I'm very impressed at Rightmove galaxy coverage if Daleks view property.
But the listing should be clearer that it isn't a "true bungalow". I do think it's unfair if viewers travel trillions of miles only to find that the house is unsuitable for them.
So the dormer visible on picture 1 isn't enough of a giveaway for you?Make £2025 in 2025

I think you'll find those will grow in places as far north as Preston, Lancashire....and here's proof:

Indeed, if you were to go to the Logan Botanic Garden in Scotland, you'd see quite a lot of them!

This place feels really depressing.

Actually as Plumstead goes, that's quite a nice bit. I suspect the ghastly photos make the decor and overcrowded bedrooms look even worse than they are. Plus a bit weird that they are not using a local EA. Penge is (a) in a different world and (b) a really difficult journey, even with a car.0 -

Pic 4 - how could anyone bear that! Instant migraine for me.
That is truly awful. Have to say I nearly threw up over laptop when saw it first. Then husband asked what I was screaming at... Showed him, but he's obviously marginally less sensitive so just laughed and walked off to get another beer.
Migraine inducing is a mild thing to say about that decor! :rotfl:0 -
Shame that the EA only took a few pics and chose to feature a photo with manky kitchen units.

That's an amazing location, near the river and a train journey sometimes not much more than a quarter of an hour to Waterloo.
As for the standard of housing, nobody stays in Surbiton for how their house looks to those looking in.There is no honour to be had in not knowing a thing that can be known - Danny Baker0 -
This property has obviously been "staged" [STRIKE]poorly[/STRIKE], but they should have paid more attention to loo roll placement in pic 10.
