In particular, I'd draw your attention to this room: http://img.findaproperty.com/miller-&-son/Redruth/dp75442192.jpg
I can't get passed the whole park-on-the-roof idea....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -
This is not particularly bonny although not as bad as some posted.

I can't quite work out the linked section though. Are there windows on the other side? Does this make it a 90 degree terrace?0 -

On the subject of bungalows, you know a house is an ugly duckling when the first picture on Rightmove is internal or the garden:

This one you have to wait until picture nine to see the lack of kerb appeal.
Or no pic of the outside at all, then you know it's got to stink.
Like this one - 10 photos, not one of the actual building:

Or this one - I know this building, it's next to the Immigration Tribunal, and it's horrible:

That road is a merde hole. Rough as hell. There's a little park nearby took toddler banks and baby banks there once.
Floor covered in syringes. Luckily I'm trained in disposing them.
I agree, it's a rough area (we're not far south of there, the other side of the Euston Road)...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -
Top one looks like it used to be a factory and I've never understood the need for no windows on the front of some houses. Yes they will probably have windows on the side but no hall window (left of door). Detached houses have main windows on the front & back with smaller ones on the sides much much better!
Couldn't agree more - otherwise it looks like the local maximum security lock-up....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

It looks very precariously balanced!...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

While possibly not the prettiest property on earth, London prices, close to both tube and Eurostar, a house rather than a flat. From the price think and hope it is freehold too. You could do far worse!0 -

You could do an awful lot better, though. For that money, it's a rough area....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -
