    The last sentence of the description makes me think that the EA is at a loss for words to describe it-or has a sense of humour"

    :D

    If I was the prospective landlord I would be livid with that - but then again most tenants don't want a bar and a fruit machine in the spare bedroom.

    The owner can't be that desperate to rent it out after so long... :think:

    Sorry to sound a bit dim but what does NFN mean? :huh:

    1 mile away? I'm guessing DD must live in Old Catton or Hellesdon then? ;) I'm not going to mock the area too much - I might even buy a house or (less likely) get offered a council flat near there one day. :eek:

    Normal for Norfolk?

    As poppysarah said, normal for Norfolk ;).

    DD is closer to city centre.

    I like Norwich :)

    2nd time it's been up for sale this year, and was up to rent too and all listings had these photos.

    All the walls have been painted black.

    I am surprised it didn't get rented being so close to the uni!
    Thinking critically since 1996....

    It's because it's still being refurbished. Allegedly.

    To rent to students you'd need to split the living room in half to make 2 bedrooms, most of the houses on that estate with students in have 4-5 students living in them.

    They said that last time though - not sure if it said 2 weeks in the summer but sure it said almost finished. Even a picture of the front would be nice.

    I'm close by so almost worth a nosey.

    Not a clue, except that it's ex LA and nobody in their right mind declutters that much. It's been done up by a developer.
