Ooooh, harsh!
Actually, have to agree that it is expensive in that I've seen much bigger and bettr ones for less and in nicer parts of the city too. 2011: [STRIKE]Houses[/STRIKE], [STRIKE]weddings[/STRIKE], [STRIKE]cats[/STRIKE]

It looks like it was furnished by a couple with diametrically different tastes. Fluffywomankins in all of the rooms and blokey was only allowed a say in the bathroom, hence it looks like one of Hugh Hefner's on a bad day some time back in the 70s. Or an Albanian-run brothel/"sauna".
From the outside it looks like a perfectly nice house and probably will be once all that ghastly furniture and bathroom carp is torn out.0 -
it is on Russian drive too ha ha
a monument to bad taste0 -
