These bedroooms even outdo my teenager's room.

We had that one; I recognised the chemistry sets and the old telly from the 1980s.

I liked the "Take due care when inspecting" in the key features.

Some properties are especially unfortunate. Even when they have reasonable features, there are houses which suffer from a combination of taste-challenged owners, questionable EA presentation and, well, just bad luck.

Take this one for example, The EA blurb is verbose garbage, the kistch overwhelms the photos, and as for a floor plan, forget it; this agent can't even put a sentence together, let alone a scaled drawing.

However, that's not all. Go to the Street View and the location alongside the charmingly named 'Welsh Hawking Centre' is revealed, conjuring up images of Bob Fleming's younger brother, Dai, having a communal cough-in with his mates every weekend.

The reality may be worse. The aerial image shows rows of bird cages right behind the garden. Anyone who has ever lived within close proximity to a mynah bird or a budgie enthusiast will know where I'm coming from here.

The above + the sale board in Street View, possibly belying the 3rd December marketing date, would be enough to send me packing, but even the Highways Dept seem to have it in for this house. Across the road from the very dodgy looking entrance, a sign reads, " 43 casualties in 3 years including 4 deaths. Slow down."

Oh dear!

EDIT: A sale at or around the price advertised would net > double what the owners paid in 2011. If only I could achieve the same uplift on my place!

Why have they pasted "HIGHER GLEN" onto the first photo?

Not sure why but it's the name of the property.

Quite keen on silk flowers too, aren't they! I couldn't work out if it was a real cat on the bed, but I suspect not.

..."Access will be limited during the viewings and buyers are advised to wear sturdy footwear and take due care when inspecting the property" ... !!!!!!!!!
