I think there's actually a nice house underneath it all but it's a challenge to spot!
(sorry, too new to post proper links)
But underneath the penchant for patterns - and the colour red - I suspect this owner is someone who looks after the bricks and mortar and that the house is in well maintained good order.
Even if not quite to my taste - it gives the impression this person looks after their home - which is what we all want to hope for if we are buyers I guess0 -

I was thinking exactly the same thing. It looks really inviting.0 -
This is very close to where I live (not mine). But is it a bungalow? And I'm not at all sure about the master ensuite... https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-64289869.html0

It's a chalet bungalow. Sorta half way house between a bungalow and a house proper. I'm used to them and it's what I would like ideally.0 -
That's pretty nice but for £775k I would expect the upstairs rooms not to feel like an attic conversion. I'd also like an attic.0

My experience of living in one is the upstairs rooms feel like perfectly standard rooms and there was an attic too.0 -

And me. Definitely not my taste but it feels as if a lot of love has gone into it:)0 -
Ours is a chalet bungalow too, we extended a bungalow to make it one lol.
The term chalet bungalow really annoys me.0 -
My 95 year old great aunt would love the floral wallpaper and fabrics.
Only room I wouldn't touch is kitchen - after removal of that dried stuff around window. Hall and landing, fine.
I hate those traditional baths as they are not easy to cleanThis is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0
