A lot of colour going on in this one and an odd upstairs layout.

I used to live on the same road and love the location so I wouldn't turn it down if I could afford it. Would just to set aside some money and time for painting before I moved in...

Blimey.

I wonder what it would be worth if it were decorated and painted externally a little more traditionally shall we say.

There are plenty of terraces in Bristol with houses painted in vibrant colours and they're fab. That road, however, doesn't have any other brightly painted houses so the one in the ad sticks out like a sore thumb. In my opinion, the style of houses on that road doesn't really lend itself to being painted over in one colour. I prefer the red brick.

Makes it stand out on Streetview!  Agree it does look out of place in that road.

Not sure which is less nice, the kitchen or the bathroom

My vote is for the bathroom.

With that little series of offerings, I wonder what your exact search criteria were.

Cheap Near Birmingham, I think. 
The South Wales Valleys are usually good for some interesting works-in-progress too.

The description is what really makes this one, and the total lack of knowledge about basic sentence structure.

I wonder if this was written in welsh & then translated ? I can't believe anyone actually talks or writes like that - some very odd phrases indeed.
