    The kitchen! :eek:

    I know. It's disgusting as well. But at least it doesn't have s**t in it. Not that you can see anyway, unlike the bathroom. _pale_

    As for the shower and the carpet *shivers*

    Just noticed the cleaning stuff on top of the cistern. Obviously just for show then.

    If they really want to sell that house they should pay for a deepclean, a skip and a lick of paint. Even a developer may be scared to take that house on in case they caught something. What is odd is that some parts of the house are OK- liked the mowed lawn...I mean priorities people!

    Houses are expensive around there as it has good commuting links into London and I was going to say "Because it has planning permission for an additional house"

    But looking at the Hounslow planning control website it appears to have lapsed on 18/3/2011, (unless I'm reading this wrong: http://planning.hounslow.gov.uk/Planning_CaseNo.aspx?strCASENO=P/2008/0328 or the EA knows something I don't)
    Come on people, it's not difficult: lose means to be unable to find, loose means not being fixed in place. So if you have a hole in your pocket you might lose your loose change.

    How long ago did the most of the country have the streetview car taking pictures? It was quite a while - almost 4 years here. If you look on the street view picture you can see the extension was there then, and the roof of the extension is still not finished.

    Mostly 2008/9. On the bottom left of street view, after the Google Copyright it tells you the "Image Date".

    So, it's old and scraggy on the outside, verging on requiring total demolition on the inside, it's about 200m from the fences of heathrow (as shown by the plane in the sky on streetview!).....
