I think it has potential but looks like it would cost a fair bit to sort it out. I love the garden with the trees

lovely. It should be listed, but doubtless someone will ‘modernise’ it and ruin it 🙄

What a gorgeous house and garden! I'd definitely keep the bathroom suite. 😊

I really like this house but why are the windows in picture #12 upside down?

So the small opening windows could be reached.

Reminds me of a wardrobe we had when I was wee. I was terrified of it!

Now't wrong with pink. Much better than grey or magnolia.

Did my front bedroom walls in pink with dark red woodwork.

All a matter of taste, and whether despite the personalised decorating the property is desirable in all other respects.

The 1 bed flat conversion I purchased over 20 years ago had blood red painted walls and ceiling in the big bedroom, apparently in an entirely misguided attempt by the owner to make the very voluminous room feel more cosy.

I looked past all that because the very rare victorian architectural elements remained intact (expensive marble fireplaces, original covings/ ceiling roses, 15 inch high skirting boards, 6 panel 7 foot high doors, sash windows, etc).

However, were it not for those retained features I would have definitely walked away from the property. Decoration can be changed, restoring valuable structural features not so much.
