To be fair this one has only just come on the market and perhaps the EA has not managed to add room sizes yet, but if I was thinking of spending half a million in the Cambridgeshire fens (just up the road from a rather notorious traveller site too) I think I might want a few room sizes as the only picture of a bedroom makes it look as if you can hardly get in the door and that must be the worst kitchen photo for a house in this price range I've ever seen. Why oh why oh why don't EA photographers ask vendors to remove tea towels and oven gloves draped over everything?

Well - I'd certainly find it necessary to know the kitchen size - as its not really possible to tell from the photo and they clearly find it too small for them (ie with the amount of stuff they've tried to "find a home for").
I guess a lot of stuff in any given part of the house is a dead giveaway of "I find this part too small for me" and the would-be buyer will then wonder if its big enough for them either. In my house I worry that if I ever manage to move on that it will be clear that my kitchen, garden and the bedroom I use as a study are all WAY too small for me (ie because of the amount of stuff I've had to cram in somehow into them).
Having said that - nice house basically and the size of garden would attract me a LOT (if I could afford a house that expensive) - but up the road from travellers - not as a gift then....0 -

OMG! There is nothing in that house that doesn't clash!!!
And the garden, do they live on a slope? It looks like the contents of the garden have slid across to one side.saving up another deposit as we've lost all our equity.

I rather like it, but then I'm fond of bright colours.The garden 'design' is really odd, though - it looks like a public walkway to me.
