Spot the dog.

Times must be hard. That was reduced from £7million to £5.2m
they've been trying to flog it since October 2022.

Depreciating faster than an Omaze prize. 

Not ashamed to say I had to Google that reference.

I'm obsessed with the details of the bathroom in picture 24 (the wood ceiling! the feature tile! the blind! the curtains!)

I don't think I've seen pale blue sanitary ware before.  That's the kind of house you'd feel obligated to take your shoes off at the door - and if you didn't, you'd probably be asked.  It's very nice.  The house next to my parents' place was a smaller version of that - the wife just cleaned inside full time and he did the same outside.

I always assumed that the writer of the Hyacinth Bouquet series had lived either in a household like that or knew one very well because so much of the small detail rang true.

Image 12 is a close up of the rather attractive frosted glass of the bathroom window.  Said glass will inevitably end up in a skip after a member of the paint it grey mob inevitably buys the place, takes one look and screeches 'the vibes inside of here give me the ick'...

Yes I get it’s a close up of frosted glass, but thought it was a bit of a pointless picture, to be honest.

Well it was pretty hideous before too. The garden does have some lovely trees where you can rest your weary eyes.

But what about the noise? Whichever way you look at it, it is still very close to the M25!

I wonder if a musician bought it, would they be inspired to compose a British equivalent of "Autobahn" using the incessant rhythmic pounding of vehicles over the concrete blocks to characterise the life and energy of the motorway, there might also be an influence from the railway but Gatwick with E/W runway might be too far away to add any meaningful tempo or specfic and relevent comment.

@Abbafan1972 Well for sure I'm not saying WestByfleet 3 times, lest this taste bypass appears in my own pad.

Not sure what this means?

That's peculiar, as you're the one who referenced the film " Beetlejuice". Presume you've watched it and how it summons up its eponymous ghost.

I've lived near the M25, but nowhere near this near. The hum is constant but didn't really bother me. This is very near and there's no escape from it even in this "luxury". But now I'm off to play "Autobahn", maybe the full 23 min version.

Yes, I get the say Beetlejuice 3 times but you lost me with the WestByfleet thing.
