    For those who like to mix dicing with death and bathing 😬
    I typically just make toast in the bath for the same effect

    I have not often seen the phrase 'not one for the faint hearted' in an estate agent's description, but I can see their point https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/144118316#/?channel=RES_BUY
    The camera lens used makes things look worse, with wonky angles everywhere. I am a bit worried about what appears to be a removed wall downstairs.

    It looks to me as if someone threw a wedding cake at the ceiling, and it stuck.

    Picture 7 - imagine trying to work in that kitchen!  https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/151527125#/?channel=RES_BUY
    Picture 9 - I doubt there is headroom to stand in front of the toilet!

    They've squeezed a flat into the loft space. They should have made it 1 bedroom and used the space more sensibly, but they've been determined to get 2 bedrooms in the space.

    It looks much better as a floorplan, than it does in the photos. 

    What is ... that? 



    I'm guessing, but am not confident, that space is behind the small door here. 


  • Perhaps a space for storing unused pictures - it wouldn't take anything else wider, and let's be honest, anyone moving from anywhere with normal walls is probably going to have a few they no longer have space for!

    Otherwise - you could pop your skis there. Except that anyone who has money to go skiing would probably not buy it in the first place. Hmmm. Surfboard? No, probably not deep enough... :lol:
