    Classy outside staircase. Reminds me of those waterparks where the slides go out of the building

    I think the taps could have been positioned better, on that bat.

    Potentially painful, where they are at moment!

    Stupid design choice - as is the position of the hob/oven squashed into a corner of the kitchen ;)

    Look on the right hand side of the listing for the house that was posted by curiousralphy. It says "Properties sold nearby". Click on "View more".
    The house is number 94. Click on the link and you'll get the pictures/details from the previous listing.

    Hope that makes sense :)

    Thanks, perfect sense :)

    Someone was on the sauce when they wrote this description, which I quote in case they change it later:

    "This property is situated in Henllan a village in Derbighshire approximately 2.25 miles northwest of Denbigh. This refurbished character cottage has a reasonable sized southe facing garden enjoying spectacular views over the countryside of Denbighsire and is in a close proximity of two primary schools of Refach-Velindre and Newcastle Emlyn."

    There's no such county as Derbighshire.

    Denbigh     the townis about 110 miles from this cottage.

    "Refach Velindre" is just a mis-spelling of Drefach Velindre.

    The cottage is actually in Aber Banc, not Henllan, but don't let any of the above put you off!

    And yes, the agent's address is a shed, but quite a nice one. If I were the vendor, I'd rather not help them pay the rent through producing this sort of tosh.....

    Clearly subsidence too as it apparently leans itself (for countryside walks)
    Officially in a clique of idiots
