Do you think it was Linda or Lawrence that was responsible?!

I can almost hear the owners when choosing fittings: "Is it black, white, silver or red? If it isn't black, white, silver or red I don't want it. Cats included"

How many kettles do they need?

I'm not sure what freaks me out more, the china dolls in the cabinet or the dog cushions on the bed.

I also love the way that it is marketed as being in Rochester, when it is in the rather more chavy Strood! My brother does that. He lives in Strood, but leaves it off his address and puts Rochester instead. There is a blooming great river that divides them for goodness sakes!

It has clearly been looked after for a *few* years!

And then there's the red twirly twigs too (pic 4). :eek: :rotfl:

But that staircase (pic 7)... Aaarrrggghhhh! :eek: :eek: :eek: :rotfl:

Houston; we have a problem....

But I so want David Bowie to walk down it singing in a moon suit; it would be awesome :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

They must have been collecting milk bottle tops for aggggeeesss....

(mind you, I'm hardly one to talk; I really like the red/black pop-art wall paper and I have this to go on one wall in my house; it's great - if you have a couple of vodkas and stare at it, the lines move)

The house is mahoosive though, if you look at the floor plan - it must have an annexe on the back which would explain the price difference

I had that exact same carpet in picture #4!

My parents got a new one about 20 years ago, and gave us that one which was in very good condition. You got used to it. :rotfl:

It looks like a well looked after house though.

Just looked again and my parents had that wallpaper in in one of their bedrooms too, and I had the wood panelling in my kitchen as well.

I can taste the wine and tomatoes.... Now where did I put my deposit?.....

If you have to put the microwave on top of the hob, I think it's safe to say you don't have room for a microwave. Or to quote Mr Laurie "Compact and bijou Mostyn, compact and bijou"
