Just as the title, I really do have no words to quite capture how I feel about this property.

However, I do admire that whoever currently owns it went full-in on following their own aesthetic.

Donald and Melania Trump's Essex retreat. 😂

Looks like one of those hen do houses.

I wonder what the design brief was?

I’d love to see this house on ‘Behind the keyhole’. “Who would live in a house like this?”

Is it Conor McGregor's house ? Cillian Murphy would be so flattered to know his image is in their bog . Amazing thing is that for all that stuff there are only 3 bedrooms .

Tommy Shelby in the bog, by order of the peaky blinders.

What's that saying....money screams, wealth whispers?

Took me a while to notice the boat shaped jacuzzi, the more you look the more you notice!

But why are some of the rooms so narrow??

Starlight1984 · 07/01/2026 12:03

I don't understand what's going on outside?! Is that a fake beach?!

MidnightPatrol · 07/01/2026 12:03

Amazing really….

… but who on earth would buy it 😂

And for £1.6m… it’s not like the house is up to much.

WearyAuldWumman · 07/01/2026 12:03

At first it was "Okay....just remove the giraffe..."

Then it was "Oh. My. God."

Itsokaytomorrowisanewday · 07/01/2026 12:04

I absolutely love it because it appears to be a well loved, well cared for home, creatively designed to the occupiers taste and for their pleasure, not to be on trend and fashionable. It brings me joy looking at the photos.

Toddlerteaplease · 07/01/2026 12:04

Love the beach area, but when would we get to use it in the UK? The rooms are a bit small!

Starlight1984 · 07/01/2026 12:04

I should hate it but I kind of don't 😆

Toddlerteaplease · 07/01/2026 12:04

The giraffe would stay. Love itN

RabbitsEatPancakes · 07/01/2026 12:05

I think this looks so fun, imagine kids parties there.
It is completely lacking in taste but it's very well done and fun for what it is. I'd much rather live there than a beige house.

God yes you could buy it and create a kids stay and play / party empire!

JasonTindallsTan · 07/01/2026 12:06

I don’t hate it 😳😂

Gahr · 07/01/2026 12:07

How absolutely hideous. It isn't even amusingly terrible. It's just terrible!

CautiousLurker2 · 07/01/2026 12:08

Wouldn’t want to live there personally, but I bet the owners know how to have fun.

CapabilityBrownsHaHa · 07/01/2026 12:08

My first reaction was that it looks like a council leisure centre from the outside. Inside, I liked the utility room. Weird that the rooms were so small / narrow. And was one of the beds a sofabed with the plastic remote pocket still hanging down? Sadly, I couldn't afford it. Financially or aesthetically.

I think it’s resin to give the impression that the boat (goat!) is in water.

I’m the same as others, can’t help liking it but wouldn’t choose it myself.

FrostAtMinuit · 07/01/2026 12:09

Better bad taste than no taste!

FeelingSoDizzy · 07/01/2026 12:09

I bet they'll have a lot of viewers with no intention of buying!

JDM625 · 07/01/2026 12:12

Its Chav-tastic 🤩

Rituelec · 07/01/2026 12:12

I love it.

SunnyViper · 07/01/2026 12:12

I kinda like the hot tub set up. It’s a pretty small house though.
