This one looks kind of psychadelic, as though they've done something with the colours?

(Nice dirty rag in pic 3 as well!)

I love the lounge carpet. You could have hours of fun with the kids playing roll-the-pennies. Cheap enterainment!

It's huge - with a wee kitchen considering the size of the house. The only thing I don't like is the door in picture 2. It doesn't look like a door to a house. It looks like it belongs in an entrance to an office or a dentist's surgery or something.

That's exactly my first thought - looks like a hospital wing or something. (There is a converted hospital "estate" near to us which is similar).

Sorry Landy, not my cup of tea. Be boring if we were all the same though!

:rotfl:The local hospital does look similar.




Much of this part of the town, including the house in question and the hospital are late Victorian / Edwardian.

Just sold so off looking, I like this but the wife hates it. I must admit its go 0% kerb appeal & an extenstion thats ugly. You would not believe but it was a builder who owned the house & did the extension. The latest buyers have split up 18 months after buying it.

No draining board at the kitchen sink, and I wonder how safe that glass on the stairs is.

Thanks JackieB, no draining board???? I was expecting a " its needs a new kitchen":). I do agree with you about those stairs. they look a bit Austin Powers 60's.

Well yes, the lack of draining board is the least of that kitchen's problems.

Just noticed there's an opening window on that stairwell. Who's going to open and close that?

That's some flat roof extension! The pictures are better though. The kitchen doesn't look nearly as bad.

All of the hard floors in this one look like they are wet to me - or strangely then someone has been polishing flagstones? :think:

Are the gas rings on the cooker all usable? Looks like the 2 nearest the camera wouldn't fit a saucepan in the gap under the stairs?
