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.

That is a fun home.

OneFootAfterTheOther · 07/01/2026 13:13

I love it! Total commitment to a theme. I bet they have a blast there.

Towie is filmed in Brentwood, that's the vibe here

hulahooper2 · 07/01/2026 13:14

you buy the house , the decor can be changed , make it your own

tara66 · 07/01/2026 13:14

Well - GOOD FOR THEM !!
It's a very positive, optimistic statement for these dull, dreary days.
But in my opinion they should have spent the money on a better house in the first place - not on that one!

RawBloomers · 07/01/2026 13:16

My first thought looking at it was AirBnB.

Agree with some others that it looks more like a place to stay in rather than live in.

Having said that, I'd kind of love the garden!

Part of me actually loves it 🤩😂 the part with no taste, clearly.

Same!

Hotdoughnut · 07/01/2026 13:17

I dont think it's that bad, actually! 🤣 The first thing I think is, those people clearly enjoy life and have a lot of fun parties. Wish I knew them :-)

MargolyesofBeelzebub · 07/01/2026 13:17

Looks like it was designed by a 6 year old. It even looks like a primary school from the outside haha.

But good on them for doing what they want! Not sure who would buy it though 😂

Best property porn ever.

SerafinasGoose · 07/01/2026 13:18

Thought it was some municipal sports centre! Frightening-looking place 😂

Footballers house, has to be! Can anyone explain the big glass thing in the utility room?

Its a big shower cubicle, with jets and lights. And probably the ability to be a sauna (if the seals dont perish)

SewingBees · 07/01/2026 13:20

My new housing ambition is to have a lounge large enough for a giraffe

X123x321X · 07/01/2026 13:22

It could be nice if they rebuilt it.

IsItSnowing · 07/01/2026 13:23

It would make a fun holiday rental. Not sure I'd like it full time but I'd put up with it for that gym. A lot of the decor would have to go though.
To be honest, it's a bit ott but I've seen worse.

Papyrophile · 07/01/2026 13:23

It is magnificent! For a weekend away, with kids, perfection on steroids.

EarthSight · 07/01/2026 13:23

Is this real? A lot of it almost looks generated by AI The office and the baroque ceiling!

These people have a sense of humour I think.

PumpkinsAndCoconuts · 07/01/2026 13:24

Nyeaccident · 07/01/2026 11:52

Yes that's how I feel I think, it's clearly someone living out all their dreams and I like it for that reason

Same! It‘s unapologetic, loud and it must have brought the owners great joy.

I wish I had the funds own and decorate a property that size precisely to me personal tastes (without any apparent considerations for cost or practicality)… It wouldn’t end up looking like this one but I would absolutely love if. So yeah, good for the owner! :)

silkypyjamas · 07/01/2026 13:26

Just had a voice of 'through the keyhole' running through my head looking at the photos... who would live in a house liiiikkee thhhiiiiiissss? Got to be a celeb surely?

KarriTreeSullivan · 07/01/2026 12:30

Fabulously Essex! I think the only thing they are missing is the lion statues either side of the gated driveway!

In my county there is a traveller family who built a house with two stallions at either side of the door. As the place is otherwise surrounded by stone, small terraced cottages or pebble dash houses, it certainly stands out.

ChipDaleRescueRangers · 07/01/2026 13:27

I love the pool area, I love the kitchen, the rest can get in the bin and is hideous. My child has just said can we keep the giraffe 🤣🤣

user665178392470 · 07/01/2026 13:27

Goodness that is quite something. The rooms look very narrow though, with the sofas nearly touching the giant TV’s!

christmassytimeagain · 07/01/2026 13:27

I don’t know why but I rather love it. It’s not my taste but there is spelling about it. It must belong to a footballer with that garden

333FionaG · 07/01/2026 13:27

Isn't the price a bit cheap for Essex? I quite like it, although it is a bit bold in parts.

thebabessavedme · 07/01/2026 13:27

It looks nice and clean
