Potentially lovely house - but looks like the caped crusader has paid a visit in pic 10 http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-30529624.html

Well spotted! Is that a picture of the Queen and Philip on the sideboard in the hall?!

What is it with decorating? Do you suddenly stop noticing the house is looking tired and dated when you reach a certain age or does the will to decorate fade with age like the libido?

My Gran, Bless her refused to purchase anything or redecorate after she hit 60 because ... she could die next week.

The house looked like time warp.

She lived to a grand old age of 98.

They could have tidied up a little!

Also, I wonder if the EA thought that having some of the photos off focus would mean people wouldnt notice all the mess.

And how handy to have a desk bureau in your bathroom! :rotfl:
How many different pieces of furniture can you fit into one house!

Hmmm, the choice of wall hanging and bed/bedding in picture 4 makes me a little suspicious!

Is that a "guest" bedroom where you have a choice of towel instead of duvet? That room is moonlighting as a massage parlour methinks :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Chances are the toilet is going to back up sometime. There's wet wipes on the cistern, but no bin to put them in.

This is at the end of the road I used to live in up until I was 10. Never realised that this hid behind the huge granite walls.

Love the wallpaper in the bathroom!!!
Also for a house that looks this nice outside, why is the kitchen so bar and shabby???

Good grief, that is an AMAZING house, although you're right, the bathroom wallpaper is astonishing!

Am a bit confused about pic 5 though, can just imagine the conversations; "Shall we sit and have tea at this table? Or should we ring the changes and sit over at that one today?" :rotfl:
