How do you pick the worst room when they've all got their own charm...
... and did they really wallpaper the bath?
From the wallpaper pattern, it looks like the wall to the right of the window has the wallpaper hung in vertical strips. The bath and the wall below the window have horizontal strips of wallpaper, running in opposite directions.0 -

Have a look at the house price history. It has details for when they tried to sell in 2016.

That interior is utterly awful :eek: Why combine so many (hideous) patterns/wall coverings? Did whoever decorated - and I use the term loosely - actually think those combinations looked good together?
As for the kitchen - apart from the fact I'm not a fan of bathroom-style tiles being used in a kitchen setting (see wall of large tiles to left side) - what in god's name possessed them to put the cabinet doors on like that? Not only are the top handles out of reach to anyone under 7'* or not wearing stilts, but the base cabinet handles are at rodent-level, lol......handy if the local mice want to help themselves to a few scooby snacks :rotfl:
*ok, I admit, I exaggerate slightly

Not that I'm excusing any of it, but surely they maybe got the old cabinet doors from somewhere, and they are already hinged and have handles or something, so they couldn't change where the handles were? They really shouldn't have stopped and got new doors in that case.0

There is no chain so I assume it may be a probate sale which makes me feel a bit mean but it's quite a spectacle. Check it out.
