  • 6 bedrooms.............but only one tenant.:rotfl:

    looks like the property has been sublet . I would hate to live there - it looks cold , damp and unwelcoming.

    Private residence "absolutely stunning" if you don't take too close a look at the walls by the look of it.

    Somewhat confusing to have the first picture being one with a corrugated iron roof - presumably that's the cattery.

    It would have helped if the EA had made that plain from the outset - for those of us who live in (or have moved to.....) a part of the country where a roof (or part of it) is occasionally corrugated iron and even the occasional building is too....cue for double-take on passing them....

    I don't think it's possible to take a close look at anything, as it seems to have been shot with a 'phone, and an old one at that.

    No problems there with misrepresentation via wide angle lenses, no artsy shots, but no kitchen, bathroom or living room either, just the waiting area for the cattery and someone's bedroom.

    It's not that bum on the wall that needs attention, but the agent's, which should be kicked hard for producing such utter garbage.

    difficult to say whether its "absolutely stunning" as there aren't any external shots of the house itself. I'm certainly not interested in paying that sort of money for a cattery.

    ( I think I know where it is but streetview doesn't give a decent view of the house if its the building I think it is)

    from their website it looks like they are primarily interested in businesses, not residential property. Begs the question why the owners chose that agent rather than a more local one who would have put the emphasis on the house rather than the cattery.

    i am from near this area, and can confirm there are some amazing views . I am amazed that that ea hasnt bothered to take any photos of the scenery because it is for certain a selling point to the property. I have a feeling this property has been on the market for a very long time as well ( at least 2 years and possibly longer).

    ETA - I dont know for sure where the property is but i can tell its in Bradfield Valley going off whats in the background in some of the pics - these are the views :-

    Photo 9...

    Sorry but !!!!!!??

    Picture 4 I just spent ages looking at, that's one helluva crazy room.

    In Through the key hole style... I wonder who lives in a room like that?

    Definite a house I wouldn't visit in the dark, that's. freaky.
