVE it.

Did anyone else see the 'pure butter' dish full of oranges and get irrationally angry?

Or the bedside lights, only one of which can illuminate a bed?

DETAILS, PEOPLE!

It's very cool though.

Love the house. If it was more rural I'd buy it.

This is my dream house!

I grew up with that sideboard and dining set.
It just screams old lady to me.
I don't understand how it's back in fashion

It's a great find OP but I think it looks like a council maisonette block from the outside

Gosh what a find. It's fantastic.

i recognise this one - it’s been featured by Wowhaus before

personally I think it’s a bargain

I like it too! It has a good feel about it!

I really don't understand, I don't think they're claiming all contents are original? You have to buy things to have them.

I love it

"Or the bedside lights, only one of which can illuminate a bed?"

It looks as though that room may have been originally designed for twin beds? But now there's only bed in the room.

Wouldn't change a thing

Love that kitchen.

Also, if that’s Ducal furniture, then that’s highly sought after at the moment.

From picture 25, guessing the owner is an architect.
(sorry, just read article above)

I absolutely adore this house. My nan's house, although a lot smaller, was a bit like this right up until she moved in sheltered accommodation, although unlike this place, everything in hers was encrusted with a layer of nicotine deposits from her 40-a-day habit.

Gorgeous

Did it used to be flats?

I love it. I don't know why those types of houses - both the exterior and interior - seem to evoke calm? Maybe it's because they were all full of retired people where I grew up

What a beautiful house! I really like the yellow kitchen.

It's gorgeous but am I the only one who thinks it's probably damp thanks to single glazing, a flat roof and all that wooden fascia?

Absolutely love this. It’s in move-in condition.

What a far cry from the barrage of soulless newbuilds that get posted on MN with ‘why can’t I sell this house’. The answer to which is almost invariably because it’s a) overpriced and b) pig ugly.
