If you love a bit of modernism

This is for sale near me. The DC wouldn't even need to change schools. I think it's gorgeous. Sadly, I don't have a spare £1.2M. My existing house would barely be a deposit!

Externally reminds me of the science block at my old school.

I love this house. It was used for some scenes in the Channel 4 series Utopia about 10 years ago which was very dark and did feature a lot of murders. It was a brilliant series and I loved the house since seeing it then

I almost did a double take at this.

It's the spit of my secondary school.

So on that basis, it's a no from me.

Nope, not for me. I would hate all that glass, especially looking out into trees and would constantly be wondering who was lurking around. Especially at night.

I quite like some individual elements though, I am a mid centuries lass myself.

It does rain a lot but flat roof doesn’t actually mean flat. They are laid to fall, for drainage.

I love it, and the “flat” has been explained.

I do think the cost of heating might be an issue but perhaps the windows have been upgraded.

@DrPrunesqualer They are laid to drain and they still leak horribly. They're an awful idea.

Well, yes, to an angle of a few degrees.
Nonetheless, water has a habit of finding every tiny cranny given time, so I prefer to have it off my roof ASAP.
(Though we had a bit of flat roof, and it never leaked, it still gives me the twitch!)

I've been looking at this house for a while now, and my conclusion is that it is the most beautiful house in the world.

Probably a teaching assistant if it was a series by Harlan Coben

To build this in the 50s and have a 70s vibe is amazing. Way ahead of its time!
