Is that a giant moth on the cabinet in picture 6? There seems to be tree roots growing from the living room ceiling...

1837. Located within a small cluster of period cottages is this charming two bedroom property of attractive stock brick elevations

Would be a lot more charming if the neighbours hadn't rendered or pebbledashed theirs.

Big brass eyeball spots in the panelled ceiling aren't exactly period either.

This is bizarre. Didn't expect the front from the back!

Straight away I recognised it as ex RAF Officers' Married Quarters. My father was stationed there years ago.

I think it was probably built for the military, so that may explain the look of it. Nice house though, with potential.

Yes, it is. It's officers housing. Looks so much older from the back.

Top marks for that floor plan though.

what's with all the plates on the wall above the bath?

I'm more used to such things in a living room or dining room, but decorative plates on the wall isn't unusual is it? My grandma had a set with horses on which I loved as a child - I have them now, since she had to move to a care home and her house was sold. I shall have to think about putting them up once I get my own place.

I presume it is effective but the child gate in pic 3 amused me.

I think the sideboard my parents had when I was a child (would originally have been bought in either the 60s or 70s) was from the same range as the cabinet in pic 2, the handles look identical.

G-Plan I think. My parents had two units - they cost £2k each in 1979 and when they downsized found two smaller ones in the charity furniture shop for £75 each.

Looks like G-Plan to me too. My mother still has a dining room suite with those handles. It must have been bought around 1980.
