So stark and cold. I always think it's a shame when older properties are stripped of any original features. Cinema rooms should belong in mansions only imo...blue_max_3 said:Money and taste are not always the best of bedfellows. This is my old flat after a property developer 'weaved their magic' over it and added a cool £1m to the price. I have nothing but contempt for it.

Now we like adequate off street parking but this house takes that to the extreme. I suppose it is the ultimate low mainetance "garden" though!0 -
Bits of that I don't mind but they have gone a bit extreme and lost a lot of the character that property should have.blue_max_3 said:Money and taste are not always the best of bedfellows.

What I do wonder is why they've chosen these photos. Imagine if you actually wanted to know what the property looked like! At least you get three close-up shots of sinks and two of ceiling lamps from below??!

Looks like they used the same material for the kitchen, bathroom and fire surround.
Not my cup of tea tbh, would love to see what it looked like before the 'Paul Daniels' touch.1 -
